I am hoping that the people who may read this abortion of a blog are not the type of people that need to be told about basic common courtesy and general decent human beings. But obviously some are not, hence why this billboard at Yatala, Queensland exists.
I saw it last week and have been meaning to take a photo of it since.
I have a quick story about an incident between a friend of mine and a cab driver on Saturday night. Whilst enjoying a ride around Brisbane, turning at an intersection, I look behind to see if he made was still there only to see a Yellow Cab not even a foot behind his rear wheel. My friend (one of the nicest well, mannered polite people I know mind due) starts yelling at this cab driver telling him to stop being a dickhead, but in harsher terms. The cab driver thinking he knows what’s best decided to slow down keeping pace beside us and winds down his passenger window, only to collect some of my friends saliva. He just stayed there beside us after that, with no clue to us what he was doing, until we got a light that he couldn’t. Good work cabbie, I hope you enjoyed my mates spit.
Show up to work this morning and this bad boy is waiting for me.
To sum it up, it awesome. Hang out with friends I really haven’t had time to see lately. Rode bikes a lot, even with the epic amount of rain. Started Woodblock #6. Good times.
Here is a picture of clouds.
Gear Brisbane is celebrating it’s first birthday.
Tonight is the screening of The Revival. Tomorrow is an alley cat and party. Should be a good weekend. There is also talk of a swap meet starting at 12 on Sunday at Bike Polo at Musgrave Park.
…I got a little carried away. I have been wanting to do something with this for a while. More details soon.
Driving to the studio on Wednesday morning on the highway and someone’s car about 500 metres ahead of us just starts pumping out smoke. Drive past the dude, who is just standing next to his car and the smoke is just getting darker and darker by the second.
I was hoping it was going to explode or erupt in flames. I don’t think either happened. Looked pretty rad though.
This is where we were at the end of the 4th day of tracking. Finished a little early, so we did a little mixing. Vocals start today.
After 2 months of working of this idea in my free time, drawing designs, transferring images, carving, stabbing my finger, I have finally finished.
Since I started this idea, I have had an image of what I wanted the final product to look like. I am pleased with the outcome and it is extremely close to the version I have had in my head for some time.
This one was done on transfer paper with one print on either side.
I only did this one one transfer paper just to see how it it would turn out. If I can find some transfer paper without a glossy film, I might consider doing this again.
This is more what I am after. Print #3 first, let it dry then print #5 over the top.
Printed on to paper I pulled out of a sketch book. 110gsm cartridge paper I think. Turned out great. Only thing I look at wishing was a little better is that I put more ink on #5 before printing. Other than that, amazing and extremely satisfied.
I have some ideas on what to do next. I feel it is going to be an expansion of what designs and carving techniques I have been using, But as always, time and patience is needed.
