Best of the Bono Mouse sketchbook: week ending May 22, 2023
My favorite of this week’s Bono Mouse sketches: Done with a purple Pilot pen. I’m down to only 2 blank spreads in the book, so it’s almost time to start going through the spreads that only have a drawing on the one page to fill in all the blank...

Spring clean-ups, bees, and blooms
Well, I spent all day out in the garden yesterday and got a sunburn… I really should know better by now… really, I should… Guess I’m cancelling this week’s IPL face-zapping. And while I’m whining, I think I have a cracked filling. Guess I know what phone calls I...
Whole lotta art stuff going on this week
