Here's how I got over the hump of too long away from anything arty: a Sharpie, some good thick paper, and acrylic paint. Voila! Strange colorful cartoons were born.
Talk to the Hand
Acrylic and Sharpie on paper
11 1/2' x 17 1/2'"
Talk to the Hand, a little goofy cartoon fun, with some '90s flashback slang. Originally, there was another half of this, a woman's face, but she didn't really go anywhere, so a little judicious folding and tearing led to the current size.
The F words seemed to work with the overall theme.
