I’ve mentioned The Arteest before in the old news area for Akashik. It’s time it got the review it deserves, so why not here and now? Why so. Oh well. Anyway…
The Arteest is narrated by a man just coming out of a coma. We begin with his memories and life in the dark behind the lids. Crayon imagery scatters across the panels, giving things a unique play with the words and feelings. And then he opens his eyes – to a nightmare.
But is the nightmare real?
The Arteest hasn’t been out long enough for me to know that yet. Engineered by Bill Nichols and Robin Ator, it’s a feast for those that hunger for something a little different. For example, here is a strip from it (if I can get this to work):
And if you want more, I recommend you visit them at: The Arteest!
On another note, things are slow for the updates still because, well, I’m still sick. And behind with my work as a result. I finally consented to see the base dr. Who took one look in my left ear and proceeded to explain that my eardrum no longer had air behind it and was very “concave” because of a “dysfunctional” tube, and basically now I have this image of my eardrum trying to implode on itself. Soon the rest of me will slowly suck into the singular anomaly, I’m sure.
At least the problem has been pinpointed, or at the very least a symptom of the problem. Hopefully I’ll be more up to speed soon. Hang in there with me!
The 10 Confessions support drive at Kickstarter ended the other day. It was the minimum amount I had put down, but 10 Confessions can still be produced with this. I just have to work harder at it. The fund drive over at Indiegogo is still going on. You can check that out at http://10confessions.com
And finally for those that follow Heavenly Bride, if you didn’t know it already I’m going to repeat myself: I finally settled down on the next wallpaper design. Here’s a small sketch of it. Don’t be afraid to give me feedback, thoughts, I dunno.
