Wow! You have been busy! You are about to get even busier, looking thru those magazines--be careful, you can get lost looking thru magazines. Suddenly, you will realize that you are missing hours of time. I went thru my magazines years ago and ripped out all the pages I would be using for reference and put them in a binder. Then, I wouldn't have to keep flipping thru whole magazines each time i am looking for inspo. Your Baxter bags look so good! Your cat zine looks so good! Keep up the momentum, Jason🎉
Haha! I could probably spend the rest of my days just looking through these magazines! I’m pretty excited about the prospect. My thing is that I can look through one and then five years later find stuff that I passed over the first time. So I just hoard everything. And now with this, it’s kind of insane. 😂 Also, pretty excited with all my cat art too! 😹
Nice! A few years ago I filled the back of my Subaru with some 80s and 90s Nat Geos that a friend gave me. I collaged with a few of them, but it was harder to find stuff I liked than I thought... then I donated them when I was moving because I just didn't have a place to store them. But man, that is an awesome haul, especially the older ones. I know what you mean about needing to clean and organize! It's really great to see your printing process.
Yeah, I really love the ones from the 50s and 60s. The print quality is definitely different. I think it was pre-gloss or something. But, I do love using the newer ones as drawing reference materials. There were some fun looking humans in the 80s!
What a magazine haul! I'll be curious to see how you end up using the National Geographics. Love your cassette tape-listening cat lino, and your zine covers look great too.
@@ianmargolycz I could definitely give it a shot! I have always had a hard time getting that to work. But now I have limitless materials to try with! 😂
@jasonelambeth You and me both! 😄 I think I tried it once or twice. Apparently, you need to have patience (which I don't have) and let the layers dry in between steps? Not totally sure. Looks awesome when it works, though.
Omg! I didn’t think anyone would be interested!? 😂 Welll, I’m currently saving everything for an art market in mid-May and then hoping that I can post stuff that doesn’t sale online after. If you want to DM me on Instagram, I can definitely get you guys a zine though!

Thanks so much Marcy! Already making lots of collages! 😂
What a great find! Super high quality photos in those things. Definitely worth it. 🤘
Agreed!! I’m super pumped. I’ve already spent the last couple of mornings making collages out of them.
@@jasonelambeth I bet you could use some of the images for gelprint transfers as well!

I don't know if you've checked this channel out, but he does a lot of gel plate transfers. Might be helpful.

Used for sale at a library I found a set of National geographic magazines released the month of the year I was born. Of course I needed to get it.
Wise choice! I wonder if I have my birthday month in this collection. I will have to keep my eyes peeled. It would be fun to see what was going on!
@@jasonelambeth odds are in your favor!
@@Impractical_Engineer lol. So true!
I love the one of the cat drawing of a cat drawing of a cat drawing haha 10/10
Yeahhhh, I’ve always wanted to do something like that! Finally!! 😹😹
How to buy a zine and a cat shirt? My son and I are very excited about the Drawings of my Cats! 😊
