More mutants.

DID YOU KNOW?

-13 BILLION PLASTIC BAGS, 13 TONNES OF WASTE GOES INTO THE OCEAN EVERY YEAR?
Thought not.
ALSO
-PLASTIC CAN TAKE 450-1000 YEARS TO DEGRADE AND IN MARINE AREAS IT NEVER DOES.

Think of all the tampon applicators and macdonalds toys knocking about in the ocean still, dunno why the would be, but imagine..

I bought the book "Life" by David Attenborough as i love the documentary so much. Gave me real good pictures to copy from, but i've given it extra features like fins or eyes.
I always thought radioactive waste gave animals gentetic mutations, in a way it's pretty cool. Yet cuntish that our doings are making them into animal invalids. Like even though in Finding Nemo, Nemo wasn't genetically retarded by toxic waste.. i hated him cos he was such a spak.
Swear frogs are always knocking about in ponds that buzz around nuclear powerpoints. 

New Project on the go go..

Been given the word "Waste" to mess about with this time, which i like actually. Even though i've had a project before called "Decay" i've taken a different approach.
I've looked into mutant marine animals, and my inspiration is mainly "Blinky" from The Simpsons,  my mind is like a filing cabinet. It just pulled that random image from the back of my mind and that gave me something to go on.

The whole point of this project is to just draw shit, so i have. I drew some stuff when i was pretty fucked and it looked like this... The project is "Drawing Approaches" and i guess i have tried a different approach. Pony, Old music and joe in my room til the early hours created some of this shit i ain't gunna lie.
My goldfishes Jeanine and Gus where real inspiration. 
 i need a larger scanner, but the one i have is still dope. 
And more..
hup, octo.

It's no fun being nocturnal.

I don't know what i'm doing, normally it's normal for me to be up at this hour pottering about making something. But i'm not i'm just sitting in bed smoking and staring out of the window till sunrise, then sleep and wake up about 6.00pm. Missing out on important things, or i stay up and don't even go to sleep then go to uni and i'm like a zombie, can't even form a sentence.
I hate the project i'm currently doing, i should probably be emmersing myself straight into it like everyone else has, i'm not interested. I've done the whole CD design thing last year and the word i got is really gay.
Some people on my course are really really gay bellends.

Joe and i bought some fake blood and told sophie i got hit by some old sket in the kebabery in Charminster, she didn't really care. Rolled back over to sleep on the sofa, i love that about sophie.

Well, evidently it has been a long while..

But that's because i had started uni and was having frolics and antics to the plenty. Now i'm back to my routine of being nocturnal and sitting up just thinking about shit, like not "deep" shit, just stupid things. Like who else is up at this hour, what are they like, are they thinking the same? Obviously no one is.
My project i've started i feel is pretty lame, everyone else seems to be doing great on it. But designing a cd cover ect, i did that in the first term of college. Also i hate how big our illustration course is, like 70 people come on.
I was having doubts at first on my course wondering whether i should been doing Fine Art, but then heard what happens in that course being force fed shit. I realised i'm better off doing illustration.. Plus, you can't make a living of street art can you, unless you just put shitey stencils of "controversial" shit about. Blah.
I'm putting mother fucking shells about town, yeah that's right.
I went to the Oceanarium with a friend Mel, who is second year in illustration and that place is fucking cool.
I bought a bag of shells for like £3.50 and put "Flint Eastwood" on it, cos i'm cool and leaving them about.
Hopefully i will get my hands on using the fuck off printer in the studios to do some sick wheatpastings, eventually..

Ghost world..

I really can't sleep, and i have so much to do tomorrow. Whenever i'm like this i just read all my comics i have, well 'graphic novels.' Like i don't mean marvel stuff, i use that to renovate furniture, seriously..
Fucking love Ghost World by Daniel Clowes, i can't explain it, but it's fucking good.
Sort of in limbo now just waiting to go and be, but this place now is really strange at the moment.
I am writing shit, as it is 05.05am. But as many times i try and put my head down and sleep, it just doesn't work. I don't really expect anyone to read this, and if you do, i'm sorry you came across my blog ha. Isn't the most exciting thing lately, as i've been in a ghost world since april and just waiting to do something productive of my time.
Listening to Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Karl Pilkington podcasts when trying to sleep helped past few nights but now, nada. i always become insomniac in the summer, just stay up late watching films and making shit. But then i'm so shit in the day, can't make plans because i won't wake up.
This is boring what i'm writing.
Make your move.

Moleskine shit.

This is just some shit that i have knocking about in my moleskine books, cos i'm so fucking indie. Seriously though, they are just good to draw in..
 I bought one of those big packets of sharpies when i had an hour to wait at London Liverpool Street station, i swear i've wasted a quarter of my life at train stations. I kept drawing cluster like messes of colour for ages, i dunno why it came about. But yeah your not aloud to say brainstorm as you may offend someone, like how you can't say baa baa black sheep COS THAT'S RACIST. Or Merry Christmas signs in the streets COS IT MAY OFFEND SOMEONE. When the only people who are worrying about these sayings are middle class white people with too much time to think about things.

                                                    I really like drawing manky teeth.
This was a worm, then i realised worms don't have teeth but they should do as they eat mud, so it wants to be a leech. Someone said it's like the sandworms in Beetlejuice, maybe subconsciously  i've been thinking of them..
Little things..

Scrib.

I've written about these on my tumblr, my back hurts and i can't be fucked to write.

                                                                          Broke out.
I dunno why i drew this.

Back to the old blogging ways..

Even though old ways were tumblr more so, but i can juggle two on the go.
Back into drawing now, i'm myself now ha. Just want to be in a educational enviroment now and i mean that. I've been bumming around too long now, since april, that's spring. All summer i've just been passing through everywhere, too much of a drifter. Not that i don't like that, hate being confined to one thing or a boring routine. 
Gunna scan up some shit from my moleskine, i'm so fucking indie. Ah well, it's decent to carry and draw in. Listening to "The Ricky Gervais Guide To... the Arts (Unabridged)" and as much as i love karl pilkington, his opinion on art is annoying me. Art isn't just a space filler on the wall, ha. 

I went on about this on my tumblr blog but i will now on here, because i don't get it. Animals with rectangular pupils. These three animals have it...
A goat, you know is a mammal and it's a weird animal it like wants to be a sheep but isn't but is, sheep have the same weird eyes. So basically i'm going to say a sheep and a goat is the same thing. Just more horns.


With a frog like rec eyes is kinda not unusual just a frog isn't it.

And then a fucking octopus, like why, there is no connection in these animals, mammal, amphibian and mollusc type fish.
I don't even know why i'm making a post on this, it's well late, should be asleep as got to be up and drive someone.
Don't even know where my keys are, but oh well. 

But yeah, i'm craving a big tattoo soon.. It's been a while.
