DILLOS

I do not know why. but tonight i was possessed by the need... to draw ARMADILLOS. which quickly turned into hungover and dylan dillos.
some colour on that one
Found a photo off the Peace Corps' facebook of a winter scene in 1971 Iran. Thought it was pretty... and then did this in 20 minutes. Then I got bored, because I don't like doing landscapes... and moved on.

Count yer blessin's

... for instance... I've got perfect teeth. Never had braces. Damn grateful.

Voodoo priests. AKA I was watching princess & the frog and I'm in love with the Shadow Man.

and oh hey doodly saloon chick.

But yeah, I'm going through some scary stuff. I have to go back to taking a medicine that makes me very very sick.

It'll all be just fine though, I know it.

Jimi and cowboys

hour and a half acrylic mess of jimi
some cowboys
'nother cowboy
aand another.

Needless to say, I saw True Grit. Hence all the cowboys. It was a fantastic movie, and I highly recommend it.

And Black Swan. And Tron.

I attempted to start some bigger portraits tonight but Northwest Ohio is REALLY lacking in art stores. So... I'm going to pray I find something soon so I can actually do them.

I've been watching Inglorious Basterds and Amelie all night, so currently it is rather tough to think in English.

hm.

A monster I doodled in about ten minutes, sitting on the edge of a couch, killing time.

Hey y'all! A lot's happened since my last post. For instance:

in other news... I haven't posted because I've been busy making xmas cards for some people. I included a couple on here, but for most I actually forgot to take pictures. I didn't make too many because I spent a lot of time on each one, and I only made them for people who asked.

But it was fun.

Expect another post here soon- I'm gonna do a series of native american portraits for a show in Rochester the first week of January. I just have to get around to doing it.

Hope everyone had a lovely stress free safe travel christmas!
