I get into some serious stuff about cutting down tress here. And comics! All kidding aside, I color some pages. I talk about coloring some pages. I think I might even say something worth hearing! Blueboy Brown Comics is getting into the meat of the story. Join the fun.
I finish up the lettering of page 55 and “ink” page 42 with a mechanical pencil. Anything is possible in the digital age. Hey, people from all over the world are watching. Imagine that in 1914!
I’m coloring and drawing page 055 of Blueboy Brown today. THIS IS A DAILY EVENT ON MY BLUEBOY BROWN COMICS YOU TUBE CHANNEL I’m live streaming at 10 a.m. I don’t know if that’s the correct, optima; time to stream, but I’ll figure it out. I’m an old man doing what I did back in the 1970s, except I know more now. Life isn’t so opaque.
This is a story of an American family. But a poor family. No rich people here, except in passing. This is 1914, just before the Great War. Something else is going on in Arkansas. It is significant, as all things are if looked at the right way. Enjoy this static theater.
This is the second day of live streaming Blueboy Brown Comics worldwide. People are watching from as far away as Australia, New Zealand, India, China, Japan, France, Israel, Hungary, Spain, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Canada. You name it, it is being watched. I appreciate everyone. This is my trilogy of trilogies.
This is theatre, old man theatre for a young person’s medium. I am showing video of my effort to drawing, coloring, and lettering page 054 of Blueboy Brown Comics. It’s still rough. But maybe if you turn off the audio. I had a nifty headphone/mic for gaming coming in the mail when I did this. Things improve. This is the life of an artist in America. This is the life of a cartoonist who came in from the cold.
My first live stream was broadcast on May 4th. This is the first time I have taken the opportunity to add them to the Blueboy Brown site.
I have eleven of them up so far, so I’ll start posting them at a pace of two or three a day.
It begins, as live video does, roughly. I used to teach television production, but that was twenty-three years ago. The whole life of an artist is now accessible like theatre. I do comics. I did comics back in the 1970s. Now I’m working on a nine-book series in the form of three trilogies. A trilogy of trilogies. Today I begin coloring page 53, which is the first page of Chapter Four: Back to Work. This is America a hundred or so years ago. World War I is just around the corner, but you don’t have to wait for the Great War. Something is always going on.
