art
At some point over the summer, I took up drawing again. I have some proper sketchpads and drawing pencils, but I don't actually use them very often.
More often than not, I end up doodling. I have this great, purple-inked uniball pen that I love, and I carry it in my purse at all times.
Sometimes, when I'm sitting at the bar, an idea will pop in my head, or I'll just get bored and idly start doodling...
there isn't usually any specific subject...I just kind of let my wrist relax, and whatever I draw, I draw.
Usually, I'm doodling on a bar napkin...
I'd been leaving them on the bar at the end of the night, and assumed that they were just being thrown out.
About a week ago, I went over to Andy's. As I turned around to shut the door behind me, there was one of my drawings, hanging on the wall next to the doorframe.
Now, Andy's got an apartment full of art. REAL art. Art that he's PAID for. Some of the pieces have been given to him, but it's all by people who are genuine artists. They've gone to school for art. They've done commissions. They've got prints.
And there, hanging up next to their pieces, is MY doodle. On a bar napkin.
