In an ongoing series.  Dissecting famous works of art.


the failings of social media

Last night, Kyle got out an hour early from a math review.  I didn't think I had to pick him up for another hour, so I was watching hulu, far away from my phone's quiet ringtone.  
But he, being an ingenious boy, knew other ways to reach me.

twitter.
gmail.
 linkedin lol.
 fbook.


Jon's right. It doesn't.  I went to pick him up because I heard my phone during a commercial break.

Day 6 - Favorite Book Character

My 30 day drawing challenge is turning more into a 30 week challenge. 

This is a rough of Charlotte Doyle, from the book The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle.  
Basically, she lives through a mutiny on board the ship by becoming one of the crew.  And then at the end, she chooses to stay with the crew instead of going home to her family.

You know why I like master copies?  Because they're mindless.  Copying is easy.  Blah blah blah and I learn about composition and color, blah blah.  But mostly they just make me feel good, because I pretend I invented the piece.

original.  

copy.


the end.

nice to ________ you



I'm a big fan o' Jessica Hische.  Hear the dulcet tones of her voice here.
On her website I found a mad lib form she made for her fans that helps one "automatically generate your flattering letter to me [Jessica]."  
I punched in my verbs, nouns, etc, and this beauty got sent to her.  Click it!



I'm a riot.  Fill out your own by venturing here.

Day 2 - Animal

I stumbled upon a drawing list that provides you with a subject for 30 days.  The first was a self-portrait, but I did that last week so I moved on to numero dos.  



Daschshunds are my favorite dogs because they look funny when they run.
