Figure Sticks

these were a fun bit of doin'. me in my cramped little space. done on comic book backing boards. clipped to a portable drawing board. placed on an easel. scribbled with ink n' brush.

just fast, furious and impulsive.

i freed a ladybug today that had been flitting about my room for the past couple of days. couldn't keep track of the little sheit until said bug landed on my comp monitor while i was computin'. grabbed Lbug up, opened up my window and let fly.

i hope it remembers me someday.

Hot Coals!

there's a garish splash O' color to fuel the day.

in other art news...the new al columbia book PIM & FRANCIE was a-boughtin' by me (and hopefully many others) today. wow! what a pervasive sense of dread and creep columbia has at his command. the book is a collection of bits and pieces doodles and drawings he has done over the last few years or so. columbia is so elusive that i am now afraid that we'll never see anything from this guy again. which would be a tremendous shame. i have long been an admirer of al's. now i want more. greedy me. here's hopin' we see more of his work soon.

"victims"

i am a bookaholic. no doubt about it. love books. therefore it is not uncommon to see me at the local Borders book store(s). i'm one of the many regulars.

but aside from prowling the book aisles, bookstores are also great for people watching. which leads to sketching. a few of my "victims" up above.

model no show fo sho!

finally found a group that does semi-regular modeling sessions. i am now a member of said group. i went to my first "official" model doodling session the other night. problem was...the model never showed. so one of the group volunteered to sit. posted the result.

i'm not really trying to capture an exact likeness. i just have a blast playing with line, form and exaggerated color etc. as one can tell by the blistering bright blush of her cheeks.

we also listened to barry white while "art-ing". it was sezzy.

a partiality or preference (for)

Maybe I didnt treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didnt love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasnt died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Maybe I didnt hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
Im so happy that youre mine
If I make you feel second best
Girl, Im sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasnt died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

tech-NO-lodgee

had a big ol' humdinger of a comp crash a couple of weeks ago. took some doin' to get things up and running again. i.e. basically getting the computer rebuilt. and even THAT came down to trial and error. fun was had by all. ANYway............
