Bill Struhar's Journal -- 2007

2006	Note:	Each of these comix will open an archived journal in a new browser window. Close the browser window to return here.
	On the Road	An experiment with simple animation. The animation seems to result in greater participation from the viewer. After messing at length with the timing, this comic seems to be moderately successful. The general concept has potential and I hope to try several more in the same vein.
	Driving Time	Asks a question about our frantic and often mindless routines. This comic provides an indirect comment on consumerism vs. intellectualism.
	Eggs	Inspired by the Spring equinox and Larrie Bird. This comic takes a shot at an easy target.
	Spy on Me	A comment on the politics of fear. The out of focus graphics could reflect the out of focus politics of our time.
	Bird College	Yes, Larrie Bird went to college. And so can you, no matter who you are. Is that a good thing?
	Big Dog and the Internet	The Internet was a radical innovation with the potential to really change things for the better, but along the way something went wrong ... many in power chose to protect their positions of privilege.
	Echo: Dark Thoughts	Echo speaks her mind. Take a lesson, will ya.
	Sleeping Dogs Lie	The old saying about sleeping dogs is adapted to modern times.

	Taboo Topix 1	This is primarily a 3D experiment to see if I could create a simple character in a 3D program and place it in a traditional comic layout.
	Haiku 1	Haiku courtesy of Jim Johnson. Jim sent me a haiku and said I should "art" with it. Trying to impress him with my promptness, I whipped up two versions of comix in about an hour.
	Haiku 2	Haiku courtesy of Jim Johnson. Version 2 (see above). Two weeks after first posting these haiku comix, I went back and cleaned up the sizing and spacing.
	MathMachines 1	Comix based on Math Machines, a program that helps teachers improve skills for math and science education.
	MathMachines 2	This and the one above begin to illustrate how these comix could be used for commercial purposes.
	The Meaning of Easter	Life, rebirth and the rituals of Spring. (Created in honor of Cliff and Amy's blue, plastic, Easter wreath.)
	Psychology: 100 Years Later	The story of failure.
	A Look at My Comix Process	I documented the early stages of a comix in process.
	Larrie Has a Bad Day	I don't know what got into that bird!
	Actual Thoughts May Vary	The difference between public statements and private thoughts.
	Mothers, Children, Ends, Means	We learned it as children. Mothers should know better.

	Artist's Model	My first attempt at comix, made from old studio sketches.
	Golf	The meaning of, or zen of, the game of golf.
	Shapes	Figure and ground and art.
	Today	An experiment with the color red.
	Grandpa's Back	Life at the beach.
	College	A guy and his spider.
	Life	Asking and answering several of the big questions.
	Death	Explaining the unexplainable.
	Not a Fish Story	A happy hour event in South Carolina.
	Grail	A dreamy, three-part epic.
