Keeping Up
I have been very busy with avoiding work. Sometimes I work so hard at avoiding it, it somehow gets done.
This is my new thing, I guess. I draw a very loose, light sketch, then ink it with a dip pen, then color away in Photoshop. It is not too laborious, and I am mostly happy with the results. The problem is it kind of feels like cheating. It is somewhat wimpy to have the Control-Z so easily available. I think that I am going to do a second Teatrio (Bernard) story in this style. Mohamed asked me to do it quickly and I couldn't refuse. Anyway, I have to pay 50 Euro for my entry and it would cover both, so why not?
The dude is wearing the Sacre Coeur on his head, if you hadn't noticed. I call it Sacre Hat. He was supposed to be some random priest (with a Green Bay-like obsession with themed silly hats), but many people seemed to think he looked like me. I have another assignment this weekend to draw a self-portrait, so I might just draw another random dude and get me.

I really, really like him!
But you stole my idea of Prince Nepo, remember? Unless I originally stole that idea from you. I forget.
Butt, really, I like this style a lot. A lot a lot. But not as much as I like you. Googly giggly love love!

Oh, Marigold, quit trying to overcompensate for that guy you picked up at the R Bar on Saturday night.
When you draw you and your funny hat, I think you should wear Chartres Cathedral . Have you seen it on your Frenchy travels? I have always wanted to go.

Thanks, Wifey Lady! I love you!
I have no idea where that Cathedral is, Sara. Nor do I really care all that much to look it up. I guess I haven't been there, but it is really nice. Maybe one day I will knock it down with my fabulous brute strength.
