I think the title of most of my posts should just be blah, blah, blah.

I mean REALLY? Every post has to have a title? I would title it "Post entry no. whatever, but I'm sure if I began numbering them I'd screw up somewhere along the line and there would eventually be 8 number tens.

Busy summer spot of late. Went to my high school reunion back in PA. Nice to see that all us fucked up kids we all were in high school managed to grow up and be fucked up adults. Kidding. I realized I have never matured. Everyone had kids and was concerned with all the things in the world out there that might corrupt their kids as they go out in the world. I have no kids. Having kids is like the longest set up to some crazy game you never realized you were in. Create this little person . Grow them and try to instill some knowledge to prepare them for a world where you won't be to protect them. Then, shoot them out there after 18 to 22 years of prep!  See what happens. I've played a few really long Monopoly games but they've never gone more than a few hours.

I had a great time making friends with people I should have known a long time ago but just had to wait until now. Some I remembered a bit but most I hadn't thought about since I got my diploma.

Anyway, here's some stuff I've been doing...

I share a studio with the famous, Molly Crabapple. She had these nice inks (Ecoline) laying around so I snagged a bottle of the blue and tried it out. I was working in my Canson sketch pad so the paper wasn't the thickest. It held up well enough with the pen nib I was using. I also splashed a little watercolor graphite "Art Graf" over the Dr Martin matte ink I like to use. I touched it up a little with white gouache. Holbein gouache, since I seem to be name dropping so much in this post. Sheesh!
