Frank, Baby!

So, yesterday, while cleaning my apartment and realizing how cold it was, the song "Summer Wind" came wafting into my head. Maybe that helped me feel warmer somehow, but I still felt the need to connect with "ole blue eyes" in some fashion. Here he is, yet, I cannot picture him without thinking of the imitation/tribute that Phil Hartman did on SNL years ago. I don't mind that version of Frank Sinatra as it makes me laugh.

It worked!

Hey so i decided i try at least one more time to see if something would post! and YAAAAAY it did!

drew this the other day while my kids were watching Incredibles. I figured if anyone had a crush on edna it be a minion off of despicable me. Whos your valentine?

Finished Jackie Robinson!

After a few failed attempts at drawing other things, I decided that I needed to finish this one once and for all /scan and post it. I feel like I'm doing a lot of work with very little payoff these days. It's a little depressing. 

Sketch in progress (what a shock)

Hoping to finish this soon, for a friend (among other art that I need to do) I love that generic phrase. Art - I'm doing art.....for ......stuff.............

 and junk..

Brooklyn Dodgers, in Progress

This one is taking a bit longer than a normal sketch would. I'm trying to work in what I can, when I can. My eyes have been red and irritated lately. maybe staring too much at the computer is the issue. I tend not to blink when concentrating so, that might be the cause. I decided to ignore that and get some drawing done. I may be finished with this soon, and then, I'll post it. I may just not, draw up another one that I had my eye on and post that instead.

Jackie Robinson had quite a life worth reading a bit about, if you have the inclination.

Great Scotts

Lowell Issac on Facebook yesterday posted some sketches he'd drawn from doing a random Google search on "Bill." Good idea! I searched "Scott" and sketched these...

Another Wahine Postcard

I get these little pads of watercolor paper postcards at the grocery store. The paper is horrible, and doesn't take the paint well at all. Its too porous, so washes don't work well. But they are great for sending out little sketches like this.

the end? =O

Hey everyone! my computer is messin' up these days and not allowing me to post any pics. So this is a temporary goodbye from the site i guess.If you still want to check out sketches i have a facebook and a tumblr account for just art.. www.facebook.com/theanimatedlife  http://www.tumblr.com/blog/theanimatedlife

Bears Guy

I saw this in a local Chicago paper and loved this guys expression. I am thoroughly confused just as much as the man in the picture looks incredulous to the degree that I don't watch football. I simply cannot devote any brain time to the watching or dedication of any thinking space to football. I will, however, watch movies about football.
I think I needed to spend more time on the look of utter disgust this man was displaying. Delightful. I loved this picture. 

DId I post this?
