These have all been printed by me, at home, and it's been *something* let me tell you.<br /><br />To try and simplify postage, I've bundled them all together to start with - if I don't sell the bundles as they are I'll split them later on. But this way I can tuck them all in an envelope and charge £2 P&P in the UK. Eventually I'll put 'Curse' and 'House' up on Gumroad, and they'll probably end up in Explosive Sweet Freezer Razors, too.<br /><br />The comics being sold are: TUESDAY'S SALTED CURSE; FOLD MOUNTAIN; NOT THIS HOUSE<br /><br />You can buy them here: <a href="https://buysmallpress.com/product/tuesdays-folded-house/">https://buysmallpress.com/product/tuesdays-folded-house/</a><br /><br />Here comes some more information about them all which you may find interesting, or you may not, it's totally up to you. If you want to just go and buy the comics and avoid all this, please be my guest.<br /><br /><img class="tl-email-image" data-id="4429054" height="500" src="https://gallery.tinyletterapp.com/def5ee23b87718249f6652047913e6833e1b4d19/images/1d3b9f21-ab7f-96f2-d01a-0938f9f11fae.jpg" style="max-width: 351px; width: 351px;" width="351" /><div><strong><br /></strong></div><div><strong>Tuesday's Salted Curse</strong>: During the month-long Hackney Comic & Zine Fair I decided I'd make a brand new comic and use Twitter to track the process. I started by taking a random selection of paper from the Discarded Paper Box in my office, and then started working into it - a lot of the pages were from where I tried to print out Moon Puke but instead of printing the images it printed the code that described the print job. Once that was all done and scanned I printed out a second copy and worked back over the top of that, using watercolour for the most part. That was enough, really - after the second iteration there wasn't really anywhere for me to take it.<br /><br />Then it was the writing part. The art reminded me of a fantasy landscape, and I wanted to do something similar to Mars Volta's <em>Desloused In The Comatorium</em>, telling a story about a very abstract but mapped-out place. From that point I meandered a fair amount - at first the narrative was just a description of people and places in this place, then I tried really hard to create plot and characters using two characters from a previously unrealised figurative comic, but that got tired too. I was flailing around a bit, until the Petrol Crisis happened. Remember that? Loads of people were told by the press that they shouldn't hoard petrol, so they immediately ran out to hoard as much as they possibly could - as far as I can tell, it was particularly prevalent in the South of England, around my neck of the woods. And I was angry and disappointed by the whole thing that I wrote a fantasy about witches ending the world. It's nasty - the witches are not nice people, and they don't do nice things. It's also very cathartic.<br /><br /><strong>Fold Mountain</strong>: Not too long ago I did an art show where I invited people to send me their versions of Utopia on little templates that could be turned into buildings and racked up to create a 'City Of Utopias' - here's a photo of it:</div><div><br /></div><div> <img class="tl-email-image" data-id="4429078" height="500" src="https://gallery.tinyletterapp.com/def5ee23b87718249f6652047913e6833e1b4d19/images/8d8d468c-e29a-7a53-add2-fbac5185bfd2.jpg" style="max-width: 500px; width: 500px;" width="500" /><br /><br /></div><div>To make it multi-level I made some weird paper structures, full of half-thought-through structural elements, stuck together with Pritt-Stick and tape. When the show closed and I brought all this stuff home I couldn't bring myself to throw away all this paper, and so on a whim I fed it through my paper strimmer and created a whole bunch of paper strips. And then with nothing else to think of, I cut those strips in half and folded them in half and voila I had 30-odd little covers for comics. Then I had to think of something to fill them up with.<br /><br />A few hours of folding paper later (inspired by Colossive Press' innovations) I had this idea of interlocking mountain ranges which could be folded in and out of each other. I managed to work out a way to fit 8 basic mountain ranges onto two sheets of paper and after a bit of cutting and folding fit neatly inside the covers I'd made. I whacked some paint on the covers, stuck some staples in the whole thing and wham: lots of unique little foldable mountain ranges. I mean, that sounds easy - between me making mistakes and my printer being a fuckface it was a ballache to put together.</div><div><br /><img class="tl-email-image" data-id="4429058" height="400" src="https://gallery.tinyletterapp.com/def5ee23b87718249f6652047913e6833e1b4d19/images/33337d15-5a8c-2eea-325a-fe2c29331a61.jpg" style="max-width: 566px; width: 566px;" width="566" /><br /><br /><strong>Not This House</strong>: After I'd printed Tuesday's Salted Curse, I'd used up a lot of colour print cartridges but very few black ones, and so thought I'd make a black and white comic to even it all out. I actually had the artwork already - it's a very long story, but if you've read Thunders you might notice that the page layouts are the same, although the pages are in different orders.</div><div><br /><img class="tl-email-image" data-id="4429062" height="500" src="https://gallery.tinyletterapp.com/def5ee23b87718249f6652047913e6833e1b4d19/images/9484c8cd-f272-68b9-6624-c8835939a00c.jpg" style="max-width: 351px; width: 351px;" width="351" /><br /><br /></div><div>I then decided to write, but didn't know what. But I'd recently done a visualisation excercise to help get rid of some psychological baggage that was very weird, so that went in. And then I thought about the nature of ghosts, and imagine that I was a kind of ghost now that I work from home, and I just sort of float about the house not doing much, and that got twisted further, and then I got fed up with myself and wrote a third act. Not This House is the most structured thing I've read in a long time - it's got three definite 'acts' of 4 pages each, which is interesting if that sort of thing interests you.<br /><br />The cover went through a lot of iterations - at one point I thought it would be nice to have a mostly white cover becasue it would save on ink, but I couldn't make it look nice and then spent a couple of days layering different types of paint onto a piece of cardboard, which after a bit of tweaking became the actual cover. It looks much better here than it does in real life, trust me.<br /><br />AAAAnd that's all I have the energy and attention span to talk about for the moment.<br /><br />In other news:<br /><br />Once I've sold all of these and posted them, I'll be getting <strong>Ghosts In Things</strong> ready to print! Finally!<br />I'm also working on a four page short for the Observer Comic Prize thing which probably won't win but I'm trying very hard to make something the judges will at least nod and shrug in confused admiration at. It's currently about a fishing village going to church, but their church is a cave and everyone's a baddie.<br />I did a five page comic for a Brazilian anthology called <strong>Autofagia</strong> which I think is coming out soon - it's all in Brazilian and my tired brain can't make any sense of what's happening.<br />A while ago I did two one-page comics for <strong>Tales From The Quarantine</strong> which I think is finally about to be posted.<br />OH and best of all: I was asked by German comics scholarship magazine <strong>Closure</strong> to do a five page comic for their non-narrative issue but ended up making a 12 page comic and a 10-page photo-comic about making comics. I've put my favourite page from that process comic here, it looks like nonsense but in context it's a very strong metaphor for how I work:<br /><img class="tl-email-image" data-id="4429094" height="908" src="https://gallery.tinyletterapp.com/def5ee23b87718249f6652047913e6833e1b4d19/images/d43ee6d8-bef7-8ca7-af5a-7086a091693e.jpg" style="max-width: 640px; width: 640px;" width="640" /></div><div><br /></div><div>If you've made it this far: well done, I'm proud of you.

