Bleu Hope's Uploads

The word “backwards” in reverse would sound, I’m fairly certain, like something along the lines of ‘straw cab’ I’m presuming? Anyway, that was what randomly prompted me today to get cracking on with some art, heheheh.

Much ado about the bullshit of relationships.

Life in lockdown/business as always.

It's all about masks and disguises.

Visual jamming, nothing new here! Also, hello February.

Back to more surreal programming.

As it says!

Hoot-hoot and all that, hehehe.

Apparently, Blixa Bargeld of Einsturzende Neubaten and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds fame actually did this to his school back when he was a lad! I needed an idea for a convoluted weird-as-they-come title, and after reading that story I knew I had something, heheheh :)

Just keep embracing your inner madness folks!

New art supplies = the best excuse to get creative! Also, narwhals.

All manner of quirky looking animals on some safari in the deep sea.

Aliens seeking company and respite...

When you find a mondegreen in one of your favourite Magnetic Fields songs and it sets off your creativity... Can’t be only one mishearing things here? Stephin Merritt sure knew how to mumble back in the ‘90s, that’s for certain: https://youtu.be/UGNKhVJbDM8

Finally got round to watching Hunt For The Wilderpeople, after eons of procrastinating over doing so, and was well chuffed at how great it was! Gave me some much needed inspiration for some art as well, always a bonus. Can see what the Deadpool 2 guys saw in Julian Dennison that’s for sure, and of course Sam Neill was brilliant as well. Can’t be forgetting Taika Waititi either for directing it! Excellent job from all in my opinion :)

For things that go bump in the night (and day).

Kicking art blocks where it hurts, one step at a time.

Rainy day assemblages.

Aaaaaaaaaand, September is here. Let's make this autumn a creative one...

Whenever I’m channel surfing, I often find myself stumbling into a film midway through it’s running time, and tend to stick around if there’s elements that pique my curiosity and just catch my eye etc. My Girl 2, of all films, was one of them this time around. A line about “barbaric customs” or roundabouts prompted me to pick up my drawing kit...and here we are!

*Irn-Bru vibes a go-go here* As the wee small hours approach, I finally get round to testing the Washi tape I picked up last Sunday...
