Purchase Drawing

About a week or so ago I bought Kate Bingaman-Burt's book Obsessive Consumption: What Did You Buy Today, in which she includes daily drawings of purchases. I had been meaning to both get the book and start drawing regular, if not daily, purchases since I read about her a year or two ago in ReadyMade magazine. It seemed a good way to get drawings out, especially if I was stuck in the "I don't know what to draw" doldrums. So here's the first of (hopefully) many of these drawings. Still trying to simplify lines, couldn't resist the temptation to retrace lines in the name of "line weight," though.

This month's issue of Juztapoz magazine was curated by Pushead, he of countless Metallica skull graphics, featuring, among others, Aaron Horkey (amazingly intricate ink) and Dan Seagrave (practically every classic death metal album cover). Horns, pentagram, etc. were induced by the giddy metalness of it all.