Each 'building' will be built from a simple template.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Which is where the call for collaborators come in. For this 'city' to be monumental, it's going to need more ideas that I'm capable of by myself. So I'm making what I've put together so far available as a download - there's either a ZIP of all the assets I've made, or just the basic templates. I'm inviting you to download the template and fill it up with whatever you think would be appropriate as a Utopia - it can be very specific, or a little bit abstract, it's up to you. You can adapt the template, within reason, too. For instance my 'Jungle' one has a part that sticks up out of the top of the structure, and 'Neon Cosmic Waste' has a bit in the middle to get chopped out.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Send me a digitised version of the completed template and I'll print it out onto thin card/thick paper and stick it together, then put it in the 'City'. I'll also add it to this blog post for posterity, if you fancy it.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There's now another way that you can get involved, too - just send me a description of your idea of Utopia in 5 words or less and I'll interpret it for you. Those that have been done in that way are tagged below with "5W".</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Email any completed templates to <b>GARETH@GRTHINK.COM.</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><br /></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Here's some examples that I made:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0TqabNhHZjYYUwsUSIhp2lXk8TEskUU37rdZFN25YoogtjwO094_4ujK4Cp7DWfkFwykC1NMWBGtxtNPjTKQNTz89_X0-1GlN8wVfomCXhQUmIPE-LSK3vURTwaKmhQzxU40RKRMOuYA/s2048/1627212712778.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1455" height="261" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0TqabNhHZjYYUwsUSIhp2lXk8TEskUU37rdZFN25YoogtjwO094_4ujK4Cp7DWfkFwykC1NMWBGtxtNPjTKQNTz89_X0-1GlN8wVfomCXhQUmIPE-LSK3vURTwaKmhQzxU40RKRMOuYA/w185-h261/1627212712778.jpg" width="185" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZeR5HGm_vbMSrHhPPVP7zlbkNMu3bpsmF8rMx86FHbieY8aeIJtiKx_BUabp-p012OrshaSaj3tcJPSgIVgCEkXxX5NhDXcskR-SdHoEmkzuGq9sbR5tfr9iK2mn_Qg5F7WJ_QBfHtE4/s2048/1627212712861.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1455" height="261" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZeR5HGm_vbMSrHhPPVP7zlbkNMu3bpsmF8rMx86FHbieY8aeIJtiKx_BUabp-p012OrshaSaj3tcJPSgIVgCEkXxX5NhDXcskR-SdHoEmkzuGq9sbR5tfr9iK2mn_Qg5F7WJ_QBfHtE4/w185-h261/1627212712861.jpg" width="185" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2Ny9fM4jvc12Kb-AoTvj-du33UUeKEee4gHMfn9OWkURpP54MlDDGkyGDQw9-dz_XHGOkFT76zhB2y_nM7k5LGngxOFAiyynN-T58BtydsayZtQCQ95IkON7P5kgDgU_F2fMcs84wl5g/s2048/1627212712968.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1455" height="263" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2Ny9fM4jvc12Kb-AoTvj-du33UUeKEee4gHMfn9OWkURpP54MlDDGkyGDQw9-dz_XHGOkFT76zhB2y_nM7k5LGngxOFAiyynN-T58BtydsayZtQCQ95IkON7P5kgDgU_F2fMcs84wl5g/w187-h263/1627212712968.jpg" width="187" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Here's a couple that my daughter made:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFVTXNvGYclxY1hY9Ab8waikT5BgTzaHj46xHfuHx0b8tRBXBcLxZfQimI5m_1HQnyehqF9loalG9WIJh78IKQmi0n1ZdQzi9GI2RUPPBGPUdNQ8GM_wVmo-V73jEbpWtIIhBCo-BdZXI/s2048/1627212712412.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJVdtv-pMCF4e__S_q6_LMMJ2DCEZNX7-4UyX6OuBFz66mWTDa2Ov8YxD04hL_hDIKNUeZYv4JoHzFc8sY-FBPw23Dc_A1oofpRz7UpDOrfBQdkKWj0L5HjF6eCmvRu3YGLp_J3PGVjuk/s2048/1627212712582.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1455" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJVdtv-pMCF4e__S_q6_LMMJ2DCEZNX7-4UyX6OuBFz66mWTDa2Ov8YxD04hL_hDIKNUeZYv4JoHzFc8sY-FBPw23Dc_A1oofpRz7UpDOrfBQdkKWj0L5HjF6eCmvRu3YGLp_J3PGVjuk/s320/1627212712582.jpg" width="227" /></a><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1455" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFVTXNvGYclxY1hY9Ab8waikT5BgTzaHj46xHfuHx0b8tRBXBcLxZfQimI5m_1HQnyehqF9loalG9WIJh78IKQmi0n1ZdQzi9GI2RUPPBGPUdNQ8GM_wVmo-V73jEbpWtIIhBCo-BdZXI/s320/1627212712412.jpg" width="227" /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Here's the blank templates.

