Who says you have to wait for print to see illustrations?

I usually don't like uploading until illustrations are published (even if it is for my own magazine), but I can't find anything else I've scanned at the moment.

You can find this one for "Laugh Riot" in Instigatorzine 9.

Have we let you down? Maybe.

Trying to find someone to primarily run the blog, but the only person who has access to a lot of different things, at least Instigatorzine wise, are either me or Keith.

Trusting a person with IZ secrets shouldn't be a problem since there are no IZ secrets.

For now, if you live in the Jersey City area, you should definitely be checking out the Jersey City Artists' Studio Tour. It's well worth the effort you'll be putting into walking and traveling all over Jersey City, invading many artists' personal spaces.

Is it invasion if they let you? Probably not.

Check out The Black Hollies while you're walking around 4th Street in Jersey City. They're a good band based in Jersey City. I discovered them when I was checking out the Grove Street Creative Market three weeks ago. The Black Hollies will be playing around 8p on Saturday night.

Meanwhile, Instigatorzine 8 is on its way to the printers.

Sketch Day May 3

Sketch Day May

Tim Fitzgerald is The Punisher

I participate in an art blog known as Area 221. It is a collective of illustration and art students from NJCU, sharing their most recent sketches and art with each other. Hopefully people are inspired by each other's work when they do post it, but lately, the blog has been experiencing some down time.

The blog isn't quite as active as it used to be, maybe because there's not active recruitment going on or maybe the most frequent contributors have taken on a much busier lifestyle.

But that isn't much of an excuse, is it?

Artists should always be drawing, like writers should always be writing, chefs should always be cooking, etc.

If you're gonna get better, you have to keep doing it. (And doing it well).

I couldn't help myself.

Anyway, every May, the entire month is dedicated to Sketch-a-Day-in-May as a way of celebrating the month Area 221 was established. This is my first Sketch Day May...sketch.
