I want to ride my bicycle

Just finished these guys last night. They're a father/son duo, and they bike across the country just for kicks.

Be Mine

I whipped up a homemade valentine this year for the wife (scoreboard!) that included this little diddy:

"I'm sure there were a lot of guys
that coulda brought you joy...
but out of all the dudes around,
you picked this tall white boy!"

Gold. Solid gold.

Steve Johnson Advertising

Well, Steve Johnson (my uncle) is finally online -- he's one of the most artistically talented men I know, and I'm glad to have helped him establish a presence on the web. If you want to see an example of a very talented muralist & sign painter, go check him out.



My uncle Steve was one of the primary influences in my early interest of art -- he'd draw pictures for me to color & got me all kinds of art stuff for birthdays & Christmases. I guess it could be said I owe a lot of what I am today to him.

Illustration Friday: BLANKET

Weren't dryer-warmed blankets the best?!

When we were kids, Mom used to put our towels in the dryer while we were in the tub so they'd be all toasty-warm when we got out. Same principle. I'd do it now, but the shower's upstairs and the dryer's in the basement.... I don't think our neighbors would appreciate all the nude towel-fetching.

That reminds me -- I need to get some blinds.