But it does need to be easy enough for me to fold and stick together.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Q: Will I get my printed 'Building' back?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">A: I don't know what I'm going to do with the installation once it's done with, but I think it's unlikely I'll be able to post the building to you.

Did the comic get made?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">A: I lost the drive with all the tidied up files on it, so the comic didn't get made. I do intend to return to that project, though.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Q: How are you?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">A: I'm well, thank you for asking, if a little tired - but then, I always am. Thank you for asking, I hope you're well also.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Q: Have you got an idea of what this thing will look like?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">A: In my head, yes.

That could be in the form of a drawing, or a piece of writing, or a photograph, or a poem, or a song, or... whatever you feel comfortable doing.</p><p>What I'm hoping to see is what the world looks like if everything's working. Too often we're expected to imagine the next dystopia, and then we get it, or a version of it, and things keep getting worse. So let's imagine our world as we'd like it to be, if only for a moment, and see if we can help edge it along the right way a bit.</p><p>Submit whatever you have - it doesn't need to be a masterpiece, it's the idea that's important right now. There'll be a couple of online events associated, details of which I'll share soon - we'll either create more ideas together, or discuss the ones we've already got.</p><p>Email me and gareth@grthink.com with what you've got.</p>grthinkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03772699331010102579noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-485343904741057681.post-30281590329911379142020-09-14T15:30:00.005-07:002020-09-20T13:30:07.343-07:00I Don't Know - I Don't Know<p>From the 17th- 23rd September 2020 I'll be in residence at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/406236637003929" target="_blank">48 Aberfeldy Street, London, E14 0NU, under the event title 'I Don't Know</a>', which is running as part of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Youngbloodinitiative">Young Blood Initiative's "Wake Up And Smell The Tear Gas" season.</a></p><p>One of the projects I'm inviting people to take part in while I'm there is "I Don't Know". It's similar to my previous open project "No New Ideas" - participants (by which I mean <i>you</i>, dear reader, if you're interested) take the starter image and do whatever you want to it, either physically or digitally. Really, the only difference is that this time instead of challenging you (or liberating you) with the idea that there are 'no new ideas' this time you're being asked about What You Don't Know. </p><p>No rules, just do whatever you want. Here's a link to a high-ish res version of the starter image: <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zu7MOGXwnloqkml4boLOOZDJjgK3wp3c/view?usp=sharing">DOWNLOAD</a> or save it from this post if you don't mind it getting a bit gnarly along the way.</p><p>Email it to me at gareth@grthink.com with any links or details that you want to share with the image, and I'll stick them up here.

