For those who have been wondering if I fell off the end of the earth, unfortunately for many weeks I was teleported to another dimension called Really Hard Work. Not just the brain-drain kind of hard work, but also the kind that completely wears you out by the end of the day.
I was able to sustain my energy by ingesting vast amounts of red licorice, coffee and diet coke. But at the end of each day, I didn’t feel like writing blogs or making art — all I wanted to do was come home and fall asleep playing Plants versus Zombies on the sofa. And since I sort of lost my sense of humor for a while, it’s probably better I didn’t write much.
Now that I’m getting back into the blogging mood, here are more pages from my sketchbook. While in Japan, we visited a high school, and I got a chance to draw the girls in music class. The school has a blue uniform that sort of looks like gym suits and looks very comfortable. I wouldn’t mind wearing a uniform — It would save having to decide what to wear every morning!

Glad to hear from you again! And good luck with the spring cleaning!
Thanks Karen, it feels really good to get more organized. Still a lot to do, but we’ve made great progress.
Sorry you are feeling lost….
Among other things, I like the way you draw shoes!
I do seem to have a fascination with drawing shoes. I find when I’m drawing in public, people don’t mind me staring at their feet the same way as if I were staring at their face.
Welcome back! I missed you!!
