Dear Diary...












Alright...so here are some things. My computer has a virus now too...holy shit right! So I am at the library. Anyway...the top is a self caricature, then there are some sketches, and then there is a painting using water color. All the drawings and paintings, with acception to the caricature, are about the size of a credit card or a little more (the actual drawings, not the surface)...so detail is pretty graphic for now. I did the red pen drawings on illustration board, as I plan to paint them too. The main purpose is to focus on color theory, so I chose a small size to save time and money.

I feel pretty good today, other than the fact that my breathing is feeling a bit muffled. Tomorrow is another appointment at the dentist, and then I only have one more left. They have to seat my tooth for a crown, which means that they are going to be sawing it in half. For all those who have never had a root canal, take care of all your teeth. And if you have a food trap or problem area like I had (from braces or just natural), get it fixed. This is not fun.

I can't wait to finish these appointments and get back home...maybe that will help too

Haha...OK, that is all for now...enjoy!

Hey Matt, I'm liking all of the ballpoint work. You are really "spanking out" a lot of drawing(as Dave Nielsen would put it.) Nice work man, keep cruisin'.

Thanks for the comments fellas! Of course you realize Brian, you leave me wide open on that comment for remarks like, "That's not all he's spanking out." But that's alright...I will blame it on Dave's unique dialect, and my own imagination...yeah, imagined.
