Skips A Beat (Over You)


Hello dudes and dudettes. Art Update-So I've been working here and there on my Milhouse drawing. Nailed the outline and layout of everything. The other night I started dropping some colour into it. Made some rather unpleasant mistakes and currently, am scrapping it for now. I dropped the colour a LITTLE too thick for the picture. Too much all at once. Not happy with it at all. Next attempt (when I get the chance) I'm going much lighter. For now, I'm putting the drawing on the side and plan on working hard on Nick's album (which I've been saying for weeks and weeks and weeks) Thankfully, he's freakin' patient. Has to be for all the different people we've played with over the years.

Oh, do I miss the nights of staying up real late and drawing or painting into the wee hours of the morning drinking bottle after bottle of Guinness and listening to beautiful music. But at the same time, I need to sleep at night. 6 a.m. comes too early, and even though I'm writing this at 11:19pm, I'm still sorta wired from the usual hectic day of work. No big deal. Nothing new. Speaking of art, you ever look outside in the fall and notice how unbelievably gorgeous the trees are lined with amazing bright colours? It's like a piece of art. Hell, it IS art. THAT's why I like Fall, folks. It's beautiful scenery all around. Don't get me wrong. Wisconsin has great scenery most of the year. Winter has it's moments. One time, Jill and I were driving back from her parent's house in Illinois, and she looks at me and says "hey that barn looks amazing can we stop and shoot some pics of it?" So of course we did. Sometimes even in our hectic days of work, we need to stop, and enjoy the scenery. Take it all in and breath.
Keep posted for new art. Hopefully in the near future.
