This is not my Photograph
Fabulous Photo I found this on Google Earth, and it’s credited to Jan Prosek. I’ve been trying to seek out a website or a link to his work, to give him proper credit. It’s fantastic. I have artist envy. I also wish I could find a way to paste the image in, rather just link…

Making Progress
It’s Imbolc for Pagans, and Groundhog day for the rest. It’s the day that early signs of spring are celebrated..the beginning of the end of the long winter. My cast is off, and I’m on to physical therapy. I can nearly write, which means I can nearly draw. I’m typing normally again, in other words…badly.…

Not for Sale
My wrist is getting better, and I am savoring (More like salivating over) the prospect doing artwork again. Yes, in a little more than a week, my cast will be off. A little physical therapy, and I’ll be good to go. After that announcement, I want to know…are you tired of blogs (including mine), trying…

I, Me, Mine

Get Out the Tanning Butter!
The title happens to be from the song “Rock Lobster”, by the B-52s. Strangely enough, that happens to be Our Song. Yes, that’s the romantic tune to which my partner and I bonded, on our first date. Most importantly, it was the Labor Day weekend, the last of the lazy, hazy days of summer. Ah,…

The idea was the house’s windows were reflecting the dawn’s rosy colors. I always think of Psycho, now. Or an episode of the…

Happy End of the Holidays!
Okay, finally….life is back to normal. I have a little ritual in winter, as the days grow longer. First off is Yule, then Christmas, New Years, and then January 2nd. Here’s the drawing that I made in celebration of t hat celebration. The ritual includes such things as The Superbowl, and Mardi Gras. And of…

The Worst is Yet to Come
I have a tradition, on New Years, to post the worst picture of the previous year. It helps me keep my sense of humor, and a sense of humility. So, here goes, the worst of 2018! I actually only did two pictures in 2018, due to my stubborn artist’s block. Therefore, the worst isn’t as…

Starting All Over, Again, Again
Can You Draw a Bicycle? I thought this article was pretty amusing. Of course, drawing from imagination is a challenge. Most of my life I’ve used photos or life as reference, but now I start out on a new quest (self-indulgence is great). I’m drawing from imagination. Pertinent to this is drawing a bicycle from…
