Siteway

I feel like I'm saying "wow" a lot; in my head and in actual life. This is not such a bad thing, when you think about it. From my long and substantial conversations with many close people, I've basically learned 90% of what I know about life. That's a lot. One of those things I've learned is that everyone goes through tough times. Basic, right? But think about this fact: it's not only meaningful. It's as meaningful as it is obvious. This is extremely rare. For example: this doesn't happen in art. It doesn't happen in markets. It happens only when it comes to the purely existential. One must have ups and downs. More on this later. ¶ I think the basic job of a person is to exercise empathy. I also think it's the basic job of the world to be blissfully ignorant of this aspiration. The result, of course, is what happens after the director yells 'Action'—it's what happens. ¶ I've been having a good week. So many things are fucked up in the world; it's nice to see how goodness can be carved from it. It's important. ¶ I hope everyone is having a great Autumn.

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.
