State!

This is the full artwork for the image glimpsed in my Blog title caption. Just something with one foot in the real world. Its based on a urbanely challenged North Belfast Man dressed in a loose ensemble of leisure/sports casual wear's reaction to anything his brain cannot process or take in. He files it under State. As in WILL YOU LOOK AT THE STATE OF YOU. Or WHY ARE YOU IN THIS WORLD WITH ME? Its a pretty broad blanket that covers a whole host of non-spide related actualites. For a clearer understanding of the use of the term spide you could look it up in the excellent book THE SPIDES MANIFESTO. A scholarly work that sits very comfortably next to Darwins Origin Of Species or Adams Hitch-hikers Guide To The Galaxy in terms of scope and educational ambition. I have been the object of this spidean definition on more than one occasion and indeed a friend pointed out to me that it is no accident the target of the scorn of the urbanely challenged North Belfast Man dressed in a loose ensemble of leisure/sports casual wear in the drawing is a rabbit. As my surname is acually the irish word for rabbit. BOOM! He Frueded me like a bitch!
