new week

April 28th, 2008 · No Comments

Getting some paperwork and errands done (post office, art store) today. This week is already much improved from last week. Soon I’ll have time to finish up all my almost completed drawings and paintings like Fred here. I’m painting his portrait in egg tempera. Why? because I have some extra eggs in the fridge and […]

Sweet!

April 24th, 2008 · No Comments

Besides painting overly excited food containers I did remember that it was Earth Day/Pennsylvania Primary day, and did work on some political portraits. Hopefully everyone in PA voted that day!

Hill and Barack are BFFs. The news media just doesn’t know it. President and Vice President or Vice President and President? perhaps…

and Johnny.
I am working on […]

“Plan to be surprised.”

April 21st, 2008 · No Comments

A line read by Steve Carrell in the movie ‘Dan in Real Life’. It was surprisingly good. Surprisingly, because I hadn’t heard too much about it but Steve and Juliette and um… I forget his name but the guy who played Frasier’s dad on that tv show were all in it so I thought why […]

birthday’s eve

What does one do a few hours before they officially become a year older?
Break the 10,000 point barrier (a bell triumphantly dings when you do) while playing the video game* Miss Pac-Man.

My highest score may have been higher than 10,000. Perhaps 13,940? I wasn’t counting or anything.
*I did read today and went outside for some […]

drawings and doodles, but no words

April 8th, 2008 · No Comments

well, maybe a few.

…notice the random little dog drawing in the image above that seeped through from the following page. I was going to erase that part in photoshop but that would defeat the purpose of a doodle in a sketchbook.
Nothing’s perfect.
That’s the way it should be.

In disguise

April 7th, 2008 · No Comments

Meet the super undercover secret agent bunnies on assignment.
They’re wearing their new disguises. Pretty cool huh? They like to think so.
Unfortunately their nemesis ‘zapatos verdes’ (aka ‘green shoes’) is on their trail and is about to botch their mission with a photograph of the crime fighting pair!
No worries though, in case you were.
The agents soon […]

Darjeeling…

April 5th, 2008 · No Comments

Not the tea, but the movie.

Some photos of my painting area. Nothing like painting at night when all is quiet except for my movie/music/podcast/audio book (it varies depending on my mood) playing in the background. My  trusty brushes gathered in my hip owl container. I’ve owned it for over 10 years but owls are supercool […]

still here

April 5th, 2008 · No Comments

It’s been awhile. That ‘deep thoughts’ quote has been here as the last post for a few days. I have not been in any existential angst. Just ignoring this journal. It will resume being a drawing/painting/pretty photo filled space very soon.
Here are a few ‘placeholder’ doodles inspired by a certain president. Can you guess?

Work will […]
