Drawing Shop Launched
Posted by – February 27, 2011
A quiet Sunday opening. The rain has just started even. But Lisa Gornick’s Drawing Shop is easing itself into existence. Some people have requested purchasing my drawings and I would love them to live in other places and have lives outside of me. So take a look at my new site. In the drawing shop, I give a bit of personal insight around what I was thinking when I drew the work and also give dates and sizes. And let me know what you think, I’d love feedback.

doing a talk about my drawings and by the way here’s some porn
Posted by – November 24, 2010
i’m doing a talk on my drawings at ladyzdocomics on monday 29th november at 6.30
address:
The Rag Factory
16-18 Heneage Street, London E1 5LJ
(it’s off brick lane)
there’s a money cost of £1.50 to listen to me and some other artist-cartoonists talk and show
and here’s some film drawings i did about five years ago when i was thinking of making a porn comedy and never got up the nerve. this is how i tend to write films, start with sketches and then build characters and dialogues from them.
having the feel of a french film
Posted by – November 11, 2010
I am directing two short dramas – and I imbue them with as much of what I feel a French film is. Maybe I have a fantasy of talking in a French accent. Or it’s the eyes of the actors. The sensuality. The pace. They are set in a hospital and a care home – but still I want this filmic beauty.

A French take on the British crime drama. (I’ve always wanted to make a French film and they let me – salute to the producers, crew and cast – and of course Channel 4). Watch this blog for more from the storyboard.

shooting this week
Posted by – February 24, 2010
I am film drawing intensely whilst I shoot – Dip – and have to say film drawing works – so much so that the scanner is far from my finger tips and the drawings themselves are getting roughed up in my back pocket. Shoot finishes this friday and then I’m intrigued to see if drawings and film match. Or just spoke to each other in my head.
