Blank Monitor Monday, tradition ensues

Sorry, my ex-in-laws were in town to see my son after 3 years of not seeing him, so I did not sit down to create anything or work to finish other things. I have "loads" of new ideas that came to me though, so when I have free time (between watching two hours of TV [PRISON BREAK, and TERMINATOR] and dealing with a small child that wants me to build a 1,326 piece Lego spaceship for him that his grandparents bought for him, I should scrape something together... I hope.

An Alaskan's Opinion

I'm sure by now you know more about our Alaskan VP candidate than you want to, but here is some good info from someone who lived in her town for a very long time.

Mostly background information that shows something into her character - not much - but some.

best line I heard today:
“Jesus was a Community Organizer, and Pontius Pilate was a Governor.”

This will only make sense if you watched the Republican Convention when Sarah Palin was introduced to an unknowing world and sneered at Obama as being only an "organizer".

I do not know how the above would cleverly tie into the reported threat of Palin's being faced with a recall vote on her mayorship until an administrator was hired to help her be mayor and run her city for her. Sorry, guess she is just not an organizer and figures figureheads hire organizers to do the work for them.

more bomb, more

unfinished, I was just running out of time so I am posting this. If this site goes slower than anew artpost a day, it will explode. Which would be good I guess if this site "exploded", you know, went big and even more global... If do NOT post once a day, this site will NOT explode. That makes more sense.
Thank you global audience.

Just scrambling for filler. Two sticks of dynamite, who knows whom could be impressed by that, get more bang for your buck?

in-progress - Coils - 37.5%

This sketch is 37.5% done. Hopefully when I get to the last 50%, I'll find out is the $30 pens are worth it.
-You ever get to working, and get into this "Zone" where you are just really doing good and feel right? You don't get that when you have a five year old interupting you every 5 minutes. You almost get there, then, "Dad! Look!"

sorry, blank monitor day

It was a rough weekend, it was not pleasant and I am totally unprepared for posting here. I am still in a state of shock, and suffering nightmares and sleeplessness.
Thank you for your patrontage, please come again.

In-Progress - Coils - 25% done

There is a a better name for this as it is just a page in my sketch book, and not a... Whatever the opposing thing is that is not just a page in my sketch book, but I cannot think of it right now. This "color study" is 25% done, and from that a more serious project will hatch. Like the kind that could be hung on a wall.
I really wish my digital camera was not having a disagreement with all CPUs I have access to, it would be nice to put larger stuff I cannot fit on a scanner bed up here.
My son was teaching himself Photoshop this evening, tools and layers.
...
It came to me that I know at least two firefighters. One jumped out of helicoptors as a Smokejumper and I went to the prom with her way before that, and the other is just your regular run-of-the mill hero house fire and people rescuing firefighter (actually he is a chief, or some big authority figure now. Kind of like a king, maybe).
I was thinking about one of my ideas, "The Very Last Moment" and it made me think of them.
