  • Beep-a-beep-beep, Yeah!!!!

    Beep-a-beep-beep, Yeah!!!!

    More Beetlemania. I was trying to come up with a title for this, and all l could think of was: beep-a-beep-beep, yeah! I just couldn’t remember where I had heard that. Of course, that’s a line from the Beatle’s “Baby, You Can Drive My Car”. I was going to title this “Relic in the Driveway”,…

  • Rememember When?

    Rememember When?

    Okay, here’s another work-in-progress, but only a tiny corner that I found interesting. Then when I looked closer, I saw something that looked familiar to me. For those of us who took standardized tests in elementary school, and the SATs too, the little ovals made me think of the ovals we filled in on those…

  • Quick

    Quick

    Did a revision to “Day is Done”. I guess what I thought……minimalist, less is more, and all that…. Woke up in the morning, had some coffee, and realized I had missed the mark. Fortunately, I didn’t make a big enough boo-boo to ruin the drawing…. So, as things are going, I may take a look…

  • I’m Tired

    I’m Tired

    Am I tired? You betcha. Synapses barely firing. I don’t know why. The weather maybe. Don’t know, but I’m tired. Everybody goes through this I know. Anyway, while I’m tired, I have to make a monumental, earth shattering decision. Okay, not exactly earth shattering, but doesn’t any decision feel that way when you’re tired? I…

  • Let’s Be Realistic

    Let’s Be Realistic

    So, I’ve been diddling and doodling around with these drawings, so far, try to get the perfect balance of realistic drawing and fanciful design. I redid 101.  Having done the one that was mostly a half-hearted try at a good realism, I decided to have a little fun instead.   Here’s the redo, of 101. These…

  • 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…

  • Get Out the Tanning Butter!

    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,…

  • Summer Vacation

    I’m going to have to take a break from artwork for a while.  I have ideas, but all of them contain lots and lots of foliage.  You know what?  I’m sick to death of drawing lots and lots of foliage, and I’ve also about run out of green pencils.  So, until I either come up…

  • I Should Know Better.

    Sunday morning seems to be the worst time for publishing a blog post.  So, here I am, and raring to go.  Maybe my readers are still sleeping, or worshiping, or maybe going to a pleasant brunch! So… I finished the strawberry note card last night.  I’m trying to decide whether it would make a good,…
