One thing that keeps me from printing all-day everyday is my inability to crank out designs to print. I work very well with Photoshop and Illustrator to come up with things based on photographs or other source material, but I’m not a great illustrator and I envy the designers who are fluent with pen and paper. I wish I could download infinite original images from my brain.
Well, the truth is that I can download infinite images from my brain, but they look funny because I can’t draw. See the above drawings inspired by this week’s hottest news items for proof.
I’m starting to think I should just go with it.
yes, go with it
I took a drawing class once (well, I took it twice), and I learned that most of us reach an age (usually around 7) where we begin to be able to judge our version of reality – our drawrings [sic] – against real reality. And when we do this, we see that we suck. And we stop failing/trying. So our drawring abilities freeze at about a 7-year-old level.
I know mine has, and when I look at your drawrings, I’m inexorably drawn to feelings of nostalgia and innocence. They were clearly drawn by a 29-year-old second grader.
You’re the total dick
