I drew this quick sketch after my boyfriend - currently sailing around South America on the USS Iwo Jima - described his evening corralling drunk marines in a Columbian brothel. It got printed out and put up in the ship's break room.

An introduction!

The Ctrl-Zs are a collective of friends and artists who all work in the Flash Animation industry.

Organized by Daisy Church of Girls Drawin Girls, Daisy felt it was time to put together a group of like-minded artists to help promote each other and market their talents in both traditional art and in digital animation.

The mission of The Ctrl-Zs is to help market, promote and motivate a group of professional peers and friends into creating more personal art and animated projects. Our blend of both digital and traditional art is reflected by our name, which is a joke on how digital artists often reach for a phantom "ctrl-Z" (the "undo" function on a computer) when drawing with traditional pencil and paper.
