I went to a beekeeping meeting. I don’t have any bees yet. I jumped the gun though and went to a workshop and (with a lot of help) made a Warré hive last summer. I think maybe my yard is too small and I might have neighbors who’d object and…
pre-blog drawings continued. I am very lucky to have such interesting subjects to work with.
i know it’s not in order. But I was quite happy with this drawing and I may apply for a week-long artist residency, so I thought I should put these up as an example. Completely unplanned drawing at work, so they are disorganized. The next ones should be much better.
This day was a busy day cleaning my garden and my room. I could only get to a short little unfinished drawing here of some seed pods from the lettuce mix plants I grew this summer. meh. sometimes, you win, sometimes you don’t, but the point is… you keep going.
I was thinking about the photo I found at work from 1966 (and hence the drawing) and I was reminded of how difficult it is to keep photos preserved especially in places with high humidity. I found this photo from my stash as a reminder of that. I no longer…

This drawing took me a lot longer than I anticipated. I was ambitious but not realistic about the amount of time it would take and the amount of time I had. I found a sweet photograph of this gentleman at work, in the process of clearing out an office from…
I went to the first class of a seven class series on learning another pop song’s dance routine. This time it’s Beyonce’s “Run the World (Girls)”. To be honest, I didn’t recognize this song at all. I normally listen to NPR or my CD’s (and… yes, cassette tapes), so I’m…
I’m about a day behind in posting these because I decided to use a scanner, but I can only access it in the day and I usually don’t have my drawing done by then. I need to get my own scanner soon. Anyway, yesterday I met with my painting group, but I haven’t…
