Anyone like lichens? This is what I've been drawing in the sketchbook lately.
I watched a couple of Ryan Trecartin's videos online this morning and I was certainly entertained, horrified, and completely disoriented at times. It was as if I was watching my brain's understanding of what went on in my early twenties or what a condensed bad acid trip would be like if there were endless amounts of makeup and hot glue guns. Trecartin made my morning coffee time seem like an experiment of the mind. Would my brain explode if I actually made it to the thirty minute mark? Will I go insane and never come back?
In the end, it just made me want to go play with him and his friends with costumes and wigs overflowing.
If you want to be confused, overwhelmed, annoyed, and entertained, watch these:

Sketchbook, lichens, Krystal Booth, 2013
After years of drawing pads, sketchbooks, and journals, I have found my favorite one - Crescent RendR No Show Thru Paper Sketchbooks. The one I'm working out of now is the hardcover 8.5x11" version. In terms of my excitement about this sketchbook, it can be summed up by the audience member (Amy Poehler) at 2:39 of this Oprah's Favorite Things skit on SNL.
