Do I Wanna Know?

 

such a good album man

I'VE ARRIVED AT PANIC STATION

MUSE SHOES
MUSE SHOES
MUSE SHOES

I made these about a month ago but was going to wait till The 2nd Law came out to post them.
But since the album leaked...so can my shoes, right?

(of all things I've made, these are what I'm most proud of ohmydeargodyes)

I'm Feeling This

I wasn't going to post these.
Cause there's a crappy story behind them.
But I was looking at them today...and thought...they're too good for me to just hide them from the interwebs and forget I ever made them.

So here you go.
Pop-punk Converse.
Which deserve better feet.

I hope to God he trips when he wears them.

I'M LEGIT NOW!

Ohmygod.
Wow.

I'm going to attempt to write this without sounding overly fangirly.

SHARPIE ASKED ME TO BE PART OF THEIR 2012 SHARPIE SQUAD!
*dead*

They wrote about me here:
http://blog.sharpie.com/2012/08/the-2012-squad-is-set/

AND OHMAHGOOTNESS LOOK AT WHAT THEY SENT ME!

WHAT IS AIR?!

No, seriously. I'm going ballistic.

And, to update, my laptop is still dead, unfortunately. :(
Don't be sad though...there's a new Muse single out in 9 days!
And then the album comes out in October
*dead again*

Inspiration

Not completely finished yet.
But it's due tomorrow, so I thought I might as well post what I have. :)

I still have to shade some of the hands, add details to the guitar, tea stain the background...and...something else I'm forgetting. >.<

An Eye For an Eye Leaves The Whole World Blind

Hi, everyone!
I know, it's been a while.
Sorry. :(

Life has gotten really busy.
For those who didn't read the label in my last post, I have moved...across the world.
I could describe in detail the ups and downs of this new place, but I won't keep you long. (UPDATE: my bad.)

And....here is my latest Sharpie creation.
Not my best; I realized the eye's shape was off after I hit it with the black Sharpie.

But if I only posted the best of what I did, that wouldn't be honest of me. :)


Lastly, a weekish ago, D4 gave me an award.
Once again, D4, thank you so much. 
Honestly, I'd give this back to you. The variety in your music taste definitely deserves another award. Especially because I don't see how you can do it. Man, I really respect you. :)

I'll follow through with the rules on this one:
Favourite Colour
Favourite Animal
Favourite Number
Favourite Drink
Facebook or Twitter
Your passion
Giving or getting presents
Favourite pattern
Favourite day
Favourite flowers

Color: Colors are most beautiful when they're in harmony with other colors. Picking just one would ruin that harmony.

Animal: Dogs, cats...anything fluffy and pettable. :)

Number: 25. Because I get more excited when there's a 25 pack of Sharpies rather than the normal 24. :D

Drink: Pakola. Oh, god it's so delicious.

Facebook or Twitter: Honestly, I hate both.

Your passion: I could say Sharpie art...but what I really want to do is make a difference. To, for once, do something positive for someone else.

Giving or getting presents: How about I tell a story to answer this. In this country, after coming out of a restaurant, you sometimes encounter a homeless family. Whenever we walk by these people, my dad turns to me and says "Give them the takeout. They need it more than we do." When I'm told to do this, I immediately start thinking about how delicious the food was, and my bloated stomach suddenly feels empty again. We give them the food and get into the car, and the greed inside me keeps imagining the steak I barely touched. But as I think about it, it dawns on me that this family is human too. The fact that I was lucky to be born into a family where we never have to worry about where the next meal will come from does not make me a better person. They are just as deserving as we are, and if I let greed and a bratty "I want more" attitude dictate my decisions, then I honestly don't deserve anything at all. That being said, giving presents is much more gratifying than getting. :)

Favorite pattern: Psychedelic art always amazes me.

Favorite day: Friday. It's actually a weekend in this country!

Favorite flowers: Lily of the valley. Gorgeous, gorgeous scent.

And now to pass this on. Really, I hate picking just 10 because I truly do love all of you. I apologize in advance for not linking. For some reason, my hyperlink button is being wonky. :(
1. Zepdragon- I don't know where you've been for the past few months, but seriously, I miss you and your wonderful wallpapers. You've been gone so long, my Sharpies are crying...
2. Pthalo- Yet another MIA blogger. Awesome art and music. Come back now.
3. Bouncin' Barb- You have the sweetest posts. On a bad day, I would definitely turn to you for a hug.
4. Hamza-  So entertaining. :)
5. Nas- When you read Wordsworth's poems, you think "Oh my god, he's such a beautiful person." That's the same feeling I get when I read your blog, Nas. :)
6. That Blond Guy- I swear, he's the next Jon Stewart...
7. Sketches And Other Stuff- Everything. Is. So. Adorable!
8. Rorschach Redemption-  Inkblot interpretations. What's not to love?
9. Epicality- Cute blog. Amazing friend. :)
10. Riot Kitty- Lolcats + rants. I rest my case.

Geez, this is the longest post in the history of this blog. So sorry about that. :/
And I'm also sincerely sorry about not keeping up with all of you.
I really can't tell you how much each and every one of you has meant to me. All your comments, honestly, saved my life.
But for now, this post has gotten long enough. I'll save the sappiness for another time.


*shower of love*

The Art of Sharpieing

At a Cruising Altitude

My Reflection Will Slowly Fade to Another Time

I'm out of doodles for now. Shall be on a Sharpie hiatus until I'm back home.

For now, here's some Sharpie art done by my friend Sherry.

I've recently persuaded her to make a blog, so you should ALL go follow her.

