If you’re working on a pastel drawing and your wife comes in and you wipe your finger down her forehead and say, “Simba”, she does not think you’re funny.

Sometimes the leftover combinations are better than the og.

#art #sculpture #polymerclay I finally finished this piece! A reliquary to hold ashes of my best friend Many thanks for the thoughtful suggestions that helped make this happen. I’m talking about @justinkingdesigns.bsky.social @rdickerson.bsky.social @jfsculpts.bsky.social
A polymer clay sculpture painted to look like weathered cast bronze of a rhinoceros with a house-shaped burden on its back. The house has the number 20 and letter “w” and a scissor headed bird on the front. There is a long pole that extends out horizontally from the structure that has a pumpkin dangling from it.A polymer clay sculpture painted to look like weathered cast bronze of a rhinoceros with a house-shaped burden on its back.

My solution, lacking a working portal gun, to be in two places at once.
A picture of a tripod and my phone pointed at plumbing connections in a wall so I can look for leaks while being two floors away. Yesterday my watch told me I did 27 flights of stairs running back and forth. I had to take it all apart this morning because one of my threaded connections had the tiniest of leaks.

Figure study. Focus was the chest so forgive that lower arm. Side note: I drew a face.
Figure study of a masculine figure sitting drawn as though they are sitting higher than the viewer their head tilted

And bricks-these bricks are pretty cool they were dug and made in my neighborhood in 1905-ish. I think everyone has access to a pile of bricks somewhere on their property in the city. It’s nice to reuse them. Oil on acrylic on brick A sardine brick and rainbow trout brick

Lunch date with wife today. We stopped by the Kemper at Washington University Campus. A few of my favs from today. I really like the scale of the Ai Weiwei prison selfie made from Lego.

Four owls, this was for a commission. I sold one owl, to someone else and in the end she decided to go with a fish. I suppose my owls just aren’t as fun as the fish. Anyway- I enjoyed the exercise.
Great horned owl oil pastels water color and acrylic. This is the first one coincidentally and it sold to someone else.Pink owl over green acrylicGreat horned owl over green acrylic

My kids favorite salsa was discontinued and the salsa sees more action in daily meals than any other condiment so we had to solve this problem. We introduced new salsa by making an objective salsa score card. They loved and ultimately went with the salsa number two. A sweet mild red

Like, is the Ontario Lake a genius move to distract us from more important things or is he just a petty little man who can’t help himself?

I had no recollection of this book. I remember “My Side of the Mountain” but this one, nothing. I read it with my eight year old and while mostly the book was about survival and adventure. There were some heavier topics, death, divorce, infidelity and suicide. Continued—-➡️
