One Cool Thing 7-28-2020 Paper Towel Art

Today is a little unique. It features paper towel art of Christopher J Garcia . He is a very well known member of the fandom community, a prominent maker of fanzines and other works. He won the Hugo for best Fanzine in 2011. So it’s safe to say he’s known for writing.

Sometime during the pandemic he started posting these Paper Towel Art pieces on his facebook and instagram. At first it is easy to slide right down your feed and say hey pretty, but with the consistency of output and the the actual work continuing you have to pause and admire what he is creating. I like that its a creative output being documented and some of them just shine with other stories. I see Avengers. I see Xmen. I see space and hope, and joy.

Anyway, if you want to check out his works you’ll need to see his facebook feed or Instagram and enjoy some paper towel art colors.
