here's the completed painting. it still needs about a day's worth of work for finishing touches but its pretty much finished. i'm going to do a series in this style, it's hard to stick to one thing but its better than having several completely different and unrelated works, right? i mean if you're going to do a show they cant all look entirely ( Read more... )

I don't know what it is about Jacksonville but I'm painting again and I'm convinced it has to do with the place. It's been about 6 years since I last did anything creative!

Topic of discussion was my weight pretty much the entire time. I lost some weight but not a huge amount, and to them apparently it was extremely noticeable. Most of them ( Read more... )

Why does it feel like in normal daily conversations with friends and strangers it's almost like one isn't allowed to mention their other half? Actually it happens mostly when I talk to women.
