Hey! Look! I drew something! No, really! I actually drew something!
Amazing right? I mean, not so much the drawings themselves, but the idea that I actually took the initiative to push a pen around when there were so many things to watch on TV. Kind of inspiring, right? Well, I did this for you.
You’re welcome.

Hey!
This is awesome. Thanks Matt.
That is all.

Sadly, there is a lot of truth in this.

A recent sketch of yet another older, round faced gentleman.

This is a recent digital sketch.
You know, I really like old people.

This was a throw away doodle I did recently but the more I look at it the more metaphorical it seems. I’m sure what it’s saying but I can guarantee you that it’s lame.

Thanks to everyone who was kind enough to email me and offer suggestions on how to curb the influx of spam comments to this blog. I’m happy to report that I’ve set up the Akismet plugin and it has worked like a charm, just like everyone said it would.

Also I’m happy to report that work (both the day job and freelance) is beginning to slow down as projects wrap up. I still have a few more weeks of work before things are officially in the bag, but compared to recent months my currently workload seems like a vacation. I’m looking forward to taking some time off, relaxing, and working on personal projects… and fixing this blog after my Wordpress upgrade crapped it up.

And a big thank you to Yay! Monday for featuring my website in their current issue. You’re nice.

So there!

Thanks to Spam, I’ve disabled comments on the blog. I get a lot of spam comments on this site and I try to stay on top of deleting them all as they come in, but over the past couple of weeks I’ve let that slide… which is why I have a backlog of 7,000+ spam comments to delete now.

Lesson learned.

When it comes to art, I haven’t done much lately due to a busy, busy schedule. One day during lunch a few weeks back, however, I did sit down and doodle for a few minutes. This is what became of that stolen sketching session: three guys and one hat. Two looking suspiciously at the third, who, after much debate I imagine, decided to sport his largest floating hat before leaving his home that morning. Of course art, like most maths and sciences, is subjective, so you are free to come up with your own interpretations of the drawing… but you’ll probably be wrong.

Here’s a quick sketch from yesterday… about glasses. The image is a bit distorted (at least on my monitor) so click on the drawing to see it the way it should be.

Here is the last of the old illustrations that I came across a couple weeks back. This one shows us the step in the Alphabetic Process when the two halves of the letter F get welded together.
