Glyph me a Break..

Image
As I’m surfing through cryptid related content online I’ve noticed a new hot topic that keeps coming up. There are many sites and postings online dedicated to studying ground glyphs (new term I've been seeing to describe sticks that are found placed in a certain way) and Bigfoot structures (term for fallen or placed tree branches or logs that form a design of sorts, or look like possible shelter). I want to mention first that ground glyphs are also called Geoglyphs, designs made by using durable elements of the landscape. And some of those strange trees I love with no tops and broken branches are called tree monoliths, if anyone was curious. (I totally was..of course 🙄).                                               Tree monolith  I’m not exactly sure when evidence for Bigfoot shifted its focus to tree placement. A possible reason is that when there is an absence ...

A Moment with a Monster 

Image
An MC Monster,  that is. On this monster of a Monday  I had a chance to ask the artist himself a few questions about his amazing characters, how he creates them and how you all can get an original from him. And I’m sure after you see them, you will be a follower of his art. And spoiler alert, he may, may,  be coming to a city near you soon.. An interview with an artist: Q: Can you tell me a little bit about the characters you create? “The monsters I create aren’t evil entities, but more of like watchful protectors, leaders or guides through the spiritual realm.”  My favorite piece, I picture it as a moment between the big guy and myself.. Q: When did you begin creating them? “I started playing around with this style in June 2017, after my little sister passed away.” Q: What process do you use to create these wonderful characters? “The process is more often then not just winging it. I lay down a background, and then sort of just go for it. When I’m doing com...

Extinction

Image
There has been so much talk about the world being crazy lately. The weather is insane, we are melting major ice shelves so the world will flood, asteroids are looming and well you get the idea. So if the scientists are right, and we have finally reaped all the planets resources with our greed and messed up the planet, will we become extinct by fate or design? If we have chosen our fate, humanity's fate that is, and we can’t prevent this plan from unfolding, are we taking all human-like life down with us as well? What about our hominid friends? We have called them human-like, are they enough homo sapien to go down with our sinking ship? I worry about this some nights while I’m trying to sleep. What about all the other life on this planet? What about all the little critters I love so much? My theory on the great dinosaur disaster is that when they got to a certain point of overpopulation and not enough resources, cosmic design took care of the problem. Much in the way we hunt deer...

Tale of Sasquatch and the Prince of Darkness..

Image
       Today I was doing all my prep and preening for the Ozzy Osbourne concert. Sadly there was not enough time and to hot to venture off into the woods and find Bigfoot. And it dawned on me, I probably enjoy both of them because to me they are similar to each other in a lot of ways...let’s look at how they compare together to me.. There are a few obvious ways they are alike so we can start with those, ones I’m sure you’ve guessed already on your own.  Let’s bullet a few together.  They both rose to stardom in the 70s They are both nightowls. How do we know this? It shows in their eyes..see below. Bigfoot’s eyes glow red out there in the dark, shows he is most likely nocturnal and sees well In the darkness and Ozzy's eyes are usually bloodshot. Showing us all that he doesn’t sleep. The language barrier, If you have ever heard the Sierra Sounds. A creepy recording of two Sasquatch communicating, then you know how scary and unintelligible their angua...

The Art Of Bigfoot..

Image
Today I thought we could chat a bit about the art of Bigfoot. I’m not talking the art in which he conducts his elusive maneuvers and rock throwing warfare, I mean the actual art of Bigfoot and the wondrous artists that make it available to us.  I appreciate all types of art. But that was a long time coming. Art to me was always a stress trigger when I was younger. I would have rather had an all day gym class than forty minutes of art. I can’t draw, not even a little. I still have trouble coloring within the lines and lastly I was taught how to paper mache puppets from a professional puppeteer, who happened to be my neighbor and I still can’t do it right. I was always told it’s the process not the product that counts, and when I was teaching, that was the theory I worked with. But even with that philosophy it still took a long while before I stopped ignoring all things art. Now, as an adult, I understand that you can appreciate it without being able to create it. Like someone who c...
