Day 13 - Making Headlines

Day 13

Use the front page of a newspaper or cover of a magazine as materials or source of inspiration today.


 Stargazing Stinkbug

My inspiration came from the following National Geographic cover which I happened to observe in a Safeway supermarket:


Materials: Paper, glue, watercolor paint, colored card stock, paper board, toothpicks, sharpie marker
There are two bug constellations in the sky, a grub on the left and a beetle on the right.


The additional toothpick is my Dad's contribution
(to be fair, he also suggested the extension on the tripod)

The Heian Book Report

I've started re-reading my Heian-era Japanese Literature books (all English translations) and thought I'd write a few thoughts about each while it's fresh in my mind. I started with Hojoki and Tsurezuregusa . So, this is just my announcement, you can read a bit more about my  Heian Obsession here  and I will post all of the book reports to this page .

Day 6 - Lizard

  The drawing of this lizard was interrupted by errands today but luckily I remembered to come back to it. The hubs walked in while I was working on it and said " ugh " (and actually flicked out his tongue much like a lizard)...which I suppose means that it looks real enough ;) ~January 6, 2022~ The Gallery for this Draw Something ( anything! ) Daily Challenge can be seen   HERE

Maceo

Last night I lost my beloved Maceo.  I've had him since he was six weeks old and he just turned 17 on April 1st.  I miss him dearly already. Rest well sweet boy.