Gas" asks its participants to consider their role as artists, and whether
activism and art exist successfully in the same space. I'll fess up: I've found
this question really challenging, because I use art to deal with things like
The Language Of Comics, Do I Like Ghosts and Let's See What Happens When I Keep
Drawing Over And Over The Same place, and not 'WTAF is happening right now, and
how do I help?'</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Aberfeldy Street, London, E14 0NU</a> from the 17th - 23rd September,
inviting people (where appropriate, following whatever the current COVID-19
guidance is) to come in and make some art, talk about their opinions, and see
what happens. Right now there are three main projects that I’m inviting people
to get involved in:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="background: white; color: #65676b; font-size: 10pt;">1) “I Don’t Know” – This will be open for the entire week. It’s
very much like my previous project <a href="http://garethahopkins.blogspot.com/2020/06/no-new-ideas-collaborative-project.html">“No
New Ideas”</a> but with a new starter image, and instead of challenging people
directly with the argument that there are no new ideas, instead this time the
question is whether people know what they’re doing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="background: white; color: #65676b; font-size: 10pt;">2) EDEN – It feels to me like everyone’s constantly imagining
the next dystopia – The Handmaid’s Tale, 1984, Years And Years, to name the
first three that come to mind – whilst also trying to come up with solutions to
problems that are presented singly – Government lockdown, Brexit, Black Lives
Matter. But we don’t think what the world might look like when it’s working,
what would utopia look like? I don’t know, so I’m inviting people to draw or
make that picture, and share it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="background: white; color: #65676b; font-size: 10pt;">3) The Pledge – There’s a meme that I’ve seen on Facebook, a
copy&paste declaration of actions that participants are signing up to. They’re
pledges for critical thinking, for anti-government control, for faith in
science, but they’re also the opposite of those things. I’ll be inviting participants
to discuss the pledges, see where they might be correct or incorrect, and work
through what we do and don’t know.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span face=""Arial",sans-serif" style="background: white; color: #65676b; font-size: 10pt;">That’s generally it, for the moment. I’ll be sharing the
details for how to join in online and offline in the very near future. For the time
being, I hope you’ll join in somehow, and I’ll see you in a bit.</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Take the page above, which is from the second section of my graphic novel 'Petrichor'. </div><div>Here's the link to the full version: <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eHFm75TAqDUA5RN_i4l3HM0kXqoVpJbm/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">NO NEW IDEAS</a> </div><div>For those that are working digitally, and might find the original PSD useful, here is : <a href="https://drive.google.com/open?id=1e1qcfgnHZdib3ng2ERV9XWvgNgmD5gsL" target="_blank">NO NEW IDEAS PSD</a><br />
2. Do whatever you want to it. Print it out and cut it up, or draw over the top of it, or use it as a texture in a computer game, whatever.<br />
3. The only rule is: Be Brave.<br />
4. Send it back to me at gareth@grthink.com with any social media details that you'd want shared.<br />
5. I'll put a copy here on the blog with your name and your social media details.<br />
6. That's it.<br />
<br />
If we get enough of them, I'll bundle them all up into a PDF, and we'll decide what to do with it then. It'd be nice if it could be used to generate some money for a good cause, but we'll put those ambitions behind having fun for the time being.<br />
<br />
If you're able to, please send the finished file back to me using the following details. If you don't know how to prep an image to these specifications, that's absolutely not a problem, just send me what you've got.<br />
<br />
Dimensions: 21.6 x 30.3cm (2551x3579 pixels)<br />
DPI: 300dpi<br />
Colour: RGB - if you can send CMYK in case we decide to print, that's helpful, but not the end of the world.<br />

Here's a list of issues of Alpha Flight. If there's a name next to it, somebody's agreed to read and talk about that issue on my podcast Alpha Pod Flight. If there's a link next to it, we've recorded and that's a link to listen to the episode on Soundcloud. If there isn't a name or link it's FREE! Either email me at <a href="mailto:gareth@grthink.com">gareth@grthink.com</a> to let me know which one you'd like to do, or DM me at Twitter where I'm <a href="http://www.twitter.com/grthink" target="_blank">@grthink</a><br />
<br />
(I've not listed all 130 issues of Vol 1, or any of Vol 2, that'd be madness. I've listed the Byrne run and some notable issues -- if there's an issue you'd like to talk about that's not on the list, let me know you want to do it and we'll get it added) (This means it's harder to talk about Bill Mantlo's run, which has a lot to talk about, but those issues aren't as readily available as the Byrne - if you've got any of the Mantlo run, and I've got an issue I can talk to, then please get in contact)<br />

We shared details and not long after that John sent me through some ideas of comics he was working on, one of which was 'The Bug', which was inspired by a nightmare he'd had. I drew it up, and we submitted for consideration for <a href="http://dirtyrottencomics.co.uk/" target="_blank">Dirty Rotten Comics</a>' latest issue.<br />
<br />
We didn't get in, but that's OK. I was really happy with how it turned out, as was John (he hasn't told me otherwise...?) so I'm sharing it here. I enjoyed working on it, too, although because for one reason and another it got a bit rushed toward the end. What I'm really glad works is the transition from 'light and ordered' at the start through to 'dark and chaotic' at the end with a bit of transition in between.<br />

The one's that have gone are marked up as such.</b><br />
<br />
Bit of an image dump, but that's just part of #inktober, I guess.<br />
<br />
For those not familiar with #inktober, the idea is that every day during October participants do an ink drawing -- a sketch, or something more complicated, it doesn't matter. Just something. I did quite well, considering - as well as the normal inktober stuff I also did a page of Crosby & Syd for the ThoughtBubble art competition, as well as doing a page for Cops Vs Sharkwolves, my sketches for which I've balled up into inkotber.<br />
<br />
In all, I managed 28 images, most of which were done on postcards which I'll send out to people if they want them. (If you want one, let me know at gareth@grthink.com and I'll sort you out).<br />
<br />
There's some truly terrible nonsense in there. I'm almost ashamed to put that Magneto in there, but in the spirit of 'you've got to fail to succeed' I left him in anyway. But for the most part, it's worked out OK, I reckon.<br />

<br /></div>
Hello there!<br />
<br />
For the next 3 weeks, up to the 12th November, I'm offering unique, by-request Intercorstal pages to anyone who'd like to commission one, with prices varying only by the size requested.<br />
<br />
The way the process works is that you, the Commissioner, email me with details of the comic page you'd like Intercorstal'led (and wherever possible a photo or scan for reference) and the size you'd like it worked up at, and I'll take it through the Intercorstal process (which is covered broadly <a href="http://intercorstal.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/what-i-mean-by-steal-when-i-say-ive.html" target="_blank">here</a>). Once it's done, I'll post it to you along with whatever roughs/sketches/notes I've made along the way.<br />
<br />
Prices are as follows, and are regardless of the size of the original page you wanted me to work from:<br />
Postcard (standard, thick white paper): £8<br />
A5 (Bristol Board): £15<br />
A4 (Bristol Board): £25<br />
A3 (Bristol Board): £50<br />
P/P will be added on too, which'll be around £3 for 1st Class Postage.<br />
<br />
Payments will be by PayPal, as a preference.<br />
<br />
What you'll get:<br />
The worked-up Intercorstal page.<br />
A print-out of whatever reference I've been sent.<br />
Notes used during the process - can't guarantee how much this'll include, unfortunately.<br />
Digital copies of the page: 300dpi and 72dpi JPEG as standard, but I can provide others if required.#<br />
<br />
Theses prices are at a pretty low introductory rate -- certainly a lot less than page-rate for a normal comic page, and will be going up substantially next year, so if you're interested, now's the time to go for it.<br />
<br />
To order yours, or if you have any questions, email me at gareth@grthink.com.<br />

Regular readers will be aware that recently I travelled out to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bremen" target="_blank">Bremen</a> (which is in Germany) to hang and present <a href="http://intercorstal.com/after-smith-gallery/" target="_blank">'After Smith'</a>, a set of Intercorstal pages all based on comics written by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Smith_(comics)" target="_blank">John Smith</a> for <a href="http://www.2000adonline.com/" target="_blank">2000AD</a>. It's just over a week since opening night, and with that in mind I wanted to relate, like some kind of society diarist, the ins-and-outs of everything that happened.<br />
<br />
The reality is, I doubt you'll want to sit through 3,000 words of me saying how much fun I had, so I'll stick to bulletpoints, and if you get bored halfway through you can skip to the next one! It's the internet age, and I live by TLDR, and I'd understand if you do too.<br />

<li>Bremen is LOVELY. I mean, it could just because I was seeing it through the filter of Gregor (the owner/curator of Projektraum 404) and his group of friends. But I had a great time. A lot of it was spent wondering the streets with my fellow exhibitor Florian, who I embarrased a fair amount by taking pictures of geographical and social features. There're bikes everywhere, and once I'd learned that I was standing on their bit of the pavement all the cyclists stopped being rude to me. Seriously, if you have a free weekend, I'd suggest spending it in Bremen. It's aces. I hope to go back soonish.</li>
<li>Opening night on the 11th was really fun. (I almost said it 'was a blast' but I don't really feel comfortable with that yet, I just don't think I'm the sort of person who 'has a blast' anywhere). I reckon about 40-50 people turned up. I'd prepared a book of the original 2000AD pages I'd worked from for After Smith and was forever coercing people into using it to compare my pages against. I also scared a few non-English speakers with over-excited 'youawrights' ("You all right?" but condensed) , which I use as a form of greeting but clearly sounded like nonsense to German ears.<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<li>Florian and I were scheduled to give an artist talk on the 13th, which I think we were both quietly dreading. After kind of sorting out a projector, and making sure our selected images looked OK-ish, we quietly waited for everyone who'd said they'd come to materialise... 2 people did. So, in one respect, it was an abject failure. In another though, I had a great time ('having a great time' was pretty much par for the course, mind you). I got to wang on about comics to my heart's desire, and the food served by <a href="http://www.kulturkueche.org/" target="_blank">Kulturkueche</a> was mindblowing. </li>
<li>I've mentioned Florian - he's a French artist, who lives in Brussels. He's currently working on a 16-chapter comic, which is loosely about time travel, and includes a man becoming a new dimension when his time machine goes wrong. It's FANTASTIC (and also in French) and you should at least <a href="http://flo.huet.free.fr/" target="_blank">do yourself a favour by going to his website.</a> For Abstrakte Comics 2, he'd also made a gigantic 'empty' comic which enriched everyone's lives.<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<li>The gallery, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/projekraum404" target="_blank">Projektraum 404</a> was in many ways my home for the weekend. It's based on the first floor of a house owned by a lovely couple called Jan and Julia and run by Gregor Straube, who I've mentioned. It's ambitious, fearless and also has a jam-packed calendar thanks to Gregor's work. I can't thank everyone involved enough for inviting me out and putting me up, and also putting up with me.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</li>
<li>On the subject of 'putting up with me'. If there's one thing I've learned about myself from my trip is that if I'm allowed to talk unchecked, I'll usually end up eulogising about comics. Gregor and Florian both learned the magic phrase 'You're doing that thing again' but not everyone who turned up on opening night had that luxury, and I wanged on about 2000AD and John Smith to an extent that might be surprising... except from someone who'd just spent three months putting together an exhibition based on how much I love 2000AD and John Smith.</li>
<li>I also put up 24 pages from <a href="http://intercorstal.com/the-intercorstal-2/" target="_blank">Intercorstal 2</a> which went across really well. People were able to take each page on its own merits, and people looking at them didn't constantly have me directing them to 'the book of originals'. I'm increasingly excited about '<a href="http://intercorstal.com/683-2/" target="_blank">683</a>', which is the natural step-up from Intercorstal 2, and is so far more cohesive.<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

With 'After Smith' <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1648818192025847/" target="_blank">opening to the public in a couple of days time</a> it seemed like a good time to give the project its own place, with room for it to grow, as well as to properly collect everything I've done so far.<br />
<br />
You should have a look, it's alright.<br />
<br />
Below are the two 'After Smith' comparison pages I've been sending out.<br />
<br />
I'll tell you what, quietly: I'm really, really happy with how 'After Smith' has come out.<br />

