Art vs. Artist

A fine afternoon to you, friends!

As someone who grew up with their drawings on the household refrigerator (brag) but who has, in the long years since, barely picked up a pencil, there is no better antidote to the assumption 'I would probably be even better at drawing now that I am an adult if I only tried' than trying to draw Sonic the Hedgehog on a laptop trackpad with a 60-second time limit.

This is the essential experience of playing Jackbox's t-shirt designing game Tee K.O., which we played yesterday. Kudos to Andy for rendering a passable Steamboat Willie. Passable and public domain. The dream!

Anyway, if you caught yesterday's Jackbox Tee K.O. 2 stream, you might care to peruse the fetching new collection of OX Original artworks (t-shirts) available LITERALLY NOW in the merch store. These are the best and most wearable shirts from the stream, and I for one cannot wait to rep Frankenstein on my Serious Literature tee.

Not only that but, after a long and sad absence, the iconic Andy Farrant Safety Beanie is back and safer than ever!

Members of the OX Supporters Club can get 10% off their purchases with promo code SAFEBEAN. [UPDATE: If you tried this code and it didn't work, you should find it works now. Apologies for the inconvenience and thank you for supporting the arts.]

Be well!
