There's nothing like cookie dough to inspire. I hadn't planned on drawing this. I had four other things out, but they got pushed away by Nestle.

Something fresh. Quite a few things, really.

In the old wooden salad/bread bowl, several lettuces, tomatoes wedges, fresh mushroom, some cruton, boiled egg and bacon pieces. Yummy!

A (few) piece(s) of fruit. .

Generally I don't draw fruit, but this was fun, because the colors are so a) fun or b0 obnoxiously bright.

Hoot likes it though, and she's very critical.

This is my bed.It's about as diffferent ffrom the Wyeth painting Master Bedroom as can be, yet that painting inspired me.

My high school art teacher was big on Wyeth. This may have been partly because she was "tight" as they say in Greenwood, with the people involved in bringing the Wyeth exhibit to Greenville. Holly and Arthur someone.

EDM #'s 117 and 119

I saw a photo like this on a blog from EDM. I think it was Sherie, so I hope she doesn't mind. It was one ofthose really late nights when no one slept much.

I usually keep this broken necklace on my rear view car mirror. It catches light beautifully there, and truthfully, I enjoy it more here than when I wore it.. A more origina quote than this Wizard of Oz thing would have been nice, but this one's appropriate at least.

A long time. so a lot to post
















It's been a very long time between posting, but a lot of painting has taken place. I'm really enjoying the Molesine notebooks, though I read a lot of complaints about the paper quality, in various places.
So last weekend I moved up, from Cottman to artist watercolors. I also got a set of waterbrushes (not great quality, they were 3 for $5) and a Pitt pen. They're great and I had a happy week.