<br />
As announced* in my <a href="http://garethahopkins.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/intercorstal-after-smith.html" target="_blank">previous blog post</a>, last month, I'm working on 10 pages for an exhibition which uses The Intercorstal to reinterpret** comics originally written by <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Smith_(comics)" target="_blank">John Smith</a> for <a href="http://www.2000adonline.com/" target="_blank">2000AD</a>. Here's a quick update on what I've been up to. I've broken it down into steps to make it as easy for me as possible -- it's not necessarily chronological.<br />
<br />
1. Spent a disproportionate amount of time trying to find the exact right shade of purple marker to use. Eventually I settled on '<a href="https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=mulberry+letraset&espv=2&biw=1920&bih=1115&tbm=isch&imgil=RKGm0bs45zq_cM%253A%253B82FrTsAQ6gmzNM%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fwww.msaltmarsh.com%25252F1600%25252FMulberry&source=iu&pf=m&fir=RKGm0bs45zq_cM%253A%252C82FrTsAQ6gmzNM%252C_&dpr=1&usg=__BOPX9a6JetnzoHwHIpSFEgpg8VU%3D&ved=0CFAQyjdqFQoTCMvl76vP6cYCFScX2wodbqUHog&ei=ad2sVYuNIqeu7Abuyp6QCg#imgrc=RKGm0bs45zq_cM%3A&usg=__BOPX9a6JetnzoHwHIpSFEgpg8VU%3D" target="_blank">Mulberry</a>'.<br />
<br />
2. Read and re-read an incredible number of comics to find the exact right pages to steal. The 'Final 10' has changed innumerable times. The last one's still not 100%. There's no set criteria for what makes a page 'right' but I wanted to cover as many artists as possible, make sure each page would work as well when reworked as an Intercorstal one, had made a palpable impact to me at some point in my life, and to look good on its own merits. The final 10 all meet at least 2 out of the 3 final criteria.<br />
<br />
3. Measure each page, and calculate how much bigger it needs to be to fit an A3 page. There are probably computer programs that could that for me, or settings in programs I already use, but I did it all with a ruler, a calculator and a notebook. I suppose it felt more 'honest' to do it that way, as a part of me is still worried that 'stealing' pages for The Intercorstal is still somehow inherently dishonest. (<a href="http://intercorstal.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/what-i-mean-by-steal-when-i-say-ive.html" target="_blank">here's a blog I did a while ago explaining why I 'steal' pages at all</a>)<br />

4. Asked Tom Whitely, whose blog '<a href="https://suggestedformaturereaders.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Suggested For Mature Readers</a>' is at least partially responsible for the Intercorstal taking this route***, to write some notes on who John Smith is. He's exceptionally good at writing about comics.<br />
<br />
5. I've used my calculations and measurements to transfer the layouts of 9 out of the 10 pages to A3. I've even done the black and Mulberry areas. This is probably the most important part of the project, as it's the actual work, but I've not got very much to say about them yet. Here's 8 of them laid out on my living room carpet:<br />

6. Made a very rash decision to present Tom's writing using a layout stolen from the illustrated text story 'Touched By The Hand Of Brendan', which was illustrated by Mark Buckingham,l appearing in the 2000AD Sci-Fi Special 1991****. I desperately wanted to include Tyranny Rex in 'After Smith' somewhere, but I couldn't find anything that really met the criteria from point 2 (above) quite as well as TBTHOB, and it also makes a handy way to present whatever Tom comes up with. This decision has of course increased my workload somewhat. Here's the cover drawn up, without any text yet, next to the original cover:<br />

Aaaaand that's it for the moment. All I have to do now is the actual really hard work of turning the blocked-out pages into finished work, with all of the squiggly lines, dots, circles and stripes that entails.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
*'announced' seems like a very grand word to use. Being naturally predisposed to humility and/or humble-bragging I'm still not really comfortable with it. But it's the correct word to use, I think, and can't think of a better one.<br />
**'reinterpret' doesn't feel like it covers the ground I need or want it to. But it's the correct word to use, I think, and can't think of a better one.<br />
***Without it, I'd never have read 'Still Life', which means I'd never have done <a href="http://garethahopkins.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/intercorstal-vs-still-life.html" target="_blank">this</a>.<br />

