Danielson VS. Where The Wild Things Are SOUNDTRACK

Have you ever noticed that the soundtrack to

WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE

and

DANIELSON music

sound the same!!!??

(...somewhat makes you do a

check-the-soundtrack-credits-for-Danielson scan!)

Wine at The Nines

while i was waiting at Table 3 at

THE NINES fund raiser in August,

i sketched a bit...

another July vacation sketch

our Art Museum visit last Sunday...

...PLUS....last Sunday afternoon we (w/ b & i) went

to the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art for FREE!

I enjoyed Joe Sacco's Safe Around Gorazde graphic,

historical novel ink panels;

Xiaoze Xie's Amplified Moments paintings,

and all the newly added Japanese Ink & Brush

art (especially the Chutes and Ladders [ E-sugoroku ] games

and ink drawings!

...dress rehearsal sketch 2.

i picked this guy out of the 300 voice choir to sketch!

dress rehearsal sketch 1

While we (b, i & d) were hearing/watching Mikaela

during the rehearsal of the Eugene Symphony's

'A Lincoln Portrait' - i sketched this...

(harps are hard to sketch, while

people are filing in...!...)

D.L. Love 'Obit Illy'

Another REGISTER GUARD

obituaries illustration was drawn of

David 'Dave' Lee Love.

PLEASE know that these are drawn with the intent

to honor the reposed and their full lives.

Please forgive me if it offends anyone,

I am in no way ridiculing the reposed.

I am artistically inspired by their lives and accomplishments,

so i wanted to illustrate them.

Nothing macabre, no nefarious reason, i'm

drawn to people who have had noted presence in life.

loudQUIETloud

I just saw loudQUIETloud on HULU.

A great documentary about the PIXIES;

'a band that plays together well

BUT doesn't stay together well.'

(my quote)

Left-overs for ADELAIDE....

i had to 'label' the plate of scraps for Adelaide, our

12+ year old Australian/English

Shepherd (half civil, half convict) @ our

'Diety Acknowledge Center' kitchen.

Ronald Searle's The Compleet Molesworth

I found a treasure

( and when one means treasure,

you find it unexpected, glimmering, rewarding and

[practically] free ) at St. Vincent de Paul's on Seneca, RONALD SEARLE'S

THE COMPLEET MOLESWORTH!

A booked stuffed with Searle's great

pen and ink creations!

SEX, MOM & GOD

I guess this's, partially, why i didn't post any October blogettes

(but the kids and i got lotsa candy last Monday! - and i did

get the anniversary Super Deluxe Edition of

U2's ACHTUNG BABY!.)...

BUT i'm mainly posting about another GREAT book i read -

SEX, MOM and GOD by FRANK SCHAEFFER.

Why did i like it... . . he pulls no punches, is honest

(many will say yea, yea, that's Frank Schaeffer for ya'), great stories

of his dad FRANCES SCHAEFFER and mom EDITH SCHAFFER

(revealing behind the curtain stories that will blush/rattle a baptist) and comes

to the conclusion - all that matters is love (for God, family,

neighbor and yourself....J.O.Y. - 'let go and let God').

KAMPUNG BOY

I just got done reading a graphic novel

called KAMPUNG BOY, by

the Malaysian artist 'LAT'.

Great ink work, style, story and a

free trip to a Malaysian 'KAMPUNG!'
