Inspired by Ciril Jazbec's beautiful portrait of a girl fishing in Uummannaq , Greenland. I expanded a bit and see the explorer in her.

This started as a portrait of my brother but soon after starting, I realized it was going to work. So I went for a brain storming drawing instead.

Sometimes you just need to play and feel like a kid again and see what happens.

There are some things that are best left unsaid if nothing else will sprout from it. But it's nice to take a new meaning and make it your own. Happy Thursday!

I drew this in exchange for a lovely library lamp. For inspiration I went through the owner's Pinterest and was happy to learn of his eclectic taste but most of all to discover the history of plague doctors who wore crow masks. Took a few tries to execute a chola plague doctor but I feel this is a decent launching point. Will revisit the theme in the future.

This is a failed attempt and I wasn't going to post it. However, I had to remind myself that part of the purpose of this project is to not stop the process because a drawing doesn't come out perfect or in the way I envisioned. The point is to accept things that I produce and allowing them to exist at least in documentation here if nothing else. So I'm letting this drawing go and thinking upward and onward.

Started thinking about nurture versus nature and emotions versus logic. Sometimes it feels like we push one out of the way in order to attain an intangible desire.

I got this idea for a portrait with peppers stuffed in someone's mouth while riding the train yesterday and starting off into space. Only now while browsing did I realize it's reminiscent (but not really) of Matthew Barney's Cremaster. It's interesting how most ideas are not original at all. We share a collective memory of a collective life.

A minimalist drawing sprouted a pig and a brain. I'd like to say I know why. In any case, happy Friday!
