How organic are your organics?

Saturday, July 12th, 2008

I am really not much of a conceptual illustrator. I was thinking about organic products and their proliferation on super market shelves. It seems strange to me that companies can produce organic products in abundance without charging an arm and a leg. The company I was thinking about doesn’t have much information online about the farms they use, although their products are certified organic. Which got me wondering if we shouldn’t be questioning the organic products we buy to see if they really match our understanding of ‘organic’ (which, like the concept of normal, is in a bit of a flux at the moment if you ask me). I’m sure there is a more interesting way to develop a picture around the idea, but since I’m a literal blockhead that’s all I managed to come up with. It would be nice to make something more if it though, it’s a message I would like to get across to people, personally, so I don’t mind investing extra time into seeing if there’s a more elegant yet effective way of doing it.

Or… I could simply write an article about it which would be much more to the point that any picture :s

Fried eggs and magazines

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

I was sketching in my other style, the one that is simpler and more stylized, and wondering if I should develop more work in this style.

Cinderella

Monday, July 7th, 2008

Was playing with negative space and definition of shape with color verus line. It evolved into a Cinderella picture, with some rather hot ugly step-sister and step mother.

Armless

Sunday, July 6th, 2008

I like amputating people in sketches. Sometimes I feel that limbs just get in the way. Pink and grey marker.

Bah

Friday, June 20th, 2008

She says bah. Again, more tired sleepy sketches, trying to find something that will make me happy without being overt.

Various girls

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

It’s been a bit slow with sketches, what with work and the comic. Trying to make more inoffensive-looking girls, though it feels dishonest to me, since personally I don’t see the problem with having them nude. But the market won’t stand for it.

That’s what you get when you use two coloured brush pen markers.
