The Only Weapon Left Is Art
10 posts
The Only Weapon Left Is Art is a Brooklyn/France based blog formed by Adam Melendez & Lisa Poloski. Amateur artists/cartoonists as we are, we have a need to nourish our technique whenever possible but above all, to give our art a reason, a purpose. Therefore, feel free to request anything you'd like to see drawn (don't be weird) and one of us will take care of it. We do this for us and for you. This ought to be a fun journey. We wonder where this will lead us to. But for the time being lets enjoy being creative. Thanks for reading. - Adam M. & Lisa P.

While looking at pictures taken at FMLY Fest Brooklyn, I came across this one picture capturing one of the most beautiful moments I've ever experienced due to the power of pure love and passion for art/music. This happened under the rain during Yohuna's (Johanne Swanson) amazing set. Everyone gathered around her and her gear, holding up Noah Klein Cuddle Formation's parachute to protect her gear from the rain as she played her lovely songs. This moment was definitely one of the highlights of FMLY Fest Brooklyn (if not The Highlight). To see how the passion and love for art/music inspired this strong sense of community amongst each of one of us that were there, was truly a gift. Nowadays it is very rare to see that which is why this was truly a beautiful inspiring experience. So I decided to send Lisa this picture along with other ones (who is all the way in France) to share what a beautiful experience that weekend had been for me. And this is what she did with that picture.. She drew it!!! I'm still and will always be perplexed at how amazing this drawing came out. She is incredibly talented! I hope all of you enjoy it! :) - Adam M.

I was spending some time with family at my aunts place (Staten Island) about a week ago.. We were gathered in the patio.. As I looked around, I couldn't help but find the angle captured in this drawing fascinating.. It stood out to me because it seemed out of place.. Just staring into that portion of the whole scenery gave the entire place a different feel.. Of course who better than Lisa to take care of this drawing?.. I'm jealous of her talent.. Enjoy!

About a month ago I made an unofficial contract with Erin Fein (Psychic Twin) to sketch anything she wanted to see drawn.. Her first request was a Pegasus (which I will post up later).. My personal favorite of her requests was this Owl.. Enjoy!
* Listen to Psychic Twin here: psychictwin.bandcamp.com & check out her BreakThruRadio Live Session here at: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gEzbJJlDVMY * Enjoy!!!

I went on a fifth grade Senior Class trip as a teacher's assistant this past Friday.. We were to board a cruise that would go around the city (Manhattan) at Chelsea Piers.. In any case, in waiting to board the cruise I took a picture of the cruise and posted it up on twitter requesting Lisa to sketch it.. This is the final product :)
