Curious Markings Process Work

This page is dedicated to showcasing my process with the Curious Markings project. At this point, I have chosen to no longer pursue this project as a full-fledged business, but I still do create Curious Markings art from time to time. You can still see what I’m up to with the project on curiousmarkings.com.

If I’m being completely honest, I look back on a lot of this stuff and I cringe. I don’t know if I had a heightened state of ego when it came to my spirituality, or if I was trying to be someone else, or if I really was fully in a spiritual state. I respond to my works bouncing between those 3 opinions at any given time. As I write this now, I’m not feeling particularly spiritual, so yes, I cringe.

That being said, this project is open to interpretation, even when its creator is critical of it, so feel free to peruse these images and documents with an open mind. I will leave the interpretation up to you. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me.

AGHKGH! F@&# OFF POPUP!

Sorry, sorry! I just thought since you've been on this site for longer than average, you might hear me out?

Why do you do this to me, Ian...

Okay, okay, I'll be quick! I have a newsletter to keep you up-to-date on my content and projects. If my stuff tickles your pickle, help us both out by subscribing!

Also, I don't do anything shady or aggressive with your email address. I'll only send you the good stuff and won't share your email with any person/provider that isn't working for me to serve you better.

'Serve me better.' What deliciously vague jargon. Is this where you pretend to be me and you make me respond with a contrived form of consent because you're bold enough to assume this cute little chat interface gimmick is enough to actually get me to sign up?

Ummm... uhhh... ahh... Sign up and get exclusive discounts and early access!!!! Come ooooon! Induced scarcity is fun!


...alright, well, I'll leave it up to you.
