R. Crumb is just as offensive as ever, and I love it because it's so visceral and politically incorrect. And, even though he's an anti-vaxxer, I still love his work. nytimes.com/2022/09/15/t-mag…

How to fill a blank sketchbook: Have an intention. If you don't have an intention, you can just think in formal terms with simple shapes, and they usually lead to something. Don't rip out old pages, you don't have time to waste.

Drawing is like listening. At first, it might not look like much, but if you keep nodding it on, more and more interesting things emerge.
