"An Accident Turned Art" / 5 Strangely Sketches + Dad Jokes
This unique sketch series was born from an unexpected moment during the power outage caused by hurricane Beryl's ice freeze storm. As darkness enveloped the surroundings, Strangely, a closet comedian with a penchant for one-liners, decided to combine art and humor by candlelight.
The sketches, drawn on cut-up printer paper, took an unintended turn when they accidentally caught fire from being held too close to the candle. Instead of discarding the singed pieces, Strangely embraced the mishap, transforming it into a distinctive artistic element.
Each piece in this collection features original sketches drawn by candlelight. Four of the sketches are accompanied by cheesy dad jokes and one-liners written in Strangely's signature style, while one piece, a charming scarecrow, stands as a poignant addition to the series, created in the same moment but without a joke. The unique burn patterns from the accidental fire add character and depth, making each piece truly one-of-a-kind.
The result is a collection that not only showcases Strangely's quirky humor and artistic style but also serves as a tangible memento of a peculiar moment in their life. These pieces blend comedy, visual art, and the unpredictability of life, creating a truly original and memorable collection.
The burnt edges and smoke-tinged paper add an authentic, rustic charm to each sketch, while the handwritten jokes provide a personal touch that connects the viewer to the artist's wit and creativity. This series stands as a testament to Strangely's ability to find humor and inspiration in unexpected circumstances, turning a potential disaster into a unique form of artistic expression.
