<p>The DAS is a limited edition, staggered drop of shirts boasting original designs from the local artists whose paintings grace the walls of Pioneer Square's preeminent delicatessen-themed boutique. The plan's to drop one new tee per month, but for <a id="critical_mass_2" title="critical mass" href="http://www.thrillist.com/redirect/94380/article/popup/cutie.jpg/?u=/popup/94380/cutie.jpg/critical+mass" target="_blank">critical mass</a> purposes, they're kicking off with four, including ... a cartoonish hand whose TV-encrusted gold ring broadcasts a mushroom cloud (from toy designer/illustrator Kyle Kesterman, who sometimes gives his stuff away for free if you can find the hidden words doodled therein);</p>

<p>At Comic Con in July I met The Brothers Washburn, 2 eccentric and very generous creatives. We chatted for a bit and they invited me to participate in their next volume. I did a version of their character Rayola character, along with an interview.<br /> <br /> Today they released <a href="https://www.colorinkbook.com/?p=1332" target="_blank">Volume 5</a>! <br /> Some of the artists included are:<br /> Bill Alger, Glen Barr, 110 Special Black, Olla Boka, Riccardo Bucchioni, Andy Council, Deplanetart, Formfieber, Kyle Kesterson, David Lanham, McBess, Kenn Munk and more.<br /> <br /> There are 2 cover options and I have 8-16 pages with characters in the issue. Grab it and support the cause!</p>

<p>&ldquo;If we sketched Doodling into a family tree, it could be the cousin of comics, the child of activism, and the nephew of Graffiti (an uncle who encouraged it to sneak out of the house at night and acquire a shared addiction to big walls and the adrenaline rush of personal risk.)</p>
<p>A doodle is defined as an unfocused drawing, which is made almost subconsciously; the mind preoccupied or struggling to deny distraction. A doodle takes shape in the void, finding form from the shadows. Doodle as defense.&rdquo;</p>

<p>I got my first, and only tattoo. It was done with UV ink, so after it heals, it will only show up under black light. I'll post more photos after it heals.</p>
