<p>This drawing is selfconscious of its future existence online. </p>
<p>When I make a drawing, I know that I will scan it and post it on the web. I know that vertical pieces work better on the blog than rectangular ones. I want the text ot be legible on your screen, so I adjust it on paper accordingly. All of these things affect what I make, yet I am still making a physical (offline) object. I haven't (yet) succumbed to creating my works digitally. </p>
<p>Most artwork is experienced on a screen now. Thanks to the internet, we can see way more art than ever before, but I'll bet we spend less time in galleries than ever before (I hope I'm wrong about that). And I wonder how much artists are changing what they make, knowing that their work will be viewed mostly online rather than in person.</p>

<p><strong>Who:</strong> Xiao (sent to me about a year ago)</p>
<p><strong>From:</strong> California</p>
<p><strong>A tattoo based on:</strong> <em><a href="http://www.marcjohns.com/blog/jeffrey-was-fed-up.html" target="_self">Jeffrey was fed up</a></em></p>
<p><strong>The story:</strong> "I came across your artworks for the first time 1 week ago, and instantly fell in love with many of them. 'Jeffrey was fed up' in particular caught my eye. I love the message behind it. As a result, I decided to get a tattoo based on this piece and had it done yesterday (woohoo!)" </p>
<p>Looks fantastic, Xiao! </p>
<p>By the way, you don't need my permission to have one of my drawings tattooed. All I ask is that you please support my work by buying something from <a href="http://shop.marcjohns.com/" target="_blank">my art shop</a> or from <a href="http://society6.com/marcjohns" target="_blank">my Society6 shop</a>. Thanks!</p>
<p>See <a href="http://www.marcjohns.com/blog/tattoo/" title="more tattoos of my drawings">more tattoos</a>. If you've got a tattoo of one of my drawings, send it along! Email me at marcjohns [at] gmail [dot] com.</p>

<p>I often think about moving to the country, or to a small island, to get away from the noise and and the chatter and the busy-ness of the world. But I think a great deal of the noise in our lives is self-imposed. All the chatter on Facebook and the deluge of images on Instagram and Pinterest is noisy and overwhelming after a while, but we can't seem to help ourselves. No need to move to the country to get away though - the solution is as simple as turning off our screens for a bit and spend a little time with our own thoughts (instead of in everybody else's).</p>
