I like to draw people. I like to make observations about things.
Arrived an hour early for the Sky-Fever game. Yes, I'm rooting for both. Saw my first Sky game back in 2010. Also, a Fever season ticket holder for several years. I'm happy whoever wins. Hope it is a good game. Fever bounce back from the loss to the Aces and Sky no. 12 Sidney Taylor performs. #WNBA
Another drawing exercise. Drawing feet convincingly is hard. Blocking in the general shapes and knowledge of human anatomy is a start. But that takes lots of practice. It is preferable to draw from life. However, that may be impractical. Drawn with Blackwing 602 graphite. #drawingthefeet
Drawing exercise of Dottir from Daniel Maidman's Patreon photo reference set. Chose this pose for the raised arms that show her axillary area. A difficult thing to draw due to interplay of muscles. 45 mins, drawn with Blackwing 602 graphite on sketch pad. #figuredrawing #femalemodel #graphitedrawing
Figure drawing from Noa the model's reference set. This pose interested me. However, many things are out of proportion or out of place. Will try this drawing again. Drawn with Blackwing soft graphite on sketch pad. #figuredrawing #drawingfromphoto
My favorite sign from last weekend's No Kings protest in Chicago. Wonder if they got laid off from Argon National Laboratory or Fermi Lab. #NoKingsChicago
So glad for the warm weather coming this week. It beats waiting for the bus in this weather.
Got to hear former congressman Adam Kinzinger @adamkinzinger.substack.com at the Paramount Theater tonight. As a guest of the local Democratic party. Spoke on a variety of issues. I would correct him on one thing. I don't think all members of the kreigsmarine were in the national socialist.
When I first saw the preview for this film, I thought this was a mash up of Stephen King's "Misery" and Tom Hanks "Castaway."
Figure drawing Sunday. Did an online session this morning. Our model was Nicole. Drawn with Blackwing graphite on Strathmore drawing paper. #figuredrawing
10 years ago, posted a picture from February 2011. Dubbed "Snowmageddon." The storm dumped so much snow that it closed Lakeshore Drive and stranded thousands of motorists. There was even "thundersnow." 😱
Having tacos, lousy with shredded cheese and sour cream. It is also selt-torture because of lactose intolerance. Watching Unrivaled basketball too. #tacosaturday #tacos
Figure drawing work in progress of Natasha from her photo reference set. Drawn with Blackwing soft graphite on drawing pad. ##figuredrawing
Out and about this morning and saw the Sears Tower through a gap in the cloud.
So... this piñata exists. Find it hard to belive sweet sweet candy is inside though.
Catching the Amtrak to Chicago for a holiday weekend. Met a cat outside. Didn't want to be petted though. 🫤 #cat #neighborhoodcat
Hot chocolate and reading a book borrowed from the library are just the thing on a Saturday snow storm.
The other week, waiting at the bus stop to take the bus to work, first snowfall of the season.
Got here early for the Fever-Dream playoff game. The entire place is decked out in red shirts. It's red shirt night. 😊 #WNBA
Calling Angel Reese's signature shoe "AR1" makes it sound like a firearm.
One of the better pictures of Te-hina PaoPao of the Atlanta Dream. At Gainbridge to watch the Fever take on the Dream. So far, Jordin Canada is owning this game. Fever down by 5 at the half. #WNBA
