[Digital drawing created in MS Paint on my old laptop!]
Sitting in the backyard under a tent thing. Mariah thinks I’ve been depressed lately. Only one thing to do for depression! Make some artz...

"Dragon Attack (Glitch)"
[Ballpoint pen on notebook page with digital embellishments, color, moshing, and animation...sort of...] Title borrowed from a song by "Queen." Drawing not borrowed from anybody. I can draw this badly all by myself! Ha!

"Mysterious Entity" by RFY (HF) & FEH (TT)
[Felt pen, crayon, and sticker collage on construction paper with digital embellishments, color, and drawing.] This is an isolated (and digitally finished) image from a larger piece created by me and my then two-year-old granddaughter, Felicity. (She is three now!) I'm not sure if this is a ghost or an alien or an alien-ghost or some kind of artificially creature created in a lab somewhere... (We won't find out until season three, I bet!) ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool) & Felicity Echo Hanson (Toddler Terror)

Sold!

"It Started on the Hillside"
[Felt pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] There were only two witnesses who survived, but they both agreed... It started on the hillside...
P.S. - It's time for a new freebie! 23 editions being minted and released for exactly ZERO TEZOS each! Woooooo!

Gone... Took less than an hour, AND I forgot to make the royalties 23%! Ha! (My loss. Flippers’ gains!)

“Mental Stability”
[Ink on notebook page over digital drawing with digital embellishments, color, and moshing.] It's funny... The more complex my PROCESS for creating things, the more they don't seem to get any "better" (in a "technical" sense.) Still enjoy making stuff, though, and that's something!

“For endpop”
[Ballpoint pen on notebook page!] This is how a majority of my artwork begins---as physical drawings in a notebook or on a chunk of cardboard or a canvas... Something IRL!!! Meanwhile, endpop said in a note on Tweeterz that he liked the drawing at THIS point (before all the digital elements were added.) No razzle-dazzle, just an ink on paper sketch! (ENJOY, Claude! Do whatever you want with it!!!)

"Live to Read (White Out)" by RFY (HF) & FEH (TT)
[Mixed media digital collage.] I'm amused by the ambiguity. Who WERE these people, and where are they now??? ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool) & Felicity Echo Hanson (Toddler Terror)

"Candy Skull (June 2022)"
[Felt pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments, color, layers, and moshing.] I guess I've been in a skullz mood, lately. Undoubtedly related to my anxiety and the terror of modern life. (If I make the memento mori the same color as cotton candy, it can't hurt me, right???)

"Twitchy Skullz (Pale)"
[Digital drawing over digital collage.] This is anxiety art. I'm feeling better now (cuz I like cartoon skullz.)

"Lazer Eye Devil Bird" by RFY (HF) & FEH (TT)
[Felt pen on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color.] Here's another freaky collaboration from me (the Holy Fool) and my granddaughter (the Toddler Terror, Felicity!) We know how to make some monsters! ---Richard F. Yates (HF) & Felicity Echo Hanson (TT)
P.S. - Cuz I'm a neat-o weirdo-head, I'm releasing this piece as a FREEBIE! Making 23 editions and letting them GO for exactly ZERO TEZOS each! (23% royalties this time, so the peeps who want to keep this creature can get the work for free, but the flippers have to share a bit extra with me! (And, maybe, the little kid, too! Ha! Actually, I spend most of my extra cash on crayons, paper, glitter, chalk, and all that fun stuff, so she's getting her share!!!)

“Durgs (Ruin Lifes)” by Richard F. Yates (and others)
[Found image (acquired from a Faceboot Subgenius page) with digital embellishments, hand-drawn digitized bits, and spiritual/digital weirdening.] Yes. We have pretty strong evidence that "DURGS" are, in fact, dangerous. However, the unknown artist who painted this message clearly has an ear/eye for poetry, and (as I said when I first spotted the original image), "I'm happy to know that there is still poetry in the world!" ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool) [plus unknown graffiti artist AND unknown photographer...]

"Not Happy Spider"
[Digital drawing created in MS Paint with my ancient laptop!] It seems to me that this little spider has seen better days! Head up, little dude!

I’m still collecting artz, too! (Luckily, I’ve had a couple of sales, lately, and I use the proceeds to mint new work and grab a few neat-o pieces from other creators!!!

Later. (Time to go make more artz!)
