Aside

It’s just vanishingly possible I’ve mentioned my appreciation for Scott Morse‘s art on the blog in the past. Given that I would be remiss if I didn’t point out that he’s doing a crazy online comic called The Shogunaut, which he’s been updating regularly. He’s up to 25 pages as I type this, and will likelly complete it soon. It’s kind of a Jack Kirby-meets-Maurice-Noble thing–perhaps not for most people, but if it’s the kind of thing you like, it’s really the kind of thing you’ll like.

More Book-y Bits

Did you get a chance to experience the cognitive dissonance that comes from VanderMeerian words read in a high-toned children’s literature type voice? Speaking of VanderMeerian weirdness, there was a nice little slice of it over at Tor.com. Sometime soon (yes, Real Soon Now) I will write another golden book post, and this one will focus on a Pat Cadigan… Read more →

The stuff I have hanging, though, are Morse’s black and white ink style work (I have some originals of some of his more recent stuff not yet framed). Here’s one of his recent colour pieces. If I could find… Read more →

And yet still I saw this when I looked out the window this morning: The one upside of this is that I got to go out… Read more →

Footwear

Normally I’m not a Converse fan. My taste in footwear these days runs to Blundstones, with summer forays into Doc Marten sandals. I am, however, quite the fan of artist and comic creator Scott Morse. I think I have everything he’s done (excepting work on corporate properties) on my shelf, not to mention several pages of original art. And now… Read more →

Latest acquisition

If you’ve been following the “Hanging Around The House” postsMan, I should really finish that…two more posts should bring us up to date., you have a pretty good sense of what kind of stuff decorates the walls around here. New stuff is coming in at a slow, but constant rate–indeed at the moment I have a small Barry Windsor-Smith print,… Read more →

Hanging Around The House 8: The Upstairs Halls

Continuing the series of posts that try to capture the various pieces of art I have hanging around the house. Remember that these posts are made up of quick snapshots–these are hardly professional images, and the upstairs images are worse than the downstairs ones since the angles I could use to take the snapshots are much more highly constrained. The… Read more →

Long Weekend Miscellany

Note for non-Canadians: Monday is one of our most important holidays. Hence “long weekend”. I don’t know how much time I will have to blog this weekend, but I can certainly present a miscellaneous set of things to keep you happy all weekend just in case. This will be a tremendously long post about various, mostly unrelated, things. So, on… Read more →
