nudies vs. KU

Tonight we had a nude model, again. She has a pretty good sense of humor and kept telling me I must like her butt because that's all I will draw. Well, it's hard to draw her front when all I see is her back. It's difficult to show curves (unless its a bone) of a very gangly person. She had minute gestures. These are my figure studies while hyped up on a Diet Pepsi-coffee mix, the caffeine of late night champion artists.

And, again...
And one last time.

I have drawing ADHD. I changed the color of my papers several times. I went from yellow to pink to gray. At least I have variety.

Now onto KU... wow-wee! If I could insert me singing the Rock Chalk chant would I ever! I was a little peeved at Mario Chalmers for constantly falling and napping on the court until he scored the 3-pointer. Long story short, I gots me the KU Fever. Rock Chalk Jayhawk KU!

Happy Uterus

In June, I guess Lissa, Carrie, Tracie and I are going to be in some local art fair. I hope when the park says, "Art...", they mean crafts, because that’s what we’re doing. I guess I can submit some small postcard size pastel drawings to keep us from being boo’d out of there by real artists. Besides, these ladies tend to amaze me with everything they make, so people really should be high-fiving us for bringing something new and refreshing to their little artfest. And leave it to me to bring all the uteri I’ve been making. So far, I have a zombie, construction worker, nurse, and a ninja uterus and, of course, the original uterus that started it all and got me in a magazine: Happy Uterus. It’s crocheted (amigurumi) for those of you furrowing your brows and backing away from your computer right now. They’re quite cute and when you see them, you’ll want one, trust me.

Carrie and I went on a glass fusing and slumping binge for a couple of weeks. We followed up on our carcenogic escapades by attending the Topeka Symphony (which I think I liked more than she did). And then I went out and bought another box of bandaids because I tend to cut myself more than anyone else when gripping my glass.

I swear, one of these days I'm going to post some kind of visual image to help us all along...

my first real blog...oh, my!

Well, I've joined the ranks of intarweb!1! bloggers everywhere. I'm one of you guys now...one that reads, one that writes, and even one that comments frequently. I'm startin' this blog because too many people have them and I strive to be assimilated.

My real purpose is to get my name out there...well, by that I just mean my artwork and my addiction to crafts.

Anything I post on here will be for sale (this is where I pimp my stuff) unless otherwise noted.

Thanks for reading!
