God bless the Onion

Pointing out absurdity is easy.

Doing it and raising a laugh is another thing all together.

Friend Made Good

An old friend of mine from Ottawa (who I haven't seen in 20 odd years) has really made a name for himself as an artist. We all knew he had talent and its clear that he's found a way to channel it into a pretty cool living.
His blog is here .
I've pinched and posted a few links from him over the last year or so and there's usually something interesting to ponder in his posts.
The Sci-Fi orientation may not be to everyone's taste, but the art is cool and as I said he's a good guy (from what I remember!)
His studio is here
Chris and his partner Ken have made quite a name for themselves and are very much in demand. Their work graces magazine covers and various media and has a style that's pretty much unigue to them.
Seeing this success is heartening as Chris spent a period of time trying to figure himself out way back when. (Some of us are still on that quest!)
Good stuff eventually happens to good people.
That can only be a good thing.
I'm pretty sure the images posted have some sort of copyright protection, so I hope the fact that I'm not selling anything will go some way to minimising any annoyance they may have that I've posted the pictures.
I'll take them down if they ask.

I have a couple of days off before heading to the US and am already bored so I'll probably post more bits and pieces over the next 48 hours.

Love to all

Silly link

Hey,

I'm back from the US and trying to piece together work strands that seem to be unravelling. I'll be hitting the road soon yet again, but will try to post some pics from Miami along with some observations of a cynical, jaded nature......until then , in the tradition of the "big portions" culture I've just left behind, I'll leave you with this link, courtesy of my friend Chris:
