Dicky Short Art
May 13, 2011 – 9:39 am
I wanted to post pretty much all of Dicky Short’s art above, and then just ended up doing a kind of crap job of it when I chose too much. But you don’t have to worry about that, just go over to his blog and art stash to see everything yourself. Also Dicky has got a new comic out, recently reviewed over at Avoid the Future.

Devilman TV Credit Sequences
May 12, 2011 – 7:38 am
From the 1972 Japanese TV version of Go Nagai’s Devilman. Sort of related: When I was 15 I got a free VCR, antenna, and a found-in-the-trash computer monitor that had audio/video line-ins and with that combo I made myself a TV (VCRs often have their own TV tuners). From there I could watch the weird UHF and second-tier PBS broadcasts from local stations like the Saturday Kung Fu movies, Party In Progress, animation festivals, Cookin’ Cheap with Laban and Larry, Bob Ross’s painting show (of course), this hilarious German top 40 music video show called B.I.G. full of Meatloaf, Michael Jackson, and insane German techno, and the Urban Xpressions music show with _______ and Roz standing in front of a fake brick wall backdrop and operating the camera themselves. I swear I taped these ultra violent and mind-warping Devilman features off of channel 48 or 35 or something here in Philly… I don’t know where else I would have gotten it at that time. They were probably Devilman: The Birth (here’s part 5 of someone’s upload of the thing, the part with the demon battle) and Devilman: The Demon Bird which are OVAs.
What’s an OVA, anyway? I would like to read the original comics. Dash has.

Francesca Pasini Art
May 10, 2011 – 5:03 am
I the integration of hand lettering in much of the work on Francesca Pasini‘s drawing blog here, and the painting directly in the sketchbook approach which always makes for a nice, chunky, faintly-paint-smelling drippy book—an impressive object.
Ryan Cecil Smith Art

I’m especially liking these sketch drawings that Ryan Cecil Smith created digitally with his finger as a stylus on a you-know-what. I like that he creates these appealing colorful works with a human touch in them even though they exist only as pixels. I like to think that I can also see evidence in the way he draws these sketches that he thinks like a comics artist and printmaker, which are things that he also does. It is the loose color fills given tighter definition by the hatching and line art that make me think of comics and printmaking. See more on his blog, here, and at Closed Captioned Comics.
