Another logo design I did this morning. Was watching a video about Dan Clowes and while I was drawing this, which to me felt excessively precise and detailed, I was like "Holy shit, this guy is INSANELY anal about his work." Every single stroke carefully planned. Who the hell cuts rubylith sheets anymore? Very cool.

I'm lucky to formulate the idea before I'm inking it.

Anyway, Hymla is a chainmail chick character of mine. Big, missing a tooth, badass.

For the prompt “simian” I made a new edition to my ongoing series of animals with fabulous collective nouns. It’s A Conspiracy of Lemurs. These ring-tailed lemurs definitely appear to be up to something. Caught in the act of scheming. The word “lemurs” mimics their tails, of course!

The ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) is a wet-nosed primate, endemic to Madagascar. 🧵1/n

Francis Scott Key School, a lovely art deco building we stumbled on last weekend in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset district. Designed by Douglas Dacre Stone, Edward A. Eames, William Mooser and built with PWA funds in 1938 (https://livingnewdeal.org/projects/francis-scott-key-elementary-school-san-francisco-ca/). https://www.flickr.com/search/?sort=date-taken-desc&safe_search=1&tags=francisscottkeyschool&user_id=23806189%40N00&view_all=1

A building facade in art deco style with a “FRANCIS SCOTT KEY SCHOOL” sign in thick-thin Broadway style lettering above the entrance. A woman in a red dress stands in front looking up at the building.

If your initials are T.W., and you're into Art Nouveau graphics, today is your lucky day! I just stumbled across this monogram from "The Works of GJ Whyte-Melville", pub. 1898, via the British Library.

BOND. Not James Bond; BOND International Casino on Broadway, c. 1981. Site of The Kitchen's 10th Anniversary K10 festival, and other nefarious activities unknown.

A dark street scene. In the foreground, two males confer, pure silhouettes. Behind them, the rain-soaked street is illuminated by the sign from BOND, and marquees beyond, too distant and bleached to be read.
The BOND sign on the right, is small, and seen in broader context. The rainy street in the foreground is empty, but it is about to be crowded with a street full of cars, whose headlights blare from the left side of the frame.
