Office Sketches

Office SketchesOffice Sketches (book)

Print: $7.95

These exquisitely drawn office sketches chronicle over a year of working in the advertising industry. Each mark of lacerating genius was thoughtfully recorded in the margins and gutters of briefs, discarded printouts, or the company stationary. Who knew how inspiring boredom and profound soul-crushing dissatisfaction could be! I hope these sketches provide you as much excitement as what drove me to doodle them in the first place. This is a small selection from a much larger and more depressing collection of amazingness and virtue.

Sad Poems

Sad PoemsSad Poems (book)

Print: $6.95

Sad Poems reflect on the darker side of life. These expertly crafted verses cut to the poignant truths of love, loss, hope, fear, desire, struggle and other human conditions. Written during my brief downtime at work, they stink like the smell of a sister who has died after many years of painful and hopeless cancer. They are a cautionary tale. They are both a guide and the unbeaten path. Live with them, let them dissolve. Unlike a lot of sad poetry, these were purposefully written to be bad. And that is good.
