Our 90’s Music Experience – Korea vs Australia

We talk about what it was like to be a hardcore fan in the 90’s. How is it different from today? What differences were there between Korea and Australia?

If you want to play along you can answer the questions too.

QUESTIONS:
Who was your favourite band/group in the 90’s?
Who was your favourite member?
How did you get your music information?
How did you see new music videos?
Did you buy magazines just for posters?
Did you make mix tapes?
What did you use the internet for back then?

Mosquito Bites

 

 

Mosquito Bites

 

(Quick comic again, busy with book stuff).

Mosquitoes don’t like me very much! They love my husband though and he will get a lot of bites. I’ve watched mosquitoes come near me before and they’ll hover above my skin for a few seconds and then often they’ll just fly away and move onto someone better tasting.

The things with the spoon

the things with the spoon

The day we both forgot the word “chopsticks”. My whole life I’ve been setting the table with “knives and forks” so that’s my excuse! Even though in recent years I use chopsticks more than knives and forks, it’s still ingrained in me that that’s how you set the table.

Koreans tend to use metal chopsticks and a spoon, so setting the table involves setting out the chopsticks with a spoon for each person.

Back to Painting and Update

Back to painting

This month is going to be really busy so there will probably be more of these quick comics. My usual comics can take hours to do but these ones can be done in 10 minutes. Sorry, you’ll have to put up with more of these for a while.

So I’ve started painting again! For those that don’t know I used to work as an artist and paint, mostly realism and mostly landscapes. I gave it up years ago. When I wanted to do something creative again I turned to blogging and comics and forced myself to learn how to draw digitally. That was pretty hard but I got used to it. Now I’m going back to painting I’m realising just how useful it is to be able to undo! So now I’m trying to get used to traditional art again. I’m continuing making comics almost every day, I’ll just be making other artworks as well.

Another great advantage of digital art however, is that we can easily make lots of prints! We are slowly working towards having an online store and probably the first thing available to buy will be signed prints of comics. When we did the giveaway, where the prizes were signed comics, a lot of people expressed interest in being able to buy prints of comics. I have hundreds and hundreds of comics so we’ll need to figure out which are the most popular ones and which ones people want to buy. So please let us know in the comment section! Which ones are your favourite?
