First post!!!



hello! If you’ve stumbled apon this website and have no idea what this is about, I’m basically going to be challenging myself to draw fanart for the rock band They Might Be Giants (TMBG, if you will) until they release a new album. That’s it.

If you don’t know who I am, my name is Audrey/Polygawn!! I’m a young artist who’s been hyperfixating on TMBG for the latter half of 2023, and I’ve decided to throw all the art here on blog spot as apposed to YouTube or whatever!! It’s not ideal but I really like the oldish internet vibes of it lol

But. About the challenge. The ground rules are that I have to draw something, ANYTHING related to TMBG every single week. I can draw anything in advance if I want too, and I can use any medium. (Digital, traditional, heck I might even crochet something-). I’m planning on posting the art every Tuesday!!!

Also, as a small side note…the main reason I wanna do this is because I have ADHD, and my brain tends to jump around from big project to big project a lot. I want to find something that isn’t too hard, but still something I can stick with and have fun with!! At the bare minimum all I gotta do is scribble up a tiny linnell or flans and then be done, but if I wanna make something special than I can spend a whole week working on something!! I wanna prove that, even though I have a weird neurological disorder that hinders me from focusing on things for too long, I CAN DO THIS!!


Because I don’t trust myself enough, I won’t be submitting the blog to TMBGareOK until a month has past. I could end up forgetting about this…but I BELIVE IN MYSELFFF


Examples of my TMBG art from newest to old (I am very embarrassed by my old TMBG art so pleeeeease ignore it!!!!!!)







aaaaand everything else I’ve made is pretty bad so that’s all I’ll share! See ya on Tuesday lol

“HATSUNE MIKU?? HAVE YOU COME TO PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY???” This originally wasn’t supposed to be for the challenge but I thought “yeah I don’t really have a plan for next week, I’ll just throw this doodle in” so yeah! For some context: I’ve been (well, used to be?) making vocaloid covers of TMBG songs with Hatsune Miku in the spot of Flans and Kagamine Rin in the spot of Linnell…for the video covers, I’ve been drawing the mascots as the johns!!! I present to you, my accursed creation in her full redesigned glory: Flansune Miku. And yes there’s a Kagamine Rinnell, I just haven’t gotten around to fully redesigning her yet (here’s my latest doodle of her) but back to Meeks…there’s not much to say about her personality other than she’s just Miku but John Flansburgh-ified!! vocaloids have no canon personalities, so I just like to think of her and Rinnell as super one dimensional and exaggerated versions of the Johns…also they don’t get along very well!! They’re kinda like 2 siblings who b

Hello!! It’s finally time to start this challenge…I haven’t talked about this at all on any of my social medias, but yes!! I’m drawing TMBG fanart every week!! Please see my first post for context :) I was planning on starting work on this drawing a week in advance, but I couldn’t really decide on what to draw…whenever you make a “first” of something it has to be pretty basic, I can’t do anything TOO fancy!! But then again I can’t do anything too simple… Usually when I think of the Johns, I imagine John F being the typa guy to put his Christmas tree on November 1st and always get super festive whenever the holidays come around, and John L just going along with whatever Christmas festivities there are (but secretly just wanting to go home). So this is just a simple, goofy drawing of John F anxiously waiting for 2024 while John L sleeps it all off- I think the composition could be a lil bit better, and I’m still struggling with dynamic poses, but I’m happy with this for now!! It doesn’t
