Our Short North Mural on the BBC Website!

A friend sent me and Mike a link to an article on the BBC website which used a picture of our Short North mural in Columbus. Kinda depressing subject matter- the housing crisis (and apparently they need a better editor.  They refer to the man and woman in American Gothic as a “couple”.  They’re actually father and daughter.)  Still, cool beans!  We’re international celebrities! ;D

Makes me a little sad to see the mural in its current state, though.  Unfortunately, its color has faded a bit since we originally painted it in 2002.  Worse yet, the folks who commissioned it glazed over the bottom half with an anti-graffiti coating which has degraded over time and covered it in a black haze.  Regardless, it’s amazing to know we left our mark behind us.

Burnbot Sketch

Burnbot

I haven’t shown off a robot in a while- except for the sexy lady robots (2)… they don’t count.  That’s a different series entirely.  For those of you who’ve followed me for a while, here’s a quick little sketch of one I did tonight in the old style of a guy named “Burnbot”.    Click to embiggen.
