Heh I think ‘doodles vs art’ is one of those ’square is a rectangle’ situations, except a little more subjective. Maybe it’s the simplicity of the drawings (and the fact that they’re titled ‘doodles’) that makes you feel like they don’t qualify as art, but they have a lot of character. That’s what I like. And I’m not sure what the actual artistic term is, but I enjoy the visual timing- it’s solid in its own slightly sparse, not quite disjunct style.

So the point is that you can stop worrying because I AM indulging in them.

((But mostly I thought it was funny that ‘heart’ and ‘art’ rhymes.))

isn’t the fun of doodles is that they are not “art”? They are doodles and by God, from time to preferably very soon after time, we must indulge in them!!

I just happened by your blog through a long series of links. I didn’t know much about you before, but now that I’ve scrounged around in the last few years of your posts, I feel like I know…

…some.

Mostly, I just wanted to comment and say that I heart your art. No lie.

Comment on Why I Hate the Sun by Jackie

Jackie — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 03:02:23 +0000

I think I hate the sun for 2 basic reasons. My eyes are sensitive and they feel so much better on overcast days.

I also don’t like to be hot. I live in the south and I equate the sun with heat.

I would love to live in Nome, Alaska during the time of year when it is dark most of the day.

I know we need the sun, but I count it as a blessing from God when I when overcast cool days.

After all this time of checking everyday now you add something to this blog. Just as my crappy workplace started blocking blogs. For some strange reason I can still check MIB’s from work. Hmmm.

Good to see you’re still around Mr. Sho.

‘Twas I that offered to blurb your book. I’d like an advance copy, please (obv., I’d have to if I were to blurb).

Thx!

Am I the only one wanting a photo and description of Eugene’s salad pizza? My inner fatty loves reading about all the food you guys eat. You all look like you need an anti histamine.

haha Zoe! Well, a well-made costume never goes to waste. I keep putting on my “I’m successful with lots of money and power and koala bears and a jet ski” costume every year. Still waiting for the success/money/koala/jet-ski accessories to come in and complete the look. eerrrrr…one day!

Just watching the video on youtube made me feel uncomfortable! It was hard to watch.

I’ve been in frighteningly awkward moments like that before. When moments like that occur, either (a)leave the room and hide, or (b)not say anything.

I LOVE YOUUUU.
:D

Well I was browsing the internet today and I thoroughly freaked out. I actually inaugurate my ex-girlfriend pictures on the internet. I have no thought when she did this but my ex-girlfriend was making revealed with some other teen. Does anyone contain any info on this ex-girlfriend site?

In response to Michael’s blog: Wow people are idiots! But I do love it so…
In response to Cameron: Wow you can’t smoke on your own balcony? THAT’S retarded. I’m severely sensitive to cigarette smoke, so I hate getting a whiff of it even in places where I’m expecting it…but that’s messed up. Poor smokers…should be allowed to ruin themselves on their own balconies! :( Seriously. P.S.- that last sentence wasn’t sarcastic; I really meant it.

Are you wearing an Ugly Christmas Sweater in the doodle atop (fancy for “at the top”) of your homepage?
If so, that’s stellar.
If not, sorry for wasting your time**

Hi people, it is Thanksgiving Day! I’m happy with my extra day off, and I am planning to make something fun that’ll probably involve a moto trip and seeing something new in Bethpage I haven’t seen yet.
You write something new at Thanksgiving?

I’m so bored. I wish you doodled every day. But then the doodles would probably depreciate in value. Like gold. Can’t have too much of a good thing. Ok, you’re right. Doodle sparingly. Damn you and your wisdom.

p.s. nice doodle.
