Vampire Medusa for City Council - Kb DigiDoodle Canvas Print

This is a long one and the attached photos show the other artworks I collaged to make this one. :) 

About the Art.
"Vampire Medusa for City Council," DigiDoodle

It's gotta be said, I have no fucking idea what I'm doing.

This art, this business, this art business, the spray of the paintings, the 3dPrinting and the brutal process, oh that fucking unholy desperation of it all... Is it any good? No fucking idea.

That moon is smoking a cigarette, wearing sunglasses and that's how clouds are made. Should I add an eyebrow to this yellow blob? Fuck it, give it beefy arms. That yellow blob needs the sex appeal. I don't know if it's right, but it makes me laugh a LOT. It's a cackle thing.

This is about a singularly weird sense of humor, all alone, solitude as modern solitaire-like, detached and orbiting in dark goo. That cackle works like a lighthouse and only occasionally points me along.

I wonder if you can hear the giggles through the screen of the dumbest fucking art stuff ever. Oh man the fucking JOY of knowing it's dumb and submitting it anyway.

There's almost an elegance to the idiocy of it all. Maybe.

Thousands of poems, a bunch of prose, screenplays, paintings, photography, endless little compositions, maybe two are ok, and all other sorts of things too, BUT comedy? FUUUUCK that. It's easier to fill your belly as an artist than write comedy.

Cleverness of art thinking can be slippery and at times uncomfortably sad, a dementedly addictive and confusing way of going about things. So if something makes ME laugh, maybe that's a decent gauge?

Between cleverness and laughing with myself... I dunno man, everything happens to me and I don't know how to sort it out.

It would be like me doing an onlyfans and wearing a sparkled banana hammock, at a tasteful angle obviously, reading Neruda poetry in the native Spanish for the nice folks. I don't think it would work, but goddamnit it feels right.

And so, that's the disclaimer for the Medusa for City Council Digidoodle.

When I started with spray paint in 2020, I made a vampire wearing cool shades and all this time later, turns out it was Medusa. Vampire Medusa. Cool shades like Cool Tapes. It's supposed to be a creative exercise. What if she was a big Leslie Knope fan? AND what if Vampire Medusa's origin story was from being friends with Emilio the Psychotic from another painting?

He's the caretaker of Dracula's castle who runs the Castle business when Dracula is out backpacking through history. What if they teamed up for a local legislative dream? I chuckled a bit, but I was immediately overwhelmed in panic because how the fuck do you execute this nonsensical idea?

Ugh, yet again, existentially hurting myself with yet another fucking thing that won't work. I made the outline and just started ornamenting things, peppering it up with little bits from other paintings and fresh DigiDoodlin. I don't always LoL, but when I LoLed here, goddamnit I LoLed a phat LMAObro.

And yet, this all started with the story of Emilio, a painting I glued some 3dP shit I made because I can't draw. Let me take you there.

Who and why is Emilio?

In kinder, Castlevania genuinely scared me. Part ONE on NES with it's shitty graphics. Those little bone guys and the swamp dudes?! Holy moly.

But I love the idea of this Emilio, the real dreamer of the Dracula story. SOMEONE had to make sure the property taxes are paid on time and the AC filters are switched out. And WHO is going to mind all those heinous Hellish Houndies of the Heck?!?

Come on bro, they have sensitive stomachs and NEED the appropriate amount of soul juice AND one of them is allergic to AB positive blood. If you can't take care of your pets, DON'T HAVE PETS. Unless you've got Emilio. Guess who gets the hellhounds' anal glands expressed? Fucking scraggle tooth Emilio. That's who.

So I made a tribute painting but because I can't draw I made a shitty castle in CaD, 3dPrinted and glued it with some flowers because Emilio, for as psychotic and scary as he is, is super into patios and garden sales. I gave him some musical superpowers and decided he was going to be Vampire Medusa's running mate.

Once upon a time, the ukelele Super Master, a phrasing.

I don't think ukulele super master in that phrasing is a thing and I think that's a fucking hilarious way to say he's an expert at the sweetest and most demonic of instruments, the Uke... and Emilio THE Psychotic?!?! Why is he so psychotic! Is he misunderstood?

Is it because he never got braces for his prickly teeth? How dare you body shame Emilio.

Is he so insane like some friends we all have whom (who? whose? whotherefore?)'s name start with C, end with an E, likes witchy books and puts pineapple on pizza (ew girl ew)..?? is he THAT crazy?

No. Just a monster with a beautiful daydream.

He is but a simple, psychotic monstrous soul, with grand ideas of megalomanic genius for Dracula's castle to help make some extra dough for the staff.

One day he told his friend Vampire Medusa after a deathly midnight round of disc golf this crazy day dream.

Club Vee-Med totally got it. Man she fucking GOT it. As someone who is misunderstood a lot, Vampire Medusa fucking HEARD Emilio.

"Bro, let's take this fucking giant castle while Dracula's backpacking.. or whatever he's doing and we can open it for the Seasonal goths!?!

See, the business here is all about the fluency and simplicity of modern Travel. They click a button, ding dang dong, ghost horses and some spooky MnMs in a dark cottage, some fog.. allllll the fucking fog for the seasonal goths... SPOOKY BOOM! Blood moon view over a hot haunted bath. It's all about the experience."

Fun fact!

Did YOU know that Dracula's castle is next to the nefarious forest with the BEST combo of lavender, rosemary, hibiscus AND fucking mint?! Weirdly smells like haunted honeydew.

Vee-MEd thought, "maybe add a hot topic next to a YEAR ROUND Spirit Halloween Shop, turning seasonal goths into All Business Goths."

Being a super master at ukulele who only does My Life with the Thrill Killl Cult and NIN covers, for these seasonal goths? The YOUNG seasonal goths? He'll learn some of that emo shit too. Maybe some Haily jams for those sweetest of the goths, the legendary Otis, aka the Red One from the Beyond.

So Vampire Medusa, being the ultimate boss bitch entrepreneur, and sensitive to being misunderstood decided to run for local office to make this dream a reality. It all begins at a local level, after all.

Thus here we are, a DigiDoodle later.

Yep! Guest stars from other artworks made their way into the story.

I made a Boogie Time Butterfly smoking a cigarette painting but accidentally misspelled "Time" with "Fime" because I was nervous about not fucking it up and normally like adding some stank to my letter Fs...but then had to scratch it out and fix it. So, Boogie Fime(ish) Butterfly.

Other friends, Hiss Snake, the death clouds and dead monkey ghost make an appearance too.

Are you still reading this?

Dunno why. This 8th version needs another draft but I'm ending it here. So let me summarize this whole thing.

Just quit being a bitch about it and be supportive of people with big dreams. Please vote for Vampire Medusa for city council and in her eternal immortal words, "give a hoot, don't pollute, that's what I always say." Read between the fucking lines bro. It's poetic and all.
