As mentioned in the last Saturday blog, I’m posting these as separate weekly blog posts now. And yes, I’m cheating, because this is from a week ago Sunday, but oh well. Done with markers, and the reference is from last fall during his book tour. (Fuller explanation of what...

I’m posting my favorite of the previous week’s Noah’s Archipelago comics each Saturday. This week was Thorsen Family Spring Cleaning, for everyone except Valerie, which is of course too little to do anything but cause more mess… in this case, on Ruth’s U2 records… wonder why they might have...

It’s officially iguana weather: So that kinda sucks, lol… I was upstairs doing a bit of sorting in the clutter/disaster zone of a spare room to get it into order and after a couple hours noticed that it felt crazy hot in there versus when I started. I have...

Saw one of those Facebook “suggested for you” things which was some lame TedX talk by some woman whining that when men cheer for a sports team that’s cool but when females do shit like build a shrine to Harry Styles’ vomit it’s “hysterical” (and apparently that word alone...

Popped into the beginners’ printmaking drop in at Ladysmith Arts today and made a few Ricky B. Rat monotypes. All of these have at least 2 layers if not 3; backgrounds first, then Ricky on top. I used ghost prints as well as the usual first pull. The paper...

Well, now that the show’s opening tonight is over, I figure I’m good to post a pic of my new painting that’s in the Cowichan Valley Arts Council’s Fine Arts Show 2023. “Teen Dream #1″ 2023 24×30” Mixed media on canvas (acrylic paint, gel texture medium, acrylic ink on...

I’m posting my favorite of the previous week’s Noah’s Archipelago comics each Saturday. This week Noah was working in his garden and Ursula was asking him about the bees (minus the birds), but also it was time for the long-awaited U2 Vegas residency tickets to go on sale and...
