fantastic article on the Alameda-Weehawken Burrito tunnel. I found it of particular interest being myself a bay area taqueria aficionado.

Pandora played me some Mia Doi Todd, and I liked it and drew her picture.
I may get time to color this some later week. For the "spring" theme on illustration friday, when flowers bloom and the human/animal hybrids are sweetly singing...
This is a digital painting of an actual vintage photograph.
Less fun than staying up all night working: staying up all night to enter, at the last minute, an illustration annual you have no hope of getting into. So I'm indulging myself with some extra feet and tattoo sketches.
And since I'm typing stuff, I've been meaning to say how much I'm loving pandora; I recommend it and must thankbasalt in her eminent coolness for introducing me. And I must in turn thank pandora for introducing me to josephine foster...
yes josephine foster i will follow...

Last week I had the opportunity to visit the new deYoung museum in San Francisco. The Oceania section's amazing, I could have stayed there drawing all day. In fact, I want to go back sometime to do just that. But then I would have missed the rest of the museum, and it was good.
I wasn't aware they had a section of nineteenth-century american painting - Robert Henri, Mary Cassatt, Cecelia Beaux, Sargeant, Thomas Eakins, Moran & Bierstadt, Winslow Homer. Along with some lesser known tonalist/luminist painters I happen to love such as Arthur Mathews. And Elmer Bischoff and Wayne Thiebaud and... anyway, I don't get out to these things enough.
As it was there was only time to do a couple sketches, with the photoshop coloring later:
This was in the Africa area. It really looks like a table with breasts and a head, though it's apparently worn on the shoulders as a sort of ritual headdress, in as much as I got from my hurried glance at the label.
And they have a giant stone head, as you can hopefully see.
One from the Oceania section. These guys rock the Froud and McKean party.
Also, I'd never heard of Edwin Dickinson before, but after seeing this painting(in real life it's huge) I am convinced that he is awesome. A bit of internet research would seem to confirm this.

A photoshop still life I did at my parents house over christmas holidays.
Quick photoshop stuff will be the rule for illustration fridays from now on. Nice theme this week though.
Maybe next round I won't wait until the last minute to do the week's illustration friday theme. But I wouldn't count on it.
*edit -took down Iraqi prison photos link since I'm pretty sure everyone's seen them by now.
