Father and Son by Ellis Nadler (Watercolour 18cm x 12cm.)
I've been reading a lot of books recently on father-son/parent-child relationships for a new blog project I'm toying with and hence the idea to turn IFN's creative genii to the theme of Us and Them (or Them and Us). I have given two options for posting as I feel most of us are probably torn between the two anyway. I look forward to seeing what you come up with.
IFN: Honour your father and mother/They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
Illustration Friday Night was a group art project that ran for over a year. It was created by Senor Prozac as a response to images being censored and banned on Illustration Friday.
The plan for IFN was to give artists an alternative platform for high-quality work that wasn't just about kitty-cats and cuddly ducklings.
Many of the 2000 images sumbmitted to the site provided a vibrant foil and counterbalance to IF-cutesiness.
It was nominated as a Blog of Note by Blogger in September 2007. Like a lot of things on the internet (and life in general), it ran out of steam in 2008.
