Two More Finds

I’ve been moving stuff out of the office and into my home.  I came across two ink drawings on copy paper.  Initially they were part of a series of letters.  I started to write a friend of mine a fairy tale.  I thought that I would very much like to receive in the mail a story in sequence with illustrations, therefore, I reasoned, my friend would too.  I sent the first installment.  I heard vague remarks.  I started on the second, and here are two of the illustrations accompanying that installment.  I got the feeling that my friend did not like receiving the installments enough to justify the effort, so I never sent the second part.  The drawings found their way to a folder, and I found them as I started to go through old files.  So there you have it!  Now they’re here.

    That sounds like a sad fairytale right there.

    Jeez Louise.

    Illustrate the story of some one not wanting a serialized fairy tale mailed to them and send it to me in the mail and I’ll read it.

    Nowadays, if some one puts a stamp on something I call it going the extra mile.

  2. Is that blood on her hands? Looks like a gory tale. I love the hatching on the walls and in the forest background though — really sets the mood. Good work.

    Yeah, it’s blood. Some of the details are pretty fuzzy, but if I remember it correctly the story was sort of dumb.

    Whether the story was dumb or not, it’s still a super cool idea. You could do it again and pick a different person . . .
