Gallery Update: The Moleskin Awakens!
Hi! Yes, I'm still alive. I don't know why I need to keep reassuring everyone of that. Why is everyone expecting me to be dead? Maybe you just like the sense of elation you feel when you realize I'm still breathing and working towards my Artistic Destiny (TM)? Whatever it is, I'm still here. Now that the kids are back in school and all on the same bus schedule (gone are the days of 3+ bus stops a day for me. I drop them off at the bus stop at 6:30am, they walk home after getting off the bus in
Gallery Update: I’m Baaaack
Hello! I'm back from my two weeks in the woods wrangling Cub and Boy Scouts! It was a great experience (and with the week at Cub Scout camp being my fifth and final, it was a bit emotional), but very draining. I'm still trying to get back into the swing of things and remember what the heck I was doing before I left. In the meantime, I thought it best to catch up on some posting while my brain sorts itself out. Waaaaaaaay back at the end of June, my youngest son finished out his last days in our little
Update: I’m Alive
Yes indeed, I'm not dead! Yet! (I feel happy...) It's been far too long since I've updated, and almost as long since I've had consistent studio time. I spent almost all of June plowing through some house renovations (some of which have been on the "to do" list for 11 years, so it was about time anyway) that needed to be done before we hosted my wife's family for a reunion the first week of July. Between that and scout responsibilities, the studio time sadly gave way first. However, the family have returned to their respective parts of the country,
Gallery Update: Two People in the Hand is Worth…Um…
Look at that! Two weeks in a row! I'm surprising myself given how strapped for time and generally overwhelmed I am these days. I've been keeping busy in the studio as well as on the tablet at night (which might be leading to even more projects for my never ending list, which I'll talk about here in the near future). I had to divert from 10 Things again, this time to focus on tshirt designs for both the Boy Scout Troop (the one that I'm now Scoutmaster of) and the Cub Scout summer camp shirts (my last one! I'm struggling with
Gallery Update: Happy 2 Days After Mother’s Day 2017!
Well, hello there! Yes indeed, I am still alive! I realize it has been quite a while since the last site update, but if you've been following me on FB or Instagram, you know that although I've been extremely busy, I haven't been absent from the studio. Not completely, anyway. I'm even further behind on things I wanted to post about, so some of those ideas might just get canned (they probably weren't all that interesting to begin with). There have been a lot of developments in my art life, as well as real life, but before I get into some
Tablet Art: Smile For The Camera
Right. So, once again, there's been a gap in posting. There's been a gap in studioing, too (yes, I'm making that a verb). I had to spend a week performing my civic duty by serving on a jury in a particularly disturbing trial. If not for the subject matter, the whole experience was actually kind of interesting and rewarding. I have a new found understanding of and respect for the concept of a jury of one's peers. I'm glad to be back in the studio, though. The first tablet drawing I did (a few weeks ago, now), after finishing up
Please let me know what you think, it makes my brain happy.
