The sculptures in my masters thesis show were like this – assemblages of various thoughts and experiences, textures and approaches. This sketch was from that time too – or earlier or later, I don’t recall. To me any day in my life is like that – a little of this and little of that. I thought this a bit bright and cheerful for a bright and cheerful day.
Today’s image is a digital rehash of one of my paintings – layered and enhanced. I started to post my Daily Napkin, and it seemed like it needed an illustration (They usually would benefit from an image, in my opinion, however, I don’t always have time). I started mining my scanned images and photographs to create the perfect image, when I was reminded of this one (Called Moondancer). I think it bears repeating.

Have you ever played with mono printing? It is great fun. Short description: you spread ink out on a plexiglass sheet, play with it with stylus, rubberstamps, your fingers, a brush, until you get an image you want, lay the paper down on it and press it with a brayer, and pull the paper.
