Wed, 28 Dec 2011 08:32:21 -0700

Arium - 12.28.2011

"Arium," "Plenitude" and "Quagaar" are part of a series. "Arium" is a reference to the Great Circling poets of Arium, a sect on Golgafrincham (in the Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams) who used to live in remote mountain passes where they would lie in wait for small bands of unwary travelers, circle around them, and throw rocks at them. When the travelers cried out, saying why didn't they go away and get on with writing some poems instead of pestering people with all this rock-throwing business, they would suddenly stop, and then break into one of the seven hundred and ninety-four great Song Cycles of Vassillian.

Walrus - 12.28.2011

Walrus - 12.28.2011

I was doodling in my sketchbook and listening to football (which I don't like to watch, but I recently discovered the hilariously homoerotic commentary so sometimes I sit and listen) and I suddenly wanted to draw a walrus, wholly disregarding the glaring detail that I have no idea what a walrus looks like. So I drew what a walrus ought to look like, based on what I remembered of walruses I've seen before. Key differences I've since become educated on include: —flat tail like a whale's got. —duller tusks. —no hinges. So this is my drawing of a walrus.
