Whenever I look at other artists' collaborations, I wonder how they did it and who did what, so I thought it would be neat to share how we worked on it. One of the cool things is that the title morphed along with the design. <strong>Fig 1. "Books N' Such"</strong> - I started us off with some artistic nonsense. ------------------------------------------------ <strong>Fig.2 - "Crooks N' Such" </strong>- Edgar added some of his nonsense ------------------------------------------------ <strong>Fig.3 - "Crooks In Touch" </strong>- My turn. ------------------------------------------------ <strong>Fig.4 - "Crook Toucher" </strong>- Edgar's turn (I love his title). ------------------------------------------------ <strong>Fig.5 - "Crooked Touch" </strong>- My turn. ------------------------------------------------ <strong>Fig.6 - "Crooked Couch" </strong>- Edgar finishes it up. ------------------------------------------------ And Voila. It is done (I think it came out neat): ------------------------------------------------<div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=rHyo63KMbxc:XVDx2T_0vtI:yIl2AUoC8zA"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=rHyo63KMbxc:XVDx2T_0vtI:7Q72WNTAKBA"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=rHyo63KMbxc:XVDx2T_0vtI:V_sGLiPBpWU"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=rHyo63KMbxc:XVDx2T_0vtI:qj6IDK7rITs"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=rHyo63KMbxc:XVDx2T_0vtI:gIN9vFwOqvQ"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=rHyo63KMbxc:XVDx2T_0vtI:-BTjWOF_DHI"></img></a> </div> </article> <article> <h1>Book Recommendations?</h1> <p>Boots — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 16:27:03 +0000</p> So, I'm looking for a new book to read and I'm open to suggestions. I just finished <strong>The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo</strong> series (which was pretty good), and now I'm stumped. Anyone want to be helpful and give me some good book recommendations? <span style="color: #003366;">Some of my favorites:</span> <strong>His Dark Materials A Prayer for Owen Meaney The Dark Tower Series Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time Catcher in the Rye Hitchhiker's Guide The Ender's Game Series Cat's Cradle Never Let Me Go Life of Pi</strong> And the funny writers like <strong>Chuck Klosterman</strong> and <strong>David Sedaris</strong> (but not Dave Eggers because his pretentious self-involvement gets on my nerves after awhile) <span style="color: #003366;">Some terrible books (in my opinion):</span> <strong>The Road <em>On</em> the Road LOTR Remains of the Day</strong> Most <strong>Classics</strong> that kids are forced to read (with a few exceptions) Every <strong>British Period Novel</strong> that I've ever tried to read. Also, there was a book that I read once that I know I really enjoyed, but I barely remember it. All I know is that I think it was by an Asian author. A girl was the main character. It was mysterious with possible weird time travel involved. And the end takes place at a cabin (I think? possibly by the ocean?) and there's a painting in the cabin that spurs some sort of memory or realization. ...if this sounds familiar to anyone let me know. I'd really like to figure out what it was. <div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=3JWz0mHBspk:UxXzQZI8h8o:yIl2AUoC8zA"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=3JWz0mHBspk:UxXzQZI8h8o:7Q72WNTAKBA"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=3JWz0mHBspk:UxXzQZI8h8o:V_sGLiPBpWU"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=3JWz0mHBspk:UxXzQZI8h8o:qj6IDK7rITs"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=3JWz0mHBspk:UxXzQZI8h8o:gIN9vFwOqvQ"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/bootsdraws/news?a=3JWz0mHBspk:UxXzQZI8h8o:-BTjWOF_DHI"></img></a> </div> </article> <article> <h1>My Red Bubble Shirts</h1> <p>Boots — Sat, 27 Nov 2010 18:58:37 +0000</p> I also added a bunch of new designs to <a href="http://www.redbubble.com/people/bootsboots" target="_blank">My Redbubble Store</a>.
