My Beloved Wife

You were the love for certain of my life
To me, you were always my beloved wife
I don't know for certain how I'll live my life
Now alone without my beloved wife......
I can't believe, I've lost the very best of me

Ms. Daisy

Daisy, the Beagle / Corgi mix that we picked up from the rescue center 6 years ago... at the time, they thought she was about 4 years old. She is still sassy.

Wirry-carl



This is the official start of the Boogeyman files. I have been wanting to work on a collection of this sort for years and now is the time. The first piece was done a few months ago with Japan's Kuchisaki-ona... But this piece kicks off the series. How many? Who knows. I have lots of research gathered...

Wirry-carl- In Scotland, a wirey-cow or wirry-carl was a bugbear, goblin, ghost, ghoul or other frightful object. Sometimes the term was used for the Devil or a scarecrow.

more red Door Drawing for July 2010, part 2

A change in how the model stand was set up, and so the ruffle in the routine caused everyone to move from their established spots and think. It is good to shake it up a bit. Bravo to Lacey.

red Door Drawing for July 2010

A full house on this evening... a hot summer night, so I parked myself on the cool floor and drew fabric. It was a good evening. If you can't see the model, it is no excuse to still not produce some work. Focus on something that you can see. This case: fabric draped over a sofa pillow. Good friends, good times, good music, and I get to draw, what else could a person wish for?
