Two Months On Average.

How long it
takes me to get through a sketchbook (128 pages).
Someday, my kids are going to have to clean out boxes
upon boxes of sketchbooks if I keep this up. Below is
the opening spread for the book I finished today.

Must Be The Weather.
May 08, 2008 09:16 PM
After several
weeks of unseasonably wonderful weather, it's turned
damp, dreary and dismal. It's enough to make anyone
cranky I suppose. But things are looking up — I'm
heading to Centerville with the kids to visit my folks.
I think it's the first time I've been home for Mother's
Day in about 13 years. EEK! Long overdue.

Balls, Bats and Holes in One.

My daughter's not too interested in her teeth coming out. This one involved a little blood and she is "so not into pain". I have got to stop talking like a teenager in front of my kids. I doubt that particular phrase — so not into — would be in her repertoire if not for me.

RSS Update.
May 05, 2008 08:22 PM
I don't know
how, I don't know why, but the RSS link seems to be
working again. There are several readers you can
subscribe through (NewsGator, Feedburner), but I
subscribe through Google Reader. My images still don't
show up in Google Reader, but if you click on the
arrow, it does now take you to my webpage.
If it was working for you already and you now have 200+ "new" posts from me, I'm really sorry. Thanks for bearing with me and I'll try not to screw it up again. But considering I've no clue what I did or how I fixed it ... well, just wish me luck.

A Drawing And A Sunburn.
May 05, 2008 08:17 PM
My husband and
I went to our first "Cruise-In" yesterday. Basically
— for the non-gearhead — you park your
classic car, walk around and look at other classic
cars, talk to other classic car owners and sit by your
car so you can talk to people walking by. This one was
sponsored by the N.E. Ohio Oldsmobile Club, so all the
cars were Olds. There were quite a few Cutlasses, but I
liked ours the best — it was the nicest of the
"drivers", at least in my unbiased opinion.
I took a couple of laps around, but obviously spent quite a bit of time in the same place working on this drawing. At least if a nice sunburn is any indication.

Baby Moly On It's Way.

The
inspiration for my theme comes from watching my
children. When the two of them draw and create, there
are no insecurities, no rules and no judgments. They
just pick up a crayon and have fun.
Between teachers, grades and responsibilities, my
artistic road has been bumpy. I've spent too much time
being practical about my art and too little time just
doing it. I think I'm on the right path now — I'm
back to creating art because it's something I have to
do.
I suppose I'm wondering how other artists continue, in
spite of having grown up. Or at least having to act
like a grown up.
RSS Feed.
May 04, 2008 05:14 PM
So here's the
deal. I thought the RSS feed was working, but
apparently it's not. I'm trying very hard to figure out
why that is, but so far I'm just frustrated and it
still doesn't work. I hate being
technically-challenged. I'm sure it's some simple
setting that I don't have set right, but alas, I
haven't found it yet.
If anyone out there has any interest in walking me through setting it up through RapidWeaver, please feel free.
