A blue, so long ago

colored pencil and black sharpie

Calbayog City 2024

The Philippine Sea is a deep almost violet blue.

It came to me in a dream once.

And now I'm here.

But I'm not there.

And isn't that where I've always been?

This drawing is pretty much done, but it's not done.

In any case, I've moved on to the next piece.

Write that on my tombstone.

Go to your local county hospital. If your glucose level is high they will adjust it and admit you if necessary. Once they learn of your financial situation they will set you up with a social worker who will arrange for your insulin. I've worked in many county hospitals and I've never seen anyone in need of insulin turned down.

For the past two days I've been playing with the zygomatic process. It gives some drama to a drawing. And I've always thought it had the coolest name in all of human anatomy.

This morning as I lay with my wife she thought I was massaging her head. And I was. But I was also appreciating her zygomatic process.

Lost in time

I think this was the last Sierpinski drawings I did. I really enjoyed making these drawings. The sierpinski triangle is a drawing technique that one, or at least that I, can become utterly lost in. Hours can go by with no other thought than "draw."

So lovely.

Like a good drug.

I should do another one.

Chet Baker - Almost blue

This song kills me.

I just want to say thank you. Your art offers a different perspective. I haven't had very much energy lately, but scrolling through tumblr and seeing your latest piece. I don't know what to say. Just a small glimpse and I was obsessed. It reminded me of the fact that everything large achievement is composed of a multitude of small goals. Art can change the direction of the world, and yours shifted my course a little.

Wow, thank you anonymous, you just made my day. - Patrick

This drawing came out of nowhere. Like a mystical gift, one day it just happened.

As usual, listen to both songs before voting, and define "better" any way you wish! (Although by now, you've probably heard all these songs many times over.)

Lavender

colored pencil, calbayog city, 2025

Ok, its done. I added one more layer of lavender just because lavender is lovely.

Even Sean, my nine year old son, and harshest critic, likes it. So.. it's done.

My only regret in life is that I didn't come to the Philippines sooner. I love it here.

Message to Michael - Dionne Warwick

Just because I love this song.

We're going on a road trip today. Up to the north coast of the Island. We'll pack the van with my kids and ten or so cousins. And lots of food. And have fun 🤣

Let me tell you about blue...

The Pacific ocean is so beautiful.
