SMURF

Been seeing SMURF around the North side of the city since early this year. Its the only character tag I have consistently seen. What do I know about SMURF? Jack. Nada. Zip. Zilch. I can tell SMURF practices. A lot. I imagine there are stacks of notebooks out there somewhere on the far North side in some shitty studio, overlooking a liquor store and adult book shop, where SMURF scribbles his/her character over and over. Again and again. Doing it backwards, flipping the page upside down. Drawing it with his/her eyes closed. I see an evolution in this character. I see it becoming more solid. The fill ins are tight. Perhaps an entire SMURF village is forthcoming. I can only dream.
