Only two more weeks!!


If you've been following along on my instagram you'll know that in two weeks (no! less than two!) I'm hosting a BIIIIGGG group exhibition featuring 120+ artists. They've all doodled new scribble sheets not featured on this blog before, so I can't wait to share them with you! Here's the facebook event page for Melbourne folks. Come along to the opening night on June 5th 2014 at 6-8pm!

UPDATE: If you missed the exhibition I've uploaded all the sheets OVER HERE ON TUMBLR for you to peep! They're so incredibly creative and interesting, enjoy!

OUR SCRIBBLY TATTOO PARLOUR!


Today's scribbler(s!) is everyone who came out to The Scribble Project Tattoo Parlour yesterday at the Bend & Snap Market in Melbourne! We inked that skin up REAL GUUUUUD! Our four skin-canvas volunteers were very patient and stood very still as we doodled wild squirrels on their chest and sophisticated monocle tattoos on their pretty young face. Actually maybe we can't call them "volunteers" exactly since I did birth these three bikini-clad sisters (and that one dude) from my own paint tins. Would we call Frankenstein a volunteer? Have I ever seen that movie? Not important right now.

Either way they looked pretty chuffed with all the attention (and thigh tickles) they were getting! Especially the dude I painted in the romantic boxer shorts. You could tell he loved it. My little brother doodled a tattoo on his right bicep saying "im awsome and strong" heh! Because ladies don't know these things unless you make it very clear. In black permanent ink. On your bulging bicep. And with that dating advice from a young boy with eight whole years of life experience I'll wrap things up here!

...and some very serious crotch doodling by these two dudes, heh! Follow me on instagram (@scribbleproject) for behind the scenes photos. I mean "behind the scenes" making the tattoo parlour, not "behind the scenes" doodling crotch. Cool!

+++ Magic Powers +++


Today's scribbler is Yanrong, a fellow Melbourne chick! Isn't it funny how we get all chummy when we find out that someone shares our hometown? Once we realise we're wearing the same metaphorical team jerseys then BAM, we're bonded. But maybe I have bumped into Yanrong at some point? Maybe we've done the awkward footpath dance when she was going left and I was trying to go right and "whoops you go" and "no sorry you go" etc! Maybe! Anyway: road trips, campfires, magic powers and ocean-life in her lungs? She sounds like a fun friend to have around. Next time I'm in the city and notice someone with ink under her nails and seawater bubbles popping out her nostrils I'll be sure to say helloooo!

Stuff My Ma Told Me


Today's scribbler is my good mate Melissa Tan! We met last year at a hostel in LA and shared a common love of "assorted dips" and I admired (still admire) her bold use of tupperware snacks when we go out. I think "tupperware snack preparedness" is my new favourite quality in a friend. Also! She's editor of music blog Who The Hell and you might (or I might, since you're not here) sum her up as a clever and friendly hunk of pretty lady with very itchy feet. I mean "itching to travel" not the scabies kind. ♥♥

Beer O'Clock


Today's scribbler is an illustrator and push-poker from Melbourne. He goes by the alias No Scribbles (so right away I have a soft spot for him!) with his line-art painted on walls all over my city and poked into local skin. It wasn't until I found his colouring book that I first wondered what the world would be like if animals had spray cans and people-legs. Now I think about it all the time! Well... some of the time.
