Half drawn

Half way through my current sketchbook. If all goes well it will be completed in about a month, but realistically, three months.

Raspberry Pie

Baking up some fun with my new raspberry Pi 3.  The plan is to build a new Game Center for the boys. RetroPie looks pretty cool, thought it would be fun to play some old games and learn a little about Linux and hardware.

Cartography

My boys are really into drawing maps. I owe this to their obsessive viewing of geography songs on kids learning tube.

Code Gremlins squashed

After months of procrastination I have finally resolved some major errors in the code for this site. These gremlins prevented me from posting from my phone. Now liberated, I suddenly I find myself with the awesome power of being able to post while I’m away from my desk. I’m so happy. I should be able to update the archive with less trouble and far more frequently than in the past.

BAMPFA

Took the kids to the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive and randomly stubbled into the Fisher Family Art Lab.  Community drawing party awesomeness! Very cool.  Always prepared I pulled out our sketchbooks and went at it.  The highlight was the giant box of crazy stamp pads.  The boys loved that.

Snowy Peak

If I can’t go to the mountains then the mountains will come to me.  Painted this snowy landscape to remind myself that places outside of the office exist.

Halloween costumes 2016

Halloween has come and gone. The boys decided we all go as scary things this year so I was a zombie with a harpoon through his heart and they were the Grim reaper, a Red Devin and a Skeleton. Lot of fun.

It rained pretty good this year so I set up a bunch of blacklights and set about drawing all over myself with highlighters.

Forgotten painting

Forgot about this painting. I need to remember to take some good archive pics of it one of these days.

Skeleton costume

Rudie wants to be a skeleton for Halloween. Years of anatomy and figure drawing have prepared me for this moment.
