not so lazy

starts as a door...

that goes inside a tree i guess...

and the tree is floaty and looks like a foot but was supposed to look more like a hand...

i had to do something while waiting for Mike to get home from the lab.

it doesn't need to make sense.

lazy lazy lazy

Bobby (my brother) and I did this a while ago

i might be the laziest person i know. i haven't done much in a while. i started painting a picture of mikey and then stopped. i would like to have people to make art with, and though i seem to have mentioned this to all of the people i know who may be creative, i can't get anything organized. i may be working with an awesome wall artist soon.... that would be amazing. he does some incredible portraits. i will post some old drawings soon.. and then some new ones. first i have to figure out how to budget my time better.

making strawberry shortcake ;)

 I have a 30+ year-old blanket with this character on it, and I spent the afternoon tracing it and trying to duplicate it. Why? Who knows really...

 Black and white versions.

The feet are pretty sloppy but this is the sharpie and colored pencil version.

 My workspace is getting crowded, maybe due to beginning new projects in the midst of forgotten messes.

Started a new painting today on a canvas that was a gift from my cousin, Emilie.

past work. inspiration. boredom.

In an effort to regain motivation and momentum, I will share some old art that I am fond of. Is it biased to like your own stuff? I get the feeling people aren't supposed to admit their own art is their favorite. I will just accept it as a positive thing (it must be reinforcing, otherwise I would not conspire to engage in such activities). Blah blah blog stuff.

end of day result:

First stage of practice painting. Oh yeah, it's Bender. :) I still have a ways to go...

1. art

Starting off slowly. New art desk. New arrangement of furniture. New light. One painting to be started soon...
