Still in-progress - ...to have fun

It is my postulation that Rhona Mitra must smell good. I saw DOOMSDAY last night, she is the lead actress and main character in the movie and my supposition (Rhona Mitra is vastly good in a number of pleasing ways) is what I walked away with from the viewing. So it is vastly bewildering why I should be woken the next morning by a dream of Natalie Portman and the four feather-light-tickling-like kisses she laid on me. It is my assumption that vastly surreal dreams that cover a number of senses are the sign of either vast incredible intelligence or just run of the mill stuff that everyone has all the time every night.
(Kip Fulbeck is kind of a big deal. A couple of books, the two I know of are "Permanence", and "Half Asian 100% Hapa," and he is more than a little famous and at large in a few other areas but you can look him up in Google and discover more for yourself.)
I'd like to be at large and a little famous also, I think. Someday, maybe I might even have someone think I must smell okay, too.

In Progress - I just want to have fun


I had high hopes for this one and it was looking good then I kind of rushed and did not try-out the inks I picked, leaving me to pull out the ink bottle long before i intended to, to hide my mistake and - my hands are still black from the ink that leaked all over because the seal on the bottle does not approve of tha bottle being upside down - so last night I made the lines between the strings and that was not the original idea. This morning I think I can make it work, or at least work it. This is in progress.
Kip Fulbeck, an "old" art professor of mine has published an art book on tattoos. All the information is at home so I will have to get the title for you, if you want it, whne I go home tonight. I had Kip for a course in performance art, all I can recall is bringing a big box of ceramic frogs to class one day and doing a story for each one until cut off. I think it was my U/D Sculpture class where I almost set my 7 foot tall sculpture on fire, or at least fire was involved somehow.
Oddball expression to work in to your day for today, "Well, time to climb back into the pickle jar."

Infinity Burrito 2.0


I've learned that while the original paper copy looks fair to fine, that the scanner does not seem to appreciate the finer fainter parts of my subtle gray that I laid down on this brown paper when scanning this artwork in. I made it darker but the scanner took it three steps further... oops.

In progress - Infinity Burrito


I signed & dated it but I still need to go back and deepen it, give it better definition to the shadows (where the shadows should be).
It is odd, everytime my son is away, I get woken up by his voice and he is not there. When he is here, he never wakes me up (except when he wants water or to watch cartoons, or if he is hungry or had a bad dream). It is only when he is 11 hours away visiting family in Calif. that I hear him crying at night. Spooky.
I heard wind-chimes last night, it was really annoying. I wanted to throw my infinity burrito at them but when I woke up they were gone. I never have a burrito when I need it when I am laying under a pile of goldfish in a tunnel, you ever have that problem in your dreams?
