HBO Girls - A Tribute Season 1, Episode 3

All Adventurous Women Do...


HBO Girls--Endings, Beginnings, Tribute - Season 1, Episode 2

Tonight, in 15 minutes, the final show, the series finale, of Girls is going to air on HBO.

Back in January, I decided I would honor the show by making a drawing of each episode.  I couldn't, of course, include everything that happened within the episode on my page, but I could include the scenes/phrases/images that struck me the most.

Well, I only posted the first drawing of this undertaking.  I'm not sure why, probably because I have a lot of balls in the air, but now I find this last episode starting I haven't shared much with you.  I've drawn 17 shows.  I naively thought I could put together each show in a day, but it ended up being way more labor intensive.  I watched each episode quite a few times before I even decided what to put into my piece.  So, I'll begin with Season 1, Episode 2, and work my way forward.  Let's go!

Thanks for the incredible run HBO, Lena Dunham, Jenni Konner, Judd Apatow, Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke, Zosia Mamet, Adam Driver, Alex Karpovsky, Andrew Rannells, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach & so many more excellent actors!  You created something amazing, sustaining, & magical!


 Just as a reminder, here's how it started.

Goodbye HBO GIRLS

I'm pretty bummed that HBO's series, Girls, will be ending soon.  The final season begins next month, and in anticipation of that bittersweet event, I've decided to do a drawing of each episode.  It's my way of honoring Lena Dunham and Judd Apatow's witty, biting, touching creation.  I'm just going to put down my favorite parts, because, you know, my sheet of paper is only so big!

Day 75. Fiona Apple Loves Caramel Apples

Fiona Apple loves caramel apples. 

Why?  Well, because of two things swirled together.

1)  At the beginning of "American Splendor" some lady tries to give a young Harvey Pekar a caramel apple as a Halloween treat, and

2) My favorite line in "Girls" from Season 2, Episode 5--"One Man's Trash".  Hannah tells Joshua of a quote she read about Fiona Apple in New York magazine and how she relates to it.  Apple says, “Everyone acts like I’m nuts.  I’m not nuts.  I just wanna feel it all.”