<h2 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">"The Intercorstal: After Smith" is a series of artworks reinterpreting comic pages written by John Smith. It will be exhibited at Projectroom 404 in Bremen from 11th September - 4th October 2015.</span></h2>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">A few months ago I was approached by Gregor Straub of Projectroom 404 in Bremen to participate in a series of exhibitions running this year that cover the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_comics" target="_blank">Abstract Comics</a> movement. Obviously, I agreed, and then set about worrying about what I'd exhibit.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">With time to worry, I continued work on The Intercorstal 2, which naturally ended and turned into <a href="http://intercorstal.blogspot.co.uk/2015/05/goodbye-intercorstal-2-hello-683.html" target="_blank">The Intercorstal 683</a> (which I'm still being a little coy about sharing). The last page of The Intercorstal 2 was a <a href="http://intercorstal.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/intercorstal-2-page-34.html" target="_blank">reinterpretation of a page from Revere</a>, which ran in 2000AD in the 90s, and is one of my favourite comics of all time. On posting it, Tom Whiteley, who blogs at the superlative <a href="https://suggestedformaturereaders.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Suggested For Mature Readers</a>, mentioned on Twitter how good it would be to reinterpret Revere in its entirety. I think he was only half-joking.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">That thought merged over time with my thoughts of continuing the <a href="http://garethahopkins.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/after-wainwright-for-lakes-comic-art.html" target="_blank">After Wainwright series that I started for the Lakes Comic Art Festival</a> and then coalesced into paying tribute to one of the writers that has the most effect on my life - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Smith_%28comics%29" target="_blank">John Smith</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It's impossible to quantify the effect Smith's writing has had on me, both as an artist and person. I very much doubt The Intercorstal would have existed had it not been for his influence, although I hadn't actually realised when I started it. I joked recently that my entire 'swirly line style' is a subconcious attempt to recreate Winwood's hair as it appeared in Killing Time, which is probably more true than I'd like to admit.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">So, 'After Smith'. I've selected 10 pages from his work for <a href="http://www.2000adonline.com/" target="_blank">2000AD</a> based solely on how much I liked it and how much the series it appeared in had an effect on me. The selection also covers a number of my favourite artists, including Chris Weston, Sean Phillips, Edmund Bagwell, and Simon Harrison.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">As prep, and so that I can be sure the whole idea's not going to fall apart, I've completed two half-size pages which I've included here, alongside the original pages I've worked from.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">As the project continues, I'll be adding WIP images to Twitter (where I'm <a href="https://twitter.com/grthink" target="_blank">@grthink</a>) and hopefully adding updates here where I'll try and go into more detail about why I've chosen particular pages/series and why I like them so much.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: small;">If you're around in Bremen during September, I hope you'll take a look.</span></div>

These are a series of images I did on request for a magazine that seems to have disappeared before going to print. I'd initially been asked to do 8 pages of illustrations, said I could do four, and then a pretty full-on case tonsillitis meant that only three got done.<br />
<br />
From what I understand the magazine was going to be themed on subcultures of London's East End, and I was given 'chavs' almost definitely because of some illustrations I did for <a href="http://www.ameliasmagazine.com/earth/book-review-chavs-the-demonization-of-the-working-class/2011/09/01/" target="_blank">Amelia's Magazine a few years ago. </a>I felt pretty uneasy, especially when looking online for reference, since so much of it is vicious, nasty and horrifically classist. So I tried to make my illustrations monstrous, a reflection of how 'chavs' are viewed, as well as trying to build some sympathy in too -- whether that was successful or not, I don't know.<br />
<br />
Earlier sketches and drafts replaced the figure's heads with ant heads, or abstracted tribal masks, but in the end I went with what I know, which worked in my favour. Although, with more time to work on it, who knows what might have been.<br />

'After Wainwright', and my involvement generally with the Lakes International Comic Art Festival, has been overwhelmingly positive so far. I'm really proud of what I achieved together with Jonathan and the folks at <a href="http://www.petriedesignltd.co.uk/" target="_blank">Petrie Design</a>. I haven't really got words past that...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In other news, I've potentially got really exciting news about exhibiting in 2015 -- whether that's more Wainwright or something entirely different isn't clear yet, but... well, keep your eyes peeled.</div>

Update 22/11/2014: Just a quick note on top of what's gone before (which is below) -- a competition was run on the Window Trai on a bunch of categories, and I was extremely humbled to win 'Best Professional Artist'. I'm still a little blown away by that, as well as all the great feedback I've had on these pages. I'm in the process of arranging prints right now.<br />
<br />
Also, the pages are STILL on display, as part of <a href="http://www.mountainfest.co.uk/" target="_blank">Kendal Mountain Festival</a>, at least until tomorrow (the 23rd November). So, yeah... Go Team G!<br />
........................<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've been extremely fortunate in securing a spot on the Window Trail associated with this year's <a href="http://www.comicartfestival.com/" target="_blank">Lakes International Comic Art Festival</a>, in Kendal. The festival itself runs from 17-19th October but the trail starts on the 3rd. My work's on display in the window of <a href="http://www.petriedesignltd.co.uk/" target="_blank">Petrie Design</a>. (as pictured above)</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The idea of doing reinterpretations of the work of A Wainwright came from Jonathan at Petrie Designs during our introductory emails. I'll admit to not being very familiar with Wainwright until that point, but a quick search on the internet made it clear what a great idea it would be.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For any others reading this who're unfamiliar with Wainwright, he was a fell walker who took it upon himself to record the Lakeland fells in the 7-volume Pictorial Guide To The Lakeland fells. The guides are an incredible achievement -- the entire collection was done by hand in his notebooks and reproduced directly from them. I'd recommend visiting the <a href="http://www.wainwright.org.uk/" target="_blank">Wainwright society's website</a> for further information, as they've got it down far better than I'll be able to.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The pages I've presented for the Trail are re-interpretations of three pages from The Pictorial Guides (Bowfell 16, Blencartha 26 and Grasmoor 16). The pages themselves are laid out very much like pages from a comicbook, although I'm not sure Wainwright had that in mind when he did them. Each of his pages represented different facets and views of the fell he was describing, exquisitely rendered in ink. I've approached them as I've done with comic pages I've reinterpreted for <a href="http://intercorstal.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">The Intercorstal</a>, as well as using lessons learned from working on the <a href="http://garethahopkins.blogspot.co.uk/2014/05/secret-7-wining-entry.html" target="_blank">mummy I did for Secret 7</a> and the <a href="http://garethahopkins.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/2014-birds-in-card-art-giveaway.html" target="_blank">birds I did as giveaways recently</a>, where you take the contour and movement of a shape and redefine it, and twisting it at the same time. </div>

