Want to own a piece of original art by yours truly? Read on. Simply put: my friend and college classmate Amy B. has Stage 4 colon cancer, and has some serious financial needs. Most recently, she had to raise $3,500 in order to obtain a portable oxygen concentrator that her insurance would not pay for.... Continue Reading →
Archie, Cat Scout: #The100DayProject2019
Nine years ago today, a black-and-white cat -- he was actually a large kitten, but we didn't know that at the time -- leaped up onto our porch, saw me sitting there, and started to beat a retreat. "Oh, no, it's okay," I said, and he changed his mind and came on over to see... Continue Reading →
Lab Cats: #The100DayProject 2019
After going to night school (get it?) for some specialized training, the Night Cats have returned to offer their aid and assistance. And giant tools. Yes, they should be wearing safety goggles and hearing protection. The Night Cats and I would like to use this omission as an opportunity to remind everyone that they should... Continue Reading →
“Tacos Are My Life”: #The100DayProject2019
Observed at a major discount retailer: a woman with a gentle smile ambling up and down the party supplies aisle, selecting a variety of brightly colored plates, utensils, & c. Her two daughters --pre-teen or early teens -- wandered into the aisle. One wore a gold headband with a unicorn horn and a bright pink... Continue Reading →
The Manx!: #The100DayProject2019
Free Comic Book Day was on Saturday, May 4th this year; it's always fun when one nerd holiday coincides with Star Wars Day ("May the Fourth Be With You"), another popular nerd holiday. FCBD is hands-down one of my favorite days of the year, and I have no doubt that this is largely due to... Continue Reading →
Happy Birthday, Mr. B!: #The100DayProject2019
In September, 2019, Mr. B and I will have been married for 30 years. (If you're so inclined, pearls are the traditional gift for 30th anniversaries; diamonds are the modern gift. I'm kidding of course. We'd prefer kazoos.) In that time, he's come to learn that gifts from me for important occasions such as birthdays... Continue Reading →
The Best (Though Highly Inadvisable) Part of Baking Cookies: #The100DayProject2019
A few weeks ago, the folks at The 100 Day Project sent out an email with the subject line "You get to define success for yourself and your project," and I was like, "Yes. Yes, I do," and felt all "I am woman, hear me roar" about it, except then some days I end up... Continue Reading →
Glow In The Dark Things Are the Best Things: Day 22, #The100DayProject2019
Confession: I kind of have a ... thing ... about objects which glow in the dark. This fascination might have its roots in my childhood fear of the dark, but at heart, I just think GITD items are super-cool. I would paint my house in glow-in-the-dark paint if it were possible. Recently, the folks... Continue Reading →
The Sick Kit: Days 20 & 21, #The100DayProject2019
Some sort of stomach bug precluded me from doing a drawing yesterday, but it did afford me the chance to reflect on illnesses past. I was sick a lot as a child. (I am ill a lot as an adult, too, but that's a different story for a different day.) The common cold, ear infections,... Continue Reading →
Easter Bumper Cars: Days 17 & 18, #The100DayProject2019
I've always wanted to draw an Easter card featuring a panoramic view of a springtime-themed fair, or amusement park. I guess this is the first step. Save
