I do that from tie to time.
I hope you are keeping the digital versions of the drawings.

Nope. I've not scanned more than 10% of my drawings. That being said, I did a lot of clones and there is nothing truely original in the bag. Many generic pron / feeling / romantish scenes. Even A few comics.

Understandable, but sad to know that - as an elder I am quite attached to paper, to "the original", that will not look the same whatever good printing/scanning machine you can find.

There is no copy left, for most of them. It's a straight path to the Void.

Fun but sad fact: I couldn't help speaking to my drawings as I was trashing them. Something like: "goodbye, rendez-vous in the void".

I understand that too - I often say my own drawings are my children

Thats a shame but understandable

Tho make sure to not dump them with any utility bills!

if your brave enough tho....

Stick them in a Box. no label or anything linking to you IRL
Drive somewhere randomly and dump them

Somebody will discover the box and ether get a kick out of the drawings

or call the authorities

Your idea reminds me this strange "wood porn" tradition. People often abandoned porn stuff in the wood before the pre-internet aera. I don't like the concept. Too much exhibitionism in it.

That being said, I'd love to give my stuff to someone interested enough. Though I don't see how to do it.

Damn, yeah your right!

I'm sorry, that was a terrible idea! :(

No problem. I confess the idea of debauching someone by introducing him/her cute sexy drawings has always been a little fantasy of mines. Your idea looks like a variation on this theme.

Though I don't see how to do it.
There's this marvelous invention called the postal service. I hear it works quite well most of the time.

Considering, it would be probably be international shipping, it would disturb me spending so much for a bunch of pencil covered papers. It's not a question of money. It's more that, I mean, my art doesn't deserve it. Plus I've this habit to cut everything in little irregular pieces to extract the best drawings from big pages. So... it's barely decent. I don't know. I'd need to find someone very motivated.

According to your watch list, there are at least 862 people who found your stuff worth looking at. I remember it taking a bit of hunting to find you here after club.fr, so I'm sure there are a few more stragglers still out there.

Get a weight on it and see what it'd cost to send. If your postal service offers it, media mail rates will probably be the cheapest way. If nobody else is jumping on it already, let me know. I'm on the American east coast.

And you can send me one of those cute 2CVs while you're at it.

ok it's on my todo list

How's that list coming along?

Not decided yet actually.. I have this bag will all my drawing.. Keep it with me for the moment.

Still haven't forgotten.

...

Seems like a shame to lose all that. :/ Too bad you can't just sell it or offer it off to someone.

I'd love to do so. In my absurd dreams, I give my artist name to someone who keeps on developing my characters.

I guess it depends how often you draw.

I've done so little art in my life, keeping everything is no big deal. All my stuff fills about half of my metal filing cabinet. The rest of the cabinet holds my bills, investment portfolio, and taxes (somewhat ironically).

It's more a question of "brain room". I sorted, cropped and looked at my drawings for years, with no rewarding but the fact that I was day-draiming it could be looked at by someone else who'd like what he/she sees, but it won't happen so I'm making an effort to return into reality.

Oh you never know you might meet someone. But if you think its harmful to you, maybe this is the right course of action. I advise against rashness though.

Now that I think about it, I don't think it's so armful. But I wonder if keeping this stuff perturb my personal development, a bit like an hoarder.

just put it away then perhaps? If its a good idea today it will be a good idea tomorrow. Just in case you're grappling with questions of morality I might be able to help.

Maybe scan them? That way it'll be more portable and if you ever decide that you want them back they'll still be around.

I could take one picture a day with my phone, put it in the scraps gallery and trash the culprit. Might be fun.
