Kings of Subterrainia.
Some weeks are good, and others are… difficult.
I’ve had a couple of the latter.
I don’t know if this book will be a graphic novel or more of a catalogue of paintings.
I like the idea of a quick and dirty novel, but being at a gallery, there is a calling to present my work in a “higher form.”
There is a lot to ponder for sure.
I have 20 sheets of 16 x 20 masonite in my cart at Aboveground, but given the subject matter, it would be interesting to paint on objects, giving second life to pieces collected in subterranean miasma. Though that’s something I’d consider more if I had a studio, the thought of bringing that into my home is less than desirable. Someone would certainly kick me out.
I think I’m dropping the one-character storyline as well. Though it was always going to be vignettes, I think switching back and forth between characters is a good idea.
I have pages written for the old character, Gerald, but I have the idea of having characters based in other subway systems. Gerald is based in the TTC. But having a character in NYC, London, and Paris could be cool.
The working title is now Kings of Subterrainia.
No drawings this week.
