Friction, Baby – Pushing Ink

Jamming’s a state of mind. And Jamming I’ve been. Welcome back for today’s installment of “what is floating around in Mike’s brain?” There’s a lot of exciting jazz on the docket today so stay tuned….

I am the featured artist today in the Concord Variete. I will be showing some birds and birdhouse pieces from the Dwellings exhibit, some random bird pieces and a few new drawings that I put together yesterday and the day before. I really enjoyed making some small drawings “just for fun” as they were pertaining to no show and were really just on a whim.

They will all be framed and a cheap pick up if you can make it to Concord tonight. Here they are in no particular order.

Yup these two drawings were packed with some pink punch. As an artist, I really love pink and who knows maybe in everyday life I will one day own a pink caddy? You never know.

What do you think of this guy? I really dig this character. I was thinking Boss Tweed and Thomas Nast drawings, but way more innocent and a little more avian. I gotta get a book of Thomas Nast. He was the man.

Next we have another fine specimen of robot chasing a seemingly innocent bird. This doesn’t sound familiar to you does it? I can’t get enough of this stuff. But it beats blue dogs…

Next up is a little Valentine’s Day action for the robot in you. This guy has a heart and a trapdoor to show it!

Last but not least….I’ve been thinking about fishing and baseball lately. That is what I usually am thinking about long about the end of January. Why you ask? Because I live in a New Hampshire and it is cold and snowy, and I know that once fishing and baseball seasons arrive, there is only like 2 months of winter left. Ha.

Hope you folks have a good day. I’ll be back soon, and if you’re in Concord tonight, stop in and say Hello.

peace
-Mike
