The Sketchbook Project is a collection of stechbooks from around the world. There is no subject or criteria other than one must leave the sketchbook in its original dimensions.
I joined this year with a friend. We thought that it would be fun. I thought it was going to be difficult since I am a procrastinator. I have managed to finish. My friend has not... the good news is that she still has 2 weeks to finish!
Here are my drawings - animal portraits, all in black ink.
Here and There and Perhaps Everywhere
Never being a person of a cohesive train of thought, I only feel it necessary to be that way with a blog too. I don't know what this blog will ultimately become, but I am sure that it is not going to be a flowing theme... stay tuned!

Where I have been
SO it has been a while... a rather long while since the last post. My excuse for this is the following: I have been learning a new trade- WELDING!!!!
Such endeavours take time. And that can be translated to me being slow at perfecting the art of welding. It is a work in progress starting from accumulating the steel to thinking about assembling it to actually manipulating the material and finally welding. The smallest thing can really take a vast amount of time!
This first piece was something fun made with a classmate while we were learning to weld with Oxy-acetylene. The welds are rough but we had fun and were proud of the final piece.
As fun as welding is, I am laying down my gloves (for the moment - I will come back to welding) and going to pursue pottery next.

After this, I worked on a sculpture that I saw once. I like how it turned out. The head is actually not welding. I cast it in resin.

A new landscape
A piece I completed for my cousin. Her request was that it be red and look like one of my landscapes. When I finished it, I considered keeping it and making a different one for my cousin!
