yesterday I was watching “singing in the rain” as homework for university, and when I reach to the last song I couldn’t help but think of Gladstone singing it to Magica!

IT’S OVER! I can’t believe how much money you guys raised! Just amazing, now all the hard work starts for me but you can kick back and know those books are gonna HAPPEN BABY OH YEAH! We didn’t hit the stretch but my goodness it came close! We’ll see about a rerun of volume 1 in the future but for now this is just- man, this is amazing. You are all amazing. Also this is the print that I’ll be signing for the 50 buck rewarders (that’s just a digital mock up signature but you get the real deal! so look forward to that folks!) but I figured it was appropriate to post it now :’D THANK YOU SO. SO. MUCH.
Various comics and illustrations by Tiger Tateishi.
Tiger Tateishi - Known for his surreal paintings, his comics are noteworthy for their interesting psychedelic gags that use an early manga visual vocabulary. Very different from his paintings. Want to find more of this.
- TATEISHI Tiger was born in Fukuoka in 1941.
- In 1963, he submitted a large collage to the 15th Yomiuri Independent Exhibition, which received much attention. Subsequently he went on to be heavily influenced by Pop Art, which he aptly converted to address aspects of Japanese everyday life as well as the country’s current issues.
- From the mid ‘60s, he gradually began to draw cartoons.
- In 1969 he moved to Italy, where he worked for Olivetti typewriters as a designer, while finding time to exhibit his paintings at such places as Alexander Iolas gallery.
- From the mid 80’s his work began to feature epitomizing motifs of Japan, such as Mt. Fuji.
- In 1998, he passed away in Chiba prefecture.From his inception as an artist in 1962, until 1967, TATEISHI Tiger was known by his birth name of TATEISHI Kouichi. But from 1968 until mid 1990, he developed, for its convenient catchiness, the moniker Tiger TATEISHI, which was not only written in ‘kana’, the phonetic notation reserved for non-Japanese words, but the order of first and last name was switched to mimic the Western manner. Although he continues to be remembered posthumously by the same moniker, the ‘kana’ has been converted to Chinese characters and the order of first and last name has been reverted to the original Japanese manner.

this colourful ice cave on the kamchatka peninsula in russia was formed by a stream flowing beneath glacial ice which emanates from hot springs associated with a nearby volcano. and because glaciers in the area have been melting in recent years, the roof of this cave is now so thin that sunlight is able to penetrate it, illuminating the cave and colouring it with volcanic ash and organic material trapped in the ice.

Anonymous asked: I'm not sure how to word this in quite the way I want but- the way you present the universe of tpoh, in both art and writing, fills me with this really? Warm, kind of distant feeling, sort of like watching someone arrive home after a very long trip, a kind of third-person sense of comfort and familiarity, if that makes sense at all? Its very nice though! Aaa I'm rambling a bit hi I love your art and I love tpoh and I hope you have a really great day!!

TPoH: website update!
Heyo! SO the home TPoH website is up again, but only because my beautiful, lovely and generous website host pal has given me every last shred of spare bandwidth he has; hopefully this will last until the end of the month, but please maybe go easy on visiting the site as if it goes down again that’ll be it for a while!
Since that’s such a crap thing to say I am going to work as hard as I can to get all of TPoH up onto Tapastic here, and if you think it’d be worthwhile I may put my other comics (the square tales and TPatJ) up there as well. If you’re from imgur or are otherwise desperate to throw a link to the comic at your friends, please use this one!
Also to the douchebag who uploaded all of TPoH to imgur without a credit, um, fuck you?
Sorry for the hassle!
an unprecedented moment in native american history happened this week
I don’t think non-Natives understand what a HUGE FREAKING DEAL this is. This is amazing. The show of solidarity is just…it’s amazing. Regardless of the end result, these gatherings will not be forgotten.

A collective of miscellany and mirth. Also sometimes I draw stuff.
