Encore! Day Two
2006-2007-My Don Martin Phase |
Don would have fired me. I had fun. So there.

We see this a lot at our house
Supper time, is it? |

The first snowfall...
Somebody oughtta put a stop to this! |
Some kids I know have been looking forward with glee to the first snow fall and we have it today. I too have looked forward to the first snow fall....with a sense of dread.

Easy as pie for whom?
"I wouldn't say the 'greatest of ease'..." |
Since Plato (likely before him) the notion of "techne" has applied to our roles in life. We find the thing(s) we are "good at" and perhaps like to do and we do them. Others remind us that there are things that need to be done. Can any of that be truly easy all the time? Maybe it only looks that way.

They're just doodles, right?
This guy or some variant shows up a lot in the sketch books. He's just fun to draw, I guess. Jungians and perhaps others might say I'm projecting from the unconscious....or perhaps I'm working out something about archetypes....anyway.

Keeps the chill off

Thinking of our friends whose special friend Holly has traveled to the "rainbow bridge".

Lost? Found? Discovering? Something else?
Happy Thanksgiving. Or Columbus Day. Or Monday. Funny how we sometimes make things we've done by accident seem intentional. Funny how we make things we've done intentionally "an accident".
If you like the use of color I meant to do that. If you don't it was an accident. Either way I had fun.

Angst...and a sharpie
What if I'm just drawing the same thing over and over a million times for the last forty years???? |
So I'm considering two things...One: ditch the sketch books that are only collecting dust and taking up space. Two: learn (somehow or tuther) to draw other stuff too.

Yay, it's Friday
Just for laughs |
The blog approaches its one year birthday and I'm wondering about directions it can or perhaps "ought" to go. Part of this deliberation will include revisiting why I started blogging in the first place. Then I can asses outcomes I'm seeing that might connect to those reasons. Sounds pretty clinical, eh?

Sharpie Week-Day Two
Monday 7 October 2013
Sorry Pat, I might have bought the wrong vowel
The Cassocks are coming, the Cassocks are coming! |
Today's work was intentionally scrawled in less than a minute to see if I could 'evoke' something. That and I'm a slacker. I enjoyed using a bolder point sharpie---they do kind of bleed through anything lighter than bristol board it seems.
Have a day.

Shutdown Throwdown...what's the lowdown?
It's in the best interest of the American people that I sleep in today |
You remember the TV show Malcolm in the Middle? There was a teaser for the show that includes Lois yelling out about her family situation "What's the matter with you people?" I'd like to send Lois to Washington DC. Maybe we could just sit the politicians and lobbyists down and play that bit of video.
I think Lois' voice would be drowned out by the moneyed special interest groups calling the shots while the "elected officials" put on their Punch and Judy show as a way to pander to them. There I said it.
