    Portrait of my daughter.
    We were playing with nylons and toy guns this weekend.
    Started as a photograph but ended up like this. Don't really feel like it fits with the photography thread anymore.

    @Pupato - an art jam is where a group of people all contribute art based on a central theme. Warren's Remake/Remodel threads are an example of this.

    so that´s what i´ve been doing for two years without knowing, art jam! i like that name, it has the sound of music. Thanks @Greasemonkey for answer a silly question & for this Venture bros serie, its animation!!! i´ve just seen the first scene from the first chapter & it looks very cool! Ooohhh, fuck! & i gota work to do tomorrow... With a good series i can be a real junkie : )

    @kperkins: yeah, I'll run it here in Art And Moving Pictures.

    @Pupato: I know everyone says this about their favourite show, but The Venture Bros is the best thing on TV. I strongly recommend watching the episodes in order because of the creators' attention to continuity.

    March has been one of my favorite collections of art thus far in the Monthly threads.

    You guys have been constant inspiration.

    I made this from an old play script of Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream, which had lived a long and happy life before expiring peacefully of natural causes, getting rescued from a recycling bin, and being violently ripped up.

    A little cartoon I whipped up this afternoon here - just to prove I could, I guess? I dunno - apparently I was channeling Bryan Lee O'Malley.

    @Neil--that's lovely. I really like how your work seems to coalesce and emerge organically from the lines and hues that make it up. The textures, as always, are amazing.

    I built a forest clearing/campsite into the back of a moving truck with my art collective, The Blood Dumpster in about 4 hours. We let people hang out, eat marshmellows and tell scary stories all while in 25F degree weather. I took a couple of bad photos of it and stuck it into my Flickr account. It's really hard to take photos with a point and shoot in the near pitch dark, and to even remember to document such things when you're having so much fun.

    The walls were made by taping cardboard boxes down (insulation), then stapling black fabric over that, then stapling homemade hunting blinds to that, then weaving the branches through the hunting blind, tying it down with twine in other places and yet still more stapling in other places (seriously, my favourite item in the world is a good staple gun). To hide the bottom where the branches hit the ground, we found a huge bundle of dried out vines/sticks and stapled those in for good measure. The ground were these woven wicker mats that we dumped leaves and twigs all over for that authentic woodsy crunch. We obtained logs, an old cot mattress and sleeping bags for people to sit on. We taped battery powered LED xmas lights to the ceiling, then covered them with a blue crocheted fabric and filled the fabric with all our plastic bags/contractor bags/the batting inside an old blanket to diffuse the light. We had a tap light that was painted to look like the moon shoved into a corner. The campfire itself featured several small flashlights with colored gels taped on and one central battery powered lantern with varying colored gels striped over it and some jagged cut gels to look like "fire". We then piled rocks and sticks all over it so it covered the flashlights and all you could see were the beams of colored light coming out.

    We played in there from 9p-1a, then closed up the truck and drove off. We tore down the walls, dumped anything we weren't planning on keeping in our homes and had the truck looking like a regular old moving truck inside of 1 hour. It was returned with the rental company none the wiser.

    @ Neil Ford-nice one! kindamushroomy

    This is an ad I did today for K6 cards, a small press/print company here in Toronto. The cool part is that K6 is printing this years SEQUENTIAL, the official zine of the Toronto Comic Arts Festival and this is going to be a 5 x 7" promo inside the front cover.
