✍️🩷 Caricatures are folly, follow me onto paper stage sketchery: art journal treachery drawing upon its Friends in art, fiends at heart. Welcomed sparks against the dark. Those who dare to share cartoon poetry infusion self delusions pipe dream confusion will get Workshop renditions from an outsider voice, art is a gamble, despair is a choice. Today’s offering is a welsh enchantress who referred to me as an artist despite all my red flags which I wear as a cape. Weird to the bone. There is no escape

It's my 12 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

And everything changed the day I started posting on here. I have made many, lifelong friends that I’m eternally grateful for.

There are people on here that have made this life thing a little easier just by existing and creating strung together words and art that I am in constant awe of.

I’m just going to name a few that immediately come to mind but please know that I appreciate every interaction anyone has ever had with me and my words.

There are people whose names should be on this list that are no longer in this world but still live on by what they created, Lauren and Michael.

Thank you all for the inspiration over the years.

Loads of love

The paper stage recreational sketch club is grateful to have an audience that dares to share like @yellannsshitshow @wildsoles84

Since January 2021 my lovely friend @secretagentsunshine has lent her likeness to recreational sketchibitionism in a project I have titled The Diamondrea Dossier, an incredible show where the audience glow while the watermelon grow in the dirt soil of my avant- garden Paper Stage Art journal

[ryanlowrie]

The paper stage project begat as a sketch journal of fever dreams and belles exquisite. This page of my cartoon crusade was the influence of @daisydemilkers

[ryanlowrie]

I call my art journal the Paper Stage. It is a diary of people who inspired me to be a friend in art, a fiend @ ❤️ and a spark against the dark. Today’s muse in use was @bootyrockincowgirl420 because she is a ravishing enchantress and art dares us to share

[ryanlowrie]

I sketch bodies eclectic into a Paper Stage. Special spicy projects since i t’were an inappropriate age. Randos ask how does one increase their odds of being my art partner, the answer is simple: share the wares. Likes are polite, shares are better. She who ignores the effort will find this project forgets her. If you share multiple arts of mine and I still don’t draw you don’t worry, I’ve probably constructed a narrative in which you are only sharing my efforts out of pity because art has only been just rewarding enough to make me a pretentious prat but not successful enough to pursue altruism. Happy holidays to all my secular followers like @secretagentsunshine and merry Christmas to my superstitious Sallies and pallies. This artist will self destruct in five seconds…,

Two gestures one sword. The Paper Stage art journal thanks @signsofabiscuit for daring to share. I look forward to drawing more of her

Life cannot imitate art as only the living can make art and the act of being alive is only a temporary reprieve from the staunch conservative orthodoxy of non existence. This here is page 15 in my Paper Stage sessions of @mylastknownexistence with two painted canvases on top. My pencil never meant to imitate her, only to sing my version of her song in a lively way

[ryanlowrie]

• art is by design queer behaviour which is why conservatives throw us under the bus so eagerly. Nobody has to be queer. Nobody has to make art. Nobody has to transition. Nobody has to wear prescription glasses but we get to because collective efforts made it possible.

• symbolism is kind of dumb. Hearts don’t look like two humps pointing south. Hearts look like Borg potatoes with tubes sticking out. Houses don’t look like triangles on top of squares. If your carpenter made you that house you’d never talk to him again even after his father who art in heaven told you to turn the other cheek and give ALL of your money to the poor and you ignored God who art in heaven

• velvetglove23 of Instagram infamy is in my art journal the Paper Stage because I celebrate softness. All the hard men I’ve ever known were scared straight and I’m not going to live in fear out of respect to the collective efforts of the queer bleeding hearts who were crushed by Christians along their way to the market

A lady keeps a @dirty--diary and permits my pencil to explore her themes. The Paper Stage project is grateful for her daring to share

[ryanlowrie]

from nonsense to nuance. a whimsy to your screen. An art journal draws upon its friends and its fiends. For those who dare to share the serpent eats its tail. Sketchibition carrion, the Paper Stage prevails!

Emma is in my sketchbook because she expressed her interest in my art. When you’re ready to be drawn you will find the courage to express your interests

[ryanlowrie]

If kink were a martial art @eroticsallyfranklin would be Shaolin master. Bawdy study smutty buddy who dares to share. For those about to art we salute you with a Page of the Paper Stage.

Dear @mad-again

Thank you for being a muse and fueling my vampire art trip. Sketching your essence took my art journal to a better place than it t’were. Paper is a stage, the page is the thing. Because you dared to share my pencil got to sing. Oh, what tales we get to tell
