Simpsons Art: Double Feature!

Here is a collection of two Simpsons related artworks I've made very recently! As you can see, I'm not too strict in being accurate with the show's art style.

The first one is called Homie Vibing to Fire A$$ Beats!

This one was screenshot redraw from a classic Season 5 episodes but with a more musical twist. I wanted to have another excuse to redraw and color in a screenshot using three colored pencils.

The second is a rough sketch of Mayor Quimby.

Guess who got a-b honor rolllll guys who’s proud heheh

I iako je nemoguće, ti kao da osjetiš bol.

Razmišljaš da li im se sjećaš glasa, pa te uhvati strah od pomisli da si ga zaboravila.

Bude teže da samu sebe regulišeš rečenicom: srešćemo se opet, vjerovatno su u drugoj dimenziji.

Jer kao da ne vjeruješ u to, nego samo sebe lažeš da bi ti dani lakše prolazili.

Možda je lakše da gubimo ljude dok smo djeca, nesvjesni težine.

Kad smo odrasli, sve nam ima neku bitnost. Pogotovo jer znamo da i mi staramo i idemo ka neizbježnom dijelu života, a to je smrt.

Volim kad posle tone pornićarskih reblogova, odjednom dotaknem vašu dušu. I ostavim vas da razmišljate o prolaznosti života, o tome kako ne treba da shvatamo ljudska bića zdravo za gotovo, jer se neka možda samo sjutradan više i ne probude. Napuste tijelo astronautsko odijelo i odlete u nebesko carstvo (čitaj: Univerzum).

The pictures are from a lecture on urinary incontinence and fascial restriction. Mesh is an imperfect solution. If it does not migrate, it does not solve the incontinence issue over 50% of the time. Kegels, which are still the standard recommendation, do not solve the underlying cause. Manual therapy has been shown to be the best treatment. But, medically they continue to suggest drugs, surgery, and kegels.

This entire Fascial Congress conference has been so validating for everything we teach in SMRT classes and everything we do as SMRT therapists. Throughout my 30 years, I have consistently heard from female clients and students that the external work we do with SMRT stopped their leaking, gave them more bladder control, gave them more confidence, and gave them their life back.

This particular speaker said that she finds that the issue in the pelvis is most often coming from the lower leg and foot because of fascial connections. I cannot explain to you how many times I have said this! As MTs, we want hips classes, but if you truly want to balance the hips, work the lower legs and feet! It reminds me of a therapist in a lower extremities class I was teaching in Maryland years ago. The lower leg SMRT work coupled with the thigh SMRT work stopped a leaking problem she had had for 25 years since giving birth to her son.

I am typically quiet about the extent of what we can do with SMRT. But, right now I want to scream it from the rooftops. We, all of us who use SMRT, have helped so many people with this amazing modality that changes fascia, muscle, joint alignment, and autonomic nervous system balance. And, the speakers, manual therapists, researchers, and doctors here speak what I have known for decades and validate the work I have been doing and teaching for decades. It feels fantastic!

Muško mentalno zdravlje,

Zabranjena tema,

Za mnoge,

Počevši od mene,

I moga oca,

Koji je plakao,

Onog dana,

Kada sam mu rekao,

Kada se neko ubije onda se svi pitaju,

Zašto se nije nikome obratio,

Veći strah u očima u životu nisam vidio.

I dan danas žalim te riječi,

Jer svaki njegov pogled,

Kada me gleda dok pušim cigaretu,

Ispunjen je strahom...

Dugo vremena sam razmišljao,

O tome kako bi bilo da odem,

Jer ja,

Nemam kome da pričam o tome kako sam,

Potiskujem emocije,

Kao i većina muškaraca,

I svoje traume i rane liječim,

Kroz alkohol i cigarete.

Smršao sam deset kila,

Ali dobro sam,

Nemam vremena da razmišljam o depresiji,

Jer ipak,

To bješe šala mnogima,

I zajebancija koju niko ne shvaća ozbiljno,

Jer baš tako,

Ni ja nisam shvatio zašto je alkohol rješenje,

Do onog dana kada su mi javili,

Da je čovjek,

Koji me je odgojio,

Borio se sa demonima,

Za koje ja nisam mogao ni zamisliti da postoje,

I tako to bješe,

Kroz osmijeh i veselje,

Odluči oduzeti sebi život,

U nadi da će pronaći mir,

Koji na ovoj zemlji nije mogao naći...

Ali po riječima mnogih,

To je izlaz koji koriste samo kukavice,

I naravno ja ga ne krivim,

Čak ga i razumijem zašto je to uradio,

Plakao sam,

Ne mogu reći danima,

Jer evo plačem već četvrtu godinu otkako ga nema,

Ali dobro družimo se,

Kada mogu uzmem nam po pivo,

I kutiju cigareta,

I sjedim na njegovom grobu,

I pričam mu o svemu što se događa otkako je otišao.

Molim vas,

Nemojte ići,

Ako vaše vrijeme nije,

To nije rješenje,

Ja sam mu oprostio,

A i ako ga ima nadam se i da je Bog oprost mu dao,

Plačite,

Vrištite,

Smijte se,

Zovite,

Volite,

Pričajte,

Molim vas,

Ostanite ovdje s nama,

Naći ćemo rješenje,

Zajedno ako treba,

Budite jaki,

I pustite suzu kada je teško,

Plakati je zdravo,

I pričajte s voljenim ljudima,

Pitajte kako su,

Onako iskreno a ne iz čistog bontona,

Puno ljubavi šaljem svim muškarcima koji prolaze kroz teške trenutke,

Vidim vas,
