Day 3 & 4

All the sketches are actually from today, I was bad and went to see the Cuba exhibit at the Musee des Beaux Arts yesterday instead of drawing. I found an Ideology Detector, though (*snicker*)

People smelled really wonderful there, like bubblegum and sunscreen. I almost didn't mind how ridiculously overcrowded it was. ALMOST didn't mind, I admit I skimmed over some stuff due to claustrophobia, but that's what a free day at a museum will get you, I guess. It was a good day to be outside and wandering in breezy downtown sun, at any rate.

Day 2

This has nothing to do with anything, but I ADORE Jeffrey Lewis, is all. I'm listening him sing through the History of Punk on the Lower East Side right now, and he even threw the Silver Apples in there, and it's comprehensive and fun and full of his scratchy boyish monotone. Wee!

I had a day full of disappointments but none of them were that disappointing -- gross energy bar, gross diet blackcurrant soda, gross um... seitan dinner. Okay, it was all food disappointments. And I did find this awesome bracelet for a dollar.

My life IS the embodiment of excitation.

Day 1

All right. I cook too much and I don't draw enough... and it's time to switch the balance. For some reason I'm even getting sick of imagining kumquat cupcakes and goji toast all the time... so I'm hereby promising myself and the world one (1, uno, une, a) drawing per day. At the very least. I just need to get back into the habit of using my pencils as therapy, release, entertainment, and stress-free noodling. Like a kid in a sandbox.

Anyway, she's called leafbutt candlehead ---

Expect more tomorrow!
