An #illustration in memorial. Rep. Elijah Cummings 1951-2019. ⁠
“I only have a minute, ⁠
60 seconds in it, ⁠
forced upon me ⁠
I did not choose it, ⁠
but I know that ⁠
I must use it, ⁠
give account ⁠
if I abuse it, ⁠
suffer if I lose it. ⁠
Only a tiny little minute ⁠
but an eternity is in it.”⁠

A year ago yesterday Jamal Khashoggi, a reporter for the Washington Post was brutally murdered. This was an attack against us all. It was an assault upon the truth. Never forget.⁠
⁠
My #illustration for today is to remember #jamalkhashoggi.

The #illustration for today is No.2 in my #dance chapter series. What have I got my self into? The workload for October is looking immense. What doesn't kill ya makes you stronger I guess!⁠

I'm going to tackle #inktober this year again and try to finish it but I have very little time so I am keeping it simple this year. Just one hour gag cartoons, from start to finish so don't judge the quality too harshly.

My #illustration a day is first of a series of chapter illustrations for a book of dance. ⁠

The #illustration today is John Kelly. Just a #portrait from #reference. Might be good for some #editorial content. Does it capture him? I take #portrait #commissions⁠

"Money makes the world go 'round, the world go 'round!" I saw the newest #Cabaret a week or so ago. OMG! KA- pow-erful. See it if you get the chance. That #play is so relevant for today. My #illustration a day is a #poster inspired by the play. I stayed fairly #graphic with my #color to maybe attract some #theater poster #commissions. What do you think? Should it be colored in the three-tone style I usually implement? #hughdidit #imakecomics #independentcomics ⁠

Drama is an oft-overlooked quality in one's artwork. I remember a DaVinci principle I read in a textbook many years ago that (hopefully) resonates in my art. I am certainly conscious of it every time I put pen to tablet. That is his principle of Psychological Unity. All art - even a bowl of fruit - is humanistic in its foundation and therefore your art must connect on a human level. Drama is an important element of that connection. I look at every composition as a three-act play to set up the drama. There is usually a beginning, middle, and end and I try to get your eye to follow it in that order. There is much, much more to drama than that but if you're looking for more on the topic I recommend The Art of Dramatic Writing by Lajos Egri. It's about writing but it all applies to any kind of art really. Yes, it's on audible!

I'm doing an Illustration a day! But, I need your help. Please send me single WORDS that you would like me to illustrate. I'll give you a shout out in the caption if I use it. Why am I doing this now? Well, for one, it scares me frankly. I'm not the best in the world at following through on these kinds of challenges. So that's as good a reason as any to do it and change a bad habit, right? ⁠
⁠
Also, I'm at a point where I feel like I've developed a rudimentary style. What do I mean by that? Well, I have built up a set of techniques and tools that I apply consistently and that is producing work that (I think) one would recognize as similar or by the same hand. So like all good tools, I want to sharpen them now and get my process to be so second nature that I don't even think about it anymore. Theoretically, that should keep making the work better and better -- at least that's my hope. With your help and feedback I know I'll get there. ⁠