She's having mixed feelings about blogspot.

Go make her smile so she'll stay.

And now for the doodleage. Captions are her words, not mine.  :)

"Attempted Patriotism" - Just a design piece :) I used purple in it though, so it isn't exactly red, white, and blue.

"Cuts Marked In The March of Men" - Design. The lyrics are from a song by Coheed and Cambria. The title is the name of the song XD lol. Good song! You should listen to it :)

"Mannequin" - Well, it's not really sharpie art cause I used pen. It was in my sharpie drawing journal and I really liked it, so I just thought I'd send to ya anyways :D That's my actual drawing mannequin thingie I won at in a drawing and I put all the jewelry I never wear all over it.

"Music Box" - Unfinished :/ But I really like it! Um, there isn't really a whole lot to explain about that one XD

"Red" - I haven't a clue what he is. But he's cute! It's my first mixed sharpie/pen. I thought it turned out well :3

"Sarika" - My OC! (Original Character) That was the first time I drew her~ She is a zombie and her weapon of choice is a chainsaw. I don't remember what his name is, but I wanna say it's Calvin... haha. She has a halo and bat wings, she dresses like a punk teenage girl, and she has a lollipop in her hair :3

"Scared Indian" - He just looks like a scared indian lol. Another mixed sharpie/pen :3

"Spaceman!" - He's a spaceman! :DDD

"Summer 2011" - My newest piece. I dedicate it to you, actually :) I felt bad that I took so long to upload these, I thought the least I could do was draw a new piece just for you :) haha. AND I made it summer inspired to celebrate NO MORE SCHOOL! WOOT!

And my personal favorite....

"Black&White" - Just that, really. Another design. I really like it :3

Isn't she great? :D

I'd like to tickle your minds with one more thing:

The Tribute To Doodlers page. 

If you have any kind of art you've done, you really should send it to me.

Oh, and before I appear outdated, I'll correct myself.

I meant to say you should all join her site.

Blech, that sounds awful...

I'm Not Really Leaving. I've Laced My Heart Into You

I Woke and Felt The Dream's Burn Lingering in My Eyes

Sharpie Ink is Not Blood. It's The Juice of Creativity.

100 Followers of Peace!

Wow.
I honestly never imagined that I'd hit 100.
These past few months have seen a lot of tears. Thank you all for brightening my days.
I can't tell you how much I love and appreciate all of you. :)

Do You Remember When I Was Beautiful?

Give Peace A Chance

The original of this doodle. I meant to post this months ago.

 

Does anyone have an idea of what I should draw next? I drained my brain clean of color in my previous post.
And if you want a personalized drawing, send me an email. :)
I've been out-Sharpied.

Actually, I Have Yet To Run Out of a Sharpie...

I bought my first pack of Sharpies this January.
And none have died yet.
Told you they were magical.

Anyways, my dear Gabi from Crazy Socks And Ninja Bunnies has tagged me in a survey.
I have thoroughly answered every question.
Drink up:

Normally, my drawings take no more than two hours max.
This babe took all day. No joke. I was sweating by the time I was done.

Also, I bathed in awesomesauce today when Drizzled In Awesomeness awarded me with this:

I don't know what it's supposed to be for.
"We are your overlord..." De-deh-neh-neh-nehneh. De-deh-neh-neh-nehneh De-deh-neh-neh-nehneh.
Zeppelin moment.
Life is good.

...guys, this is why I don't write on my blog. 
I'm much more respectable when it's just my Sharpies talking for me.


So I understand I get to change three rules?

1. Eternal world peace. The word "war" will be erased from the dictionary. Yessss...
2. Autotune will be banned. For good.
3. Anyone who spells "Zeppelin" wrong will be forever shunned. I'm serious.

So now I have to choose who to give this to?
That's like asking me to pick my favorite Sharpie.

Aight, here goes:
A Collection Of Terrible Photos -His posts make me smile and I love his photography.
partofmewontagree - Beautiful poetry always deserves an award. Even if I can't understand half of it.
And It Came To Pass...- Because Bisky's amazing. And I'm her pet rock.

I'm exhausted. Not even going to go back and read this to see if it makes sense.

*showers world with love*
Good night.

Impulse Is My Art Teacher

Bring The Troops Home

"Whose interests do we serve by continuing this exercise in futility?" ~Ron Paul

It's easy to sit at home, scribble some Sharpie ink on paper, and scream "WOOT! I LOVE PEACE!"

Truth is, what I'm doing is really worthless, apart from the fact that it makes me feel a little better about myself. Doodling is not going to change the world.

Everyone knows that Osama Bin Laden was killed recently.

That was the original motive for the war in Afghanistan. 

There's no longer reason for this war.

People may have different views on the subject of war, but everyone has to agree that there's no need for our soldiers to be losing their lives. For innocent civilians to be dying. For families to be torn apart. 

Because that is all war does. Never solves any problems. Only brings tears and bloodshed. 

Brave soldiers that have died are brushed aside as a number; innocent lives lost are merely "collateral damage."

Enough.

There isn't much that I as a person can do.

But here are two petitions to get the troops out of Afghanistan:

MoveOn.org 

Rethink Afghanistan

Please take a few minutes to sign them. It's not about America, Afghanistan, Muslims, or terrorism. It's about stopping bloodshed. Your own soldiers are losing their lives. Take a moment to do what you can to make it stop. And spread the word. :)

And here's some Sharpiness. 

Islam is not a religion of terrorism.

It comes from the word "Salam," (سلام) meaning "peace."

Embrace The Differences. Live As One.
