TIMES – THEY ARE A CHANGIN’




I graduated. GRAD. U. ATED. Apparently I am an artist with real “cred” now. Ta Da. ‘Nuff said.



AT LEAST ACCORDING TO "WHAT SVU CHARACTER ARE YOU"
I AM.


Speaking of which, are these programs really accurate?:
SHE'S LIKE THE WIND....




Of course, I cannot collect my diploma until I pay my CASH DEBT to University. So I graduated, but am technically $1500 from a diploma (not to mention the $100,000 school loans that will be rolling in). YAY FOR MAJORING IN ART!





Did I mention I graduated with a 4.0/4.0





GIMME A GATLIN GUN

GATLINBURG’S “ART FOR GOD”

Behind Wood Whittler’s.

I was invited and am now an active member in an artist’s co-op in Gatlinburg, Tennessee! As odd as that sounds (seeing how I stay in This Here Toledo), I am honored and humbled. I have sent a LOT of my studies of the different characters I have come to know through significant stories. Mostly they are characters who are undergoing intense transitions (Mary The Madeline, Mary The Mom, Simeon The Guy, etc.) I was also asked to include… BUNNIES. Hey – we are ALL God’s creatures, you  know.
DID I MENTION "BEHIND WOOD WHITTLERS"?
I spent weeks gathering prints and product and shipping it down to Tennessee. And… I am still broke. But happy – as they say.
I AM ON A WALL.


I AM ON A RACK.



REMEMBER - ALWAYS USE A FANCY FRAME!



I FOLDED THEM MYSELF - I AM HUMBLE


BUY THIS STUFF


LOOK AT THAT FRAME!



THESE HERE TOLEDO
I figured the best way to return to the blogosphere is to give you a current tour of These Here Toledo - #8 on the list of the 12 most MISERABLE places to live. Don't believe me?

Not that the place has changed, mind you – it’s just... well...


WELCOME TO THE CITY'S BACK ALLEY CHILDREN'S DISCOVERY CENTER!



I WONDER IF SUSIE DROPPED THE KIDS OFF AT
THE CHILDREN'S DISCOVERY CENTER?


SUSIE'S FAKE FRENCH MANICURE COMING UNGLUED
UNDER THE DOOR OF A RESTROOM.

LICENSE PLATE ADVICE: YOLO!




A RATHER PROGRESSIVE CHURCH IF YOU ASK ME...



SOMEONE STOLE THE BENCH PART OF THE BENCH.
THIS IS WHY THESE HERE TOLEDO CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS.






THE PROJECTS OF STUDIO566

And now - to catch up all of the minions of Studio566:

I TOOK A WILD SQUIRREL TO THE VET
TO BE EUTHANIZED. HE WAS IN VERY BAD SHAPE.
I CRIED AND THE VET THOUGHT I WAS NUTS.



MY TRIBUTE TO SAID SQUIRREL.



CRONE STUDY
SHE IS GRAPHITE PENCIL - THE REST IS COMPUTER GRAPHICS



MURRAY TRIBUTE
ANOTHER CREATURE NOW AT PLAY IN THE COSMOS

WHEN PEOPLE DREAM ABOUT ME, THEY GIVE ME DOGS AND FANCY FOOTSTOOLS.
(AND INSPIRATION FOR A DRAWING)
