If you are looking for a high-brow explanation and analysis of my illustrations….. you’re in the wrong place ya goof.
The style of rubber-hose animation/illustration brings tasty morsels of nostalgia, whimsy, and for lack of a better term; “cute”. But with this “cute”ness there is a hefty sprinkling of macabre, woe, and somewhat unsettling subject matter.
Most popular in the golden age of animation, the 1920s & 30s, the style of rubber-hose has characters’ arms, legs, etc. typically illustrated as if they were made of rubber tubing and without elbows or knees.
Look, the world is serious enough at the moment; let’s just enjoy the crumbs of silliness and wonder we can get.
All illustrations are originally created by hand, and colored using only 4 colors (CMYK) of dots in monochromatic layering. Limited Edition Prints available for most of the citizens below.
Want something more, well the Afarr Shop has merch for most of the citizens below. Or if that’s not good enough for you, illustration commissions are available!
Now look, I’ve rambled! Go check out the illustrations, characters, and their stories.
