End of Days

By Mark Kaufman
30 projects in 30 days is mercifully over. Seen here is a collage of all 30 pieces I did over the last month. To recap, last month someone asked me if I ever just post work that I do for fun. Thinking about it I decided to do a small project a day for a month for no other reason than to do it. Here’s what I learned from this experiment. I draw lots of human heads. I did try to stretch by doing assemblages, collage, phototography, typography, etc., but still I revert back to drawing heads. The most important thing I learned is that most people aren’t the least bit interested in my haphazardly, dashed off nuggets of ego. I did gain a few pieces that I think are pretty good, and a few ideas, but overall it detracted from the purpose of this blog, to show my work, seek out interesting illustrators and designers, write about the things that interest me and hopefully others, politics, illustration, art, design and popular culture. And run-on sentences. I promise, except for an occasional sketchbook post, I won’t ever post work just because I can.
