Back in Montreal

Andreas — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 15:44:49 +0000

ALRIGHT!

1) Back in Canada, saw Gainsbourg on the plane (great, lots of nice Sfar drawings inside and I felt somewhat embarrassed for watching it in between kids and old people thanks to A LOT of nude things), as well as the terrible Alice movie, and now its time to get work and become a normal citizen.

2) Scanned old and new sketchbook things, here are some news ones:

(drawn during the Argentina vs Germany game in New York)

And I put some new photographs of of past ones here, looking like this:

3) I`m also working on the digital version of my comics and I`m thinking about a general overhaul of this site.

Here is a test version from two days ago:

4) ET PLUS

- I`m midpoint through the Wire Season 5 and sad that its soon to be over

- I still have not seen INCEPTION and its hard to avoid spoilers at this point

- Puzzle Quest 2 is fun

- I`m exited to listen to the new Arcade Fire Album

- Great Looney Tunes Captures

- Some John Serverin drawing bits I liked:

(The rest can be found HERE)

Hope everyone has a great rest-week ahead!

Guess who graduated?

Indeed!

Happy jumping times begin NOW and everyone looks just as exited as I am!

I will do some reprints of the diploma later this year and I will sell them probably at tcaf.
(And Ms. tiff, you will get a super special version FOR SURE!)

I also saw:
- Toy Story 3 (OK, Totoro!, too long)
- Get him to the Greek (Alright, too long)
- Predators (boring)
- The Wolfman (nice casting, fun small scenes in between, fun)
- Season 1 and 2 of THE WIRE (great!)
- Clash of the Titans (yawn)
- Up in the Air (fun to watch in a plane)
- The first episodes of “Louie” (ho-hum)
- New episodes of Entourage and Futurama (Entourage = same old, Futurama = surprisingly fun)

Oh, and I did this comic for the fun guys of SENFGURKE, their theme was Struwwelpeter and I took THIS GUY that was the main reason for nightmares as a kid (sorry, only German):

Now too my parents house to get some sleep and THEN BACK TO MONTREAL, yay!

Press Start!

Andreas — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 15:53:40 +0000

HELLO!
Press Start! opens tomorrow in Montreal at Gallery Headquarters!

If you are into funky art, 8 bit Video Games or a nice vernissage, GO and belong to the hip crowd!

-> Here is a flickr photoset with a peek at it <-

My humble contribution:

And one of the many sketches that came before it (notice that WARIO was still his spouse, not Luigi):

Watercolor looks WAY nicer in person and therefore gives a perfect reason to go!

ALSO:
Scott C. contributed something as well!

New York Impressions

Andreas — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 15:29:25 +0000

Some random pictures from New York City:

(whole wheat bagels, big enough to feed 398 people anywhere else in the world)

(After Goal number 4 was shot for the German Team against Argentina)

Only two more days in this pretty city, then its OFF TO COLOGNE!

Comics about my stay here will be posted later and I hope everyone is enjoying this fresh new week (or the short Holiday weekend)

NOW: Off to the Metropolitan Museum!

Printed?

Andreas — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 00:21:21 +0000

PRINTED!

The two diploma issues are done, the one on the left 32 pages
the one on the right, 24!

I`m happy and I can not wait to work on the next one.

But before I start, travel madness as follows:

All of this between tomorrow and the 21st of July.

I hope I will be able to survive all of those hours waiting in airports and train stations but I have a sketchbook, 3982 unheard Podcasts and Season 1 of THE WIRE to kiss me softly into being awake.

I`m looking forward to do some awesome printing stuff in New York (to hand out to at the Diploma Presentation), I can not wait to see my friends again and to FINALLY graduate.

Next post from New York, probably with pictures of weirdos, art stores and empty streets.
