Gingerly


We have two little dogs. They each weigh in at about 15 lbs (7 kilos, or so). So, walking around in our house is different than it once was. It seems like the little guys are constantly underfoot, and if any one of us were to stride around at a normal clip, dogs would go flying hither and yon. So, now we shuffle around and shimmy and dodge. I'm not saying it's bad, it's just the reality of the situation.

See it here first! You could see it elsewhere soon, but there are some horrifying images over there...

A Bird


I know, it's been awhile. I apologize for that. It happens from time to time, though. Things get busy at work, at home, the creative juices flow a little more slowly-- challenges arise. It's all right. I'm still here, and you're still here. This will work out fine!

So, how have you been? I hope you've been doing well.

(Summer) Solstice


OK, Summer's here (in the Northern Hemisphere, anyway.) Enjoy the rest of the longest day of the year!

Rest


I'm finally done with that freelance project I mentioned earlier. Now I can redirect the flow in this direction a bit more. Thanks for waiting.

Moth

Cooper and I like to go outside and look for bugs. It's one of his favorite things to do. So, whenever we find an inchworm, we keep it in his bug house thing, and give it leaves to eat and after awhile it turns into a cocoon and eventually a moth. It's always a big event when we release a moth.

So, a couple mornings ago, I discovered that a moth had emerged during the night. So, I got Cooper, and we proceeded to go outside and open the door of the bug house thing and the moth flew out and landed on something, and we admired the markings on its wings and after a minute, it flew over to some plant or another, and we watched it sit on a leaf and after a minute or so, it took off again, and a mockingbird snatched it out of the air and flew away.

We were stunned for a second, and just stared at each other. I didn't know how Cooper would react, but he took it in stride. I think it affected me more than it did him. Anyway, that's what inspired this drawing. Have a nice weekend.

Oh, and always release your moths at night-- that's the lesson. Well, it's ONE of the lessons you can take away from this...

Free Lance!

My creative juices dry up a bit when I have freelance work to do on the side. I expect to be done in the next week or two, so hopefully I'll be blogging more regularly.

Crayon drawing from lunch...I added the yellow & gray tone later in Photoshop.
