Baby, You're A Firework
Amy Jean Porter's first book, Of Lamb, a collaboration with the poet Matthea Harvey, was just recently published. Her show at P.P.O.W. Gallery in Manhattan is up through this Friday, July 22.
Soooo great! #teamlily
Wow, I could fall into that tiger lily drawing. Beautiful and hilarious, as always.
fireworks!
Amazing that such a shit song could inspire beauty.
(Seriously, the woman barks like a fucking seal.)
"Fun weed balls!"
The drawings are wonderful as usual. But I think this might be my very favorite example of Amy Jean Porter's "Writings in a Hurry" yet.
"Bursty flickery fade-fade-fade…"
@Dave Bry Such a great description of the beat of a shadow on a moving platform.
AMY!!!!! Oh my god I love these
Blah Dee La Dee Doot Yee ahhhhhh this whole thing is so perfect!
Now that's I've read through the whole post it is lovely. But the first lilly triggered a PTSD reaction in me, i.e. OH GOD IT'S A GEORGIA O`KEEFE EXHIBIT WHERE DO I RUN TO??
Going to college in the 70's left its scars, I tell you.
I looove this post. Every 4th of July my daughter and I cut a bouquet that's supposed to evoke fireworks. We always pick red bee balms, white Shasta daisies, and blue(ish) butterfly bush, filled in with whatever else might seem patriotic and firework-y.
