In Progress for La Luz De Jesus Coaster show. Sketch started at Tom of Finland drawing workshop

About three weeks ago I pulled a double header, so to speak. I did the Tom of Finland drawing workshop in the early afternoon, then went over to the Gallery Girls drawing event at The Other Door Bar on the edge of Burbank and North Hollywood. At over 100 degrees that day, it was literally hotter than fuck. My friends and I have joked about ball sweat, but the first time I’ve ever seen dripping ball sweat was at the TOF drawing workshop that weekend.

We’re coming up on submission deadline for the La Luz de Jesus Coaster Show, one of the biggest art shows in Los Angeles and one of the most eclectic. So I started looking through the sketchbook for ideas, and one of the best came from a sketch I did that weekend in question.

Last year, La Luz accidentally posted both sides of a double sided coaster as individual entries. We worked it out. But to avoid confusion, I announced earlier today on Instagram (@FetishArtist on IG) that I would not be submitting b-sides. This piece above is supposed to the back side of the coaster, but I’m having second thoughts. It’s certainly bold, and I’m liking how it’s turning out.

The lesson I learned from last year’s coaster show is don’t hold back. The most hardcore coaster sold, and it was only viewed online.

I’ve Got to Escape

20170629_122242-460x818

The new schedule on the driving gig has put me in a spot. I keep finding myself clawing at the walls of my mind to get out. In reality, out of the house. A diner, a bar, a park, the beach, anything away from home where I can sketch and draw.

What makes this even weirder is I’m trying a new diet. I’m eating normally, but I’m only drinking water. Sounded fine until I realized that most of my outside activities are beverage-centric. Coffee shops, breweries, and bars do not take kindly to guys ordering water. It’s also fucking with my head. I’d love to ride down to Dog Haus to eat, but most of my drawing stuff right now is a little too hard for drawing in public.

When you’re just drinking water, food also tastes different. That awesome fast fatty food doesn’t taste so great with just water. It’s days like this I miss living around the corner from Fantasy Makers. I had a spare key and would hang out in the kitchen, help out here and there and draw.

Holly cow, I forgot to upload this piece long ago. It still needs more ink, but I was seriously thinking doing an adult coloring book at the time.

So I’m kinda cooped up here for the day until things start cooking this evening. There’s still plenty to do here today, I just kinda need my happy fix.
