FIRST PROJECT OF 2022.

I bought this giant canvas-photo-print from Goodwill in October 2021 for just, like, $5 or something. Because I hadn’t intended to go to Goodwill on my walk, I had to carry this giant thing with both hands for the 20 minutes walk home while it caught the wind like a boat sail 😂

Prepping the canvas so the smooth plastic-y surface will be grippy enough for materials to stay adhered to it and (hopefully) not peel off later.

Below, I'm tracing the section of buildings so I can draw directly onto the paper while I'm sitting normally at a table, and then use transfer paper to copy my final lines onto the collage paper that will be cut out and affixed to the canvas.

The idea is to draw one little figure frolicking and fucking through the city every day and glue it down this month. How many days are in January? Someone should really count that up, that seems like good information to have. Anyway, at the end of January, I’ll have that many number of little people on my enormous photo-canvas-print thing.

Do those gold paper silhouettes look familiar? They showed up in the first and third weeks of my Daily Collage project.

For the gold paper, I transfer my sketch using carbon paper onto the back side of the sheet, because the metallic side doesn't absorb the marks as well. Of course, that means I have to mirror the figure, so it'll be facing the right way when it's flipped over.

Ok, this one was kind of a disaster. I mean. I guess that's a bit much. But. This was a disaster. See, I wanted to put this figure here, on top of this tower-thing:

BUT (and I'm sorry I didn't take a photo so I could show you) the gold was too tonally similar to the background, so the figure just... blended in. After sliding the figure over different spots, I settled on putting them here:

Which I instantly regretted because it looks like they're a golden city street pooper.

BUT (butt) I remedied this a couple days later with a callback to the shock porn video du jour of the late 2000s. That’s right. It’s the return of…

CAKE FARTS.

Who could forget Cake Farts? Not I, my friends. Not I.

So, there we go. I have restored the reputation of this figure from a disreputable sidewalk pooper to a perfectly wholesome pervert partaking in some kinky cake farting. CRISIS AVERTED.

January 6

My first couple! At first I wasn't sure if I should only add one figure per day, so a fucking couple would be added over the course of two days. My thinking was 31 figures for 31 days. But, then I remembered I am the God of this flat world and I can do what I want, so I'll add as many figures as I want so long as I make at least one addition a day.

⬆️ Tape to mark the building edges where I’d be cutting off parts of the figures, so they’d look like they were obstructed by sections of wall.

December 8

First seven days! I'm kinda digging how there's not a super obvious difference between the first and second photo- you've gotta really look up close to see what's going on.
