*crickets*

been somewhat quiet ‘round here, eh?

apologies. my current obsessions with watercolors and drawing and sketching have been taking me away from other things in life, even though they are as equally important. but in defense, i neglected my drawing and painting for many more years than i’ve neglected writing — which i do everyday, at work or play — and i suppose it just got fed up and stuck me with a needle called oi, what the fuck are you doing?

long name, innit?

so here i am, doing what the fuck with all my watercolors and sketchbooks and pencils and myriads of art supplies. i joined a meetup group that gathers once a month to sketch in and around central park — weather-permitting — and share sketches without a lot of pressure, but lots of kind encouragement and exchange of ideas, tips, and techniques.

i’d forgotten how much i’ve missed drawing and painting.

so forgive me for the silence, for all three of you who care to visit. if you like, here’s my flickr. and if you’re braver than that, here’s where all my work gets put up.
