BONUS (please contain your excitement): A fragment from my "visual journal". . .
"The post-divorce years. . ." / Jan. 2011
This insane sketch was inspired by a number of sources, including but certainly not limited to the following: Barbie (and friends), the film adaptation of Mommie Dearest, and a late nineteenth-century painting by John Singer Sargent entitled, The Daughters of Edward Darley Boit (which you should Google). I'm really interested in the magic and strangeness of childhood and all the bizarre horrors inflicted upon us by our parents. This doodle could become the basis for a proper drawing or painting.
I'm visiting everyone's blog during the snow days! Cool stuff, as usual. Yeah, you should do something with the sketch. And speaking of "all the bizarre horrors inflicted upon us by our parents," check out a truly twisted film called Dogtooth, which is nominated for Best Foreign Film this year.
