suicide girl

By Pat Law™ • Jul 15th, 2008

I find this rudely insensitive and disrespectful for its choice of visual cues.

Everyone, meet Elena Gallen. Be prepared to have your childhood memories thrown into her blender, minced into a perfect glass of sheer wickedness.



audrey gets darker

Audrey Kawasaki never fails to draw me on with her strokes, her multi-dimensional emotions, her ability to portray her thoughts with such concentrated intensity.



adam’s apple

By Pat Law™ • Feb 16th, 2008
