From a flesh-obsessed San Franciscan who quit her job as a hot-shot government lawyer in favor of full-time artistry, Drywell Art offers up hand-drawn butchery-style diagrams of meats both real (pig/cow) and optimistically awesome (Twitter's Fail Whale), all of which're available as 13X19 posters or miniature prints...
What are the different parts of a fat sheep? The Twitter bird? A hot dog? Domokun? Artist Alyson Thomas shows you the way at her blog Meat Sections where she shares original butchery-style art, mostly pig-shaped, sometimes inedible, and always fun.....
These simple – clever – vivid – fantastic watercolor & ink pieces make me want to giggle. a lot. and i don’t think it’s the 3 hours of sleep in 48 hours thing… although it could be. doubtful......
Some people really like my stuff . . .
From a former immigration lawyer who, despite zero formal art training, got “her balls out of her
purse" and started making watercolor/ink/charcoal prints inspired by butcher diagrams, Drywell attempts to identify the "meat-analogous sub-components of everyday life", though everyday life would suck if your sub components were only "meat-analagous".
“I’m just kind of riding this meat train for a while.”
Alyson Thomas, in the San Francisco Chronicle
