older oil pastel & crayon anxiety stuff on newsprint. penny-a-sheet my beloved.

quotes are from William Gibson's 'A Season in Heaven: Being the Log of an Expedition After That Legendary Beast, Cosmic Consciousness' (1974) & Margaret Atwood's 'Speeches for Dr. Frankenstein," (2012) respectively.

Timestamp Roulette Art Challenge (sort of): Seeing is Believing

At first, I was going to make a realistic version of Welsh, Thatcher, Fraser and Ray just to be able to paste them on the Abbey Road album cover, but then Frannie wanted to be in the pic, too, so the Fab Four became the Even More Fab Five, and in the end I really couldn't bother with all the meticulous coloring and looking for clearer face references that fit the walking scene. So, a digital doodle.
