Altrnative Comics Welcome to the The City of Gears!

HEY APATHY! ALTERNATIVE COMICS! In the distance we can see the city is made up of giant windmill-like cog wheels filled with an infinite spiral of faceless little bubble people. Endlessly filing into the monstrous metropolis the anonymous hordes fades forever into the distance representative of "the big city" and the perpetually lost souls. As we move in for a closer inspection the faceless denizens exit the architecture and begin moving down the concrete walkways. Here we realize that the Kierkegaardian crowds are not made up of an unidentifiable conglomeration, rather the streets are consumed by all the crazy and unique individuals moving through it! This 10 x 25 " pen and ink drawing was made on location, at Queen and Spadina in downtown Toronto. The drawing took about 30 street hours ( a street hour differs greatly from a studio hour as it includes set up and take down of a portable display, constant interactions/discussions with various passers by and numerous unexpected interferences such a by-law officers, rain showers, wind storms, car accidents, and short trips to the local bar to use their facilities ,not to drink) to complete and is probably my most popular representation of the urban beast to date. see more from HEY APATHY!
