I don’t really like shopping . . . but as Lesley does, it leaves me some time to sit around sketching. When did shopping become a pastime rather than simply a time-consuming necessity? I want to go out and buy what I’ve gone for and then return to a space where I can:
play it
wear it
eat it
or drink it (delete as applicable)
Fame? Well not really… But nice to see your own work in print . . . Even if you don’t understand the article that you are illustrating . . . .
The internet is great for many reasons but there is nothing as good as seeing your work in print. This was featured in an article about Baer who designed the book and commissioned my drawings.
I love beer! end of post.
Saw Donatello’s stunning sculpture in Florence on Wido’s recommendation.
On a lighter note…. I love Italian street names . . still puzzling over ‘Via Stan il pescatore’
The problem is that after a gig I’m always full of adrenalin. So whereas Lesley, who has inevitably driven, is tired and ready for bed, I end up having a ‘nightcap’ –(UK euphemism for YET another drink) -which is often when I draw as well. So after a night at Stefano’s …this was inevitable. I think this is the first time I have actually fallen asleep whilst drawing. There is no other way to explain the curved rectangular appendage which I have a added to a reasonable (though far from perfect . . . . .) image . . . . . Cheers!
