One More Month Done...

...in an attempt to shore up

all by summer Illinois sketches and zen drawings

by

the time we leave for Arizona this Saturday.

By the looks of it...

I think I just might succeed!!!

:)

Some More Random Illinois Art...

of events documented in my Illlinois Sketchbook...

eating out....

the closing ceremonies of the 2012 Olympics...

...even celebrating with Inboden's award winning Bratwurst.

Squeezing in a recent fashion illo on an old orchard page...

 

...and finishing up with a bit of zen calendar art...

...inspired by whatever catches my fancy at the moment.

My goal is to completely update

my blog

with all my past and present Illinois sketches and drawings

before we head back to the great southwest

this Saturday.

Always good to have a goal...better still to reach it!

are those frightful things you see

when you take your eyes off your goal."

Some More Telly Sketches...

"What do drawings mean to me?

I really don't know.

The activity absorbs me.

I forget everything else

in a way

that

I don't think happens with any other activity..."

 ~John Berger

Zen Play...

...fidding and diddling with some

new pattern options

while watching the telly...

and filling in some blank spaces in my

Zen calendar sketchbook.
