SOME THINGS DON'T MAKE THE CUT


It's hard to say how many drawings are in my book AGGREGATE. On the back cover, it says "over 150". That was just a big number thrown out there because I knew it was safely over that. But honestly, I think the number is closer to 200 drawings - but that's because there are lots of little doodles and snippets included - and can I rightly count all of those as separate drawings? Probably. But it's not necessary to count every single one - the buyer of one of these books is definitely getting their money's worth if only in amount of things to look at.

But even with how many pieces got put into the book, I have a whole folder of drawings that didn't. Probably another 100 or so drawings I'd say. Picking artwork for the book was mainly about quality - but I also made cuts based on diversity. And some cuts were made, simply because the book is 80 pages long - not 81. Something had to get left behind. So this piece here was to be the drawing on the last page up until pretty late in the game when I did some reshuffling and reworking. Even though it didn't get in, I thought I'd give it an extra life here on the blog. Enjoy!

CAN YOU GET FUNGUS FROM AGGREGATE?


Are you one of the many people concerned about contracting a harmful or embarrassing fungus from handling AGGREGATE: The Art of Steve Prescott? Studies have shown that 1 out of every 245 million people will be exposed to fungus spores (known as "Myconids") - most notably on page 68 of AGGREGATE. Are you one of those people? Top scientists believe so.

If you are a hypochondriac and are very easily duped by health-related scare tactics, then you are at extremely high risk. But hope is closer than you think. In a Harvard study of 3 people that may have had a fungus problem, symptoms subsided after the purchase of a second or even third copy of AGGREGATE!

If you think you may be at risk, ask a doctor about this delightful book of pencil drawings. Or, just self-diagnose and begin your treatment today!