Due to a bit of a mix-up, I ended up with TWO packs, so 14 in all. And in an effort to share the love about a bit, I decided to draw inside them and send them on to anyone who sent me an email with a postal address. Despite me constantly miscalculating how many cards I had versus how many requests I'd got, I was able to get them all out without a hitch.<br />
<br />
I went with a 'birds' them because of the success I'd enjoyed with the illustration I'd done of <a href="http://grthink.deviantart.com/art/Ochrebeak-468704801" target="_blank">Ochrebeak</a> for the <a href="http://www.savethreetrees.org/" target="_blank">Save Three Trees campaign</a>. I was working much faster and looser on these, but I'm happy with them in general. Also accompanying each bird was a pretty broad, unsophisticated personal message, the idea being that you could happily lose that, cut the card down the middle and display both Lizzie's original design and the bird at the same time.<br />
<br />
Here they all are, in varying qualities of photograph (I didn't give myself time to scan them). They're presented here in no particular order.<br />

Last night I went back to the <a href="http://www.houseofillustration.org.uk/" target="_blank">House Of Illustration</a> down by Kings Cross for the second of <a href="http://offlife.co.uk/" target="_blank">OffLife's</a> Quickdraw Live events. I think the first one was last March... I could look it up but am preeeetty lazy. The event was a continuation of the Quickdraw that Offlife runs every Thursday night over Twitter where they give a topic and people at home come up with an image for that topic which they share back with the hashtag #quickdraw -- the difference being that on this occasion a bunch of people were in a room together, all working furiously away.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The one drawback was that where the lighting was dimmed for a cozier atmosphere, taking photos of pictures was difficult. And adding insult to injury, the Twitter app on my phone cropped my photos in weird ways. So here are my responses to the themes (paraphrased below...again, I could look them up but...). There's photos of the event all over Twitter -- got to <a href="https://twitter.com/OFFLIFE_comic" target="_blank">Offlife's Twitter account</a> for a good selection.</div>

I've been a fan of <a href="http://offlife.co.uk/" target="_blank">OFFLIFE</a> for a while now, and have toyed with the idea of submitting something Intercorstal-ish for the past few open submission periods, although have usually backed down, pretty much convinced that I didn't stand a chance of getting in, down to the fact that The Intercorstal is like nothing they've run with before.<br />
<br />
For their 10th issue I just went for it, though. I produced a brand new comic, which rips off its panel layout from a Ditko Amazing Spider-man page (which I have been reliably informed by Andrei Molotiu (<a href="http://www.indiana.edu/~arthist/faculty/molotiu.shtml" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://blotcomics.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">here</a>) that it's his best ever page).<br />

Knowing all along that the comic would be a longshot as it was, I decided that for the first time an Intercorstal page should have some text (I'd tried on previous pages to include text -- stuff about flapping listless and beacons dying and teeth teeth teetch, that sort of thing, but it never really worked). As Offlife is loosley based around subversions of real-life, I went with autobiog-comic style moaning, and chose the Internet as my target. I moan about the internet a lot, so it wasn't hard.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My attempts at lettering were WOEFUL and I said so on Twitter, at which point the extraordinary <a href="http://www.jimcampbell-lettering.co.uk/" target="_blank">Jim Campbell</a> offered to take a look and give me some advice, which I was bowled over by -- not least when he returned a completely lettered page, which he did, in his words, "<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">in as close an approximation of Tom Frame's old school 2000AD lettering as I could manage." </span>iceI'll be honest, I was amazed by how good it looked -- it had turned a page of swirly swirls into an 80s cosmic space battle. Even now I'm confused by how good it looks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But long story short -- it didn't make it in. As you'll know if you've followed a link from Twitter or somewhere, because I'll have said so. But I knew it was a long shot, and I'm really looknig forward to reading the comics that did make the cut. And of course looknig forward to the next QuickDraw Live on the 18th, where I'll not have anywhere near enough time to do anything even remotely Intercorstal.</div>

As in, free art by me. And Clay Disarray.A little while ago I was lucky enough to win a giveaway by the exemplary <a href="https://twitter.com/ClayDisarray" target="_blank">Lizzie Campbell</a> (aka Clay Disarray) who sent me some very, very lovely greetings cards. Because of a balls-up with postage, I actually got <i>two</i> lots, and so now have a fair few of Lizzie's greetings cards.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And I thought it would be nice to share the love a little bit. So what I'm doing is this: email me at <b>gareth@grthink.com</b> if you'd like a free greetings card by Lizzie which contains an original likely-to-never-be-reproduced drawing of something (dunno what yet) by me. You'll need to include a postal address, obviously.<br />
<br />
You should know what my drawings look like -- if not, scroll up and down here for a little while or go somewhere like my <a href="http://grthink.deviantart.com/" target="_blank">Deviantart pages</a>.<br />
<br />
Um, that's it.<br />

This past weekend I was asked my <a href="https://twitter.com/jordianderson" target="_blank">Jordanna</a> from <a href="http://www.thepopupbarbershop.com/" target="_blank">The Pop Up Barber Shop</a> to paint their web address onto one of the walls of the pop-up barber shop that they run in the VIP area of V Festival.<div>

Doing this type of thing is entirely out of my comfort zone, being more at home with my face pressed up against a piece of paper and scratching away with ink, but I'm really proud of how it looked when I'd finished. It started off a bit shaky, to be honest, but once I'd realised I could just hold the paintbrush like a pen I felt much more comfortable. Here's some photos...</div>
