hey guys have returned! with shiny new arts for you. be honest who missed me? --

ANY WHO good gravy is my grasp on the passage of time really THAT poor!? has it been a YEAR!? since my last style challenge post? URG! I'm so disgusted with myself for that! I feel neglectful and dirty...

BUT LADIES AND GENTS THAT HAS CHANGED! I come bearing gifts and a renewed promise to COMPLETE the style challenge. starting right NOW with this! the last challenge I had completed from last year as well as 4 more that I have inked and ready for color that i have done recently, and thats just the beginning folks, my time away has done me well, the creative juices are FLOWING. so without further adieu, I would like to re-introduce you all to the style benders challenge. - [link]

Todays Victim 7 of 20 : Bill Plympton one of the many artists I had the pleasure of meeting at san diego comic con in 2007 he was an absolute joy to encounter and he even drew me a little angel guy in my sketch book. Bill's works like "sex & violence", "i marriage a strange person" and "guard dog" amongst his many short films are what I was glued too in the early 90's plopped in front of the TV as a child all wide eyed at the scribbly people be disemboweled , ground down to nothing or kissed then exploded. good times man, good times. but it was his kind of dark humor that dragged me into a place I was all to willing to go, the morbid cartoon world that was liquid television and cartoon sushi.

About the Picture: the drawing itself is FROM a year ago however for the style challenge I don't think age factors into the quality since it's not my style that can age ( makes sense?) but Bills style is very unique to the challenge because it's so messy and so unique I could not do it digitally. I followed in Bills footsteps and took to my canvas with color pencil and scanned the result. I TRIED to walk another Mile in Bill's shoes by filming my drawing as it progressed but that proved to be more trouble then it was worth. however it was fun to color like I was 5 again. Bills scribbly style was what attracted me to his work and it comes as no surprise he is independently published, who else would hire someone with such a distinctive style? it's a risk big companies are not willing to take so he financed his cartoons all himself and got them made how he wanted, yea...thats the way to do it!

Bill Plympton, a man who has my utmost respect and whose style I hope I did Justice too. you be the judges.
