Siteway
 

Wednesday, October 31, 2007

It's fashionable but I don't mind saying I'm a sucker for the last man on earth story. Even the empty New York sequences in Vanilla Sky were somehow thrilling, if only in dreams. I'm looking forward to seeing I Am Legend this holiday season. It's a version of 1971's Omega Man (both screenplays are based on Richard Matheson's novel, I Am Legend). The last man is the lone man, the first man. The Robinson Crusoe story writ large. ¶ Why don't you be like your friend Henry here. He's got a nice girl. He's settling down now. He's married. Pretty soon he'll have a nice family. And you're still bouncing around from girl to girl.—Tommy's Mother, GoodFellas. ¶ I think the pleasures of living in Toronto outweigh the pains. For me, for now, I'd rather be nowhere else. I love seeing store owners sweeping their front stoop, green grocer's sneaking a quick smoke, and FedEx drivers jumping in and out of their trucks. I walk through Kensington Market almost every day these days. Maybe I'll tire of it, but so far, I still get my kicks. The city can be summarized thusly: proximity to life; access to markets; accelerating movement. If we all struggle, then at least in the city, you don't struggle alone.

Siteway was launched in 1996. It is Antony Hare's personal web site and is affiliated only with him. It contains his gallery of illustrations and blog since 2000. His illustrations are available for sale and for licensing in film and advertising. Siteway World is Siteway, Phelts, Tonicville, and Coastalmatic. Siteway used to be updated every week, usually Tuesday, with a new feature illustration. I am currently working on the all-new Siteway so illustration updates here will be sporatic until December 2008.
