Did you know they have sketchbooks in Hungary? And that they have pens too?!?! János Kőrös knows this dirty little secret and exploits it like a fat kid in a cake factory (there haven’t been enough 50 Cent references in the world lately). Anyway, these are just a few examples of some amazing ink he’s putting down in his moleskines. Check his page out for more.

And without a table. Check him out drawing to an audio clip about Willem De kooning. Then buy a bottle of Jack Daniels and do some drawing.

Reduced to Infant Humanity http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/2012/03/reduced-to-infant-humanity/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=reduced-to-infant-humanity http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/2012/03/reduced-to-infant-humanity/#comments Tue, 27 Mar 2012 03:09:55 +0000 https://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/?p=49

 

This is beautiful. Hands down awesome. And fitting since I just witnessed a game of peek-a-boo the other day and wondered why? Why do the miniature people enjoy this so much? And why do the bigger ones of us fall into default mode and play these games that make no logical sense? Obviously there’s something behind the game that riles up the tyke army, the logic just escapes me.

And don’t get me wrong I’ve fallen victim to playing my role in it also. Just like when I talk in a stupid voice to an animal. I hate myself a bit for doing so but nonetheless it happens.

Regardless, the important thing here is that this illustration is art in the highest form. For me at least. And if anyone knows who the artist is or what the script says, hit us up.
