it's not what i was thinking.

So yeah, I never finished this one. But I still love it like this, it is kind of fitting. So yeah, this one is about a girl. Shocking, I know. Anyways, I thought we were going to fall for each other and we didn't. Neither of us did, but we are still great friends.
Too Much Info?
Anyways, the song is "Someday" by the wonderful Club 8.
Everything I have never said

This drawing is very Explodingdawgish. I love Explodingdog.com. I am not going to lie about that. My Mom really liked this drawing a lot.
trembling blue stars: Everything I have Never Said
You may know this drawing becasuse it became the cover of the Colin Clary album "100 Decembers."
hands down that was the best part of my week.

So this was the first drawing I ever colored in Photoshop. I was inspired by ExplodingDog.com. This drawing was done at some point in 2001. If you look closely there is a little light house in the background. That light house is where my sister got married.
And the Quote is from the Secrets song "The Lonelist Duet." Called the 'Lonelist Duet' because the Female Vocalist left the band shortly after the recording of the song so Isaac had to sing it alone on stage. I am not going to lie, the Secrets were super Rad. More about them here.
Calling Occupants of Interplantary Craft
In 2001 I fell in love with the "Langley Schools Music Project" I and I am pretty sure they fell in love with me. Okay maybe not but a boy can dream can't he?So I split Coffee on my Sketch book, and I cried. I spent a long time fixing this coffee damaged drawing.
Song:the Langley Schools Music Project's project's verison of "Calling Occupants of Interplantary Craft"

I thought I was adorable, I guess I was wrong.

I like this one a lot. I think of it as a continuation of "with downcast eyes..." The quote is a referance the song "Invisible Bird Sings" by the Panda Squad.
A Sketch Book Remembers
Drawn on almost a challange by my friend Joe Boo (Joe's Drawing of the Same Material is below). This is one of my favorite drawings of this Era.
The Colin Clary song "One Hundred Decembers" reference this drawing, or at least the sketch book that housed it.
that's me, walking with jesus.
It is not going to surprise you that I was listening to the Spacemen 3 a lot when I drew this little drawing. I am not going to post that song, but I am am going to post the twee cover by GirlFrendo.Walk with Jesus - GirlFrendo
up up and away!

Inspired by the Lucksmith's song "UP!" I drew this "Super Hero." I was going to continue with this style however, I liked when eyes looked like olives rather than eggs. So I disgarded this style.

"I miss my friends...."

this drawing was inspired by the braid song "what a wonderful puddle." Actually, by my friend Ben (he plays under the moniker 'Kind of Like Spitting') singing the song in my old apartment in to my video camera.
Kind of like Spitting: Wonderful Puddle
"Sometimes the nice boy wins."

This is flyer features artwork for the Album "Sometimes the Nice Boy wins" by the Part-Time Losers (aka Colin Clary.)

I highly suggest that you check it out. It can be found at http://www.northofjanuray.com or http://www.emusic.com. You will not be sorry. Here is a little taste of the brillance, Sapphire.
I could not draw the perfect star.........
This was drawn on my friend Kimmy's couch in Portland Maine. Her Sister Tay and I were visiting her. We listened to a LOT of Squeeze that weekend. It took a LONG Time to all the stars. I was very Influnced by explodingdog.com at this point, as you can tell from the wide mouths.
Squeeze: Good Bye Girl
"put an other record on"
This drawing was inspired by 3 songs one by the Magnetic Fields, one by Guppy Boy and one by Billy Bragg.This was drawn on the front porch of my friend Brad's in Boston. The Guppy Boy song is actually the song "Fall" which was released on the 'My Life or Is this some Dream' Brad's Club Fub Label.

You know that feeling you get when you realize you are finally over some one? Well that is what the quote is referring to. This drawing led to an other drawing (which I have yet to scan) it is of a Boy with a black eye and it says "I just used you to relate to Pop Songs." That Lyric would years later work it's self in to the Smittens Song "Doomed, Lo-fi and In love"
