  • What’s in the Box

    What’s in the Box

    So, as I have the time, I’ve been plodding along, a snail’s pace, slowly, working on my notecards.  Once again, I’m feeling in a level mood, I can concentrate, and not everything looks bad.  My wrist is becoming more flexible finally.  Spring is off to a good start.  So, here are recent additions to the…

  • Kill Them All!

    Kill Them All!

    and let God sort them out later.  Was that from a spaghetti western or a WWII flick?  I know it was a from a movie, or at least, I sure, sure hope that was from a movie.  Unfortunately, in this day, it sounds just horribly like something that would happen in real life. But that…

  • I’m Up For a Challenge

    I’m Up For a Challenge

    I honestly thought this would be easy.  I should have known better.  Making note cards with a drawing on them that people would like, and buy.  It’s a challenge, but I’m stubborn.  In fact I’m thinking of getting a tatoo that says that.  “I’m Stubborn” So, another day, another learning curve. This is a small…

  • Kind of a Drag….

    Kind of a Drag….

    No!  Not that kind of drag. It’s a drag trying to draw with a brace on your right hand. I can’t do the subtleties I’m used to. It’s all coming out a lot sketchier than I like. It looks like a good style of loose drawing, but it’s not mine.  However, in time, I shall…

  • Not for Sale

    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

    I, Me, Mine

    The portrait above is me, a few years back.  I’m not really into doing self portraits.  Why would I want to do that, when there are so many more interesting and beautiful subjects to be drawn?

  • Alas

    Alas

    One of my friends calls this the “Psycho House”. I guess I can understand that. Maybe,you can see Norman Bates’ mother in the attic.  That was not the intention of the drawing.  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!

    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…
