Some more sketches

These are sketches from various locations.






This is a pier/ building I was on in a dream. It stood out alone in the middle of an ocean. Below it is a computer rendering I created.





This is a pool on the cruise ship I took around Italy last year.

Terminal Illness

I like to take advantage of the waiting I have to do in the airport or on an airplane. Here are some sketches from my travel sketchbook.

Back in the Water

Back to the gym for a swim. I want to form a habit of going. It really doesn't take a long time, and honestly I feel so much better afterwards. I am thinking of different things to paint. I cannot seem to come with a definitive idea.

Advice

"We should be especially careful in giving advice that we would not think of following ourselves." - Some random quote I found online

In giving some advice today, I realized that I, myself need to be following it. Yesterday morning, I laid in bed wishing my headache to go away. Staring at the ceiling, I began replaying this past year through my mind. What progress have I made in a year? Well, none. Its a bad answer, but its the honest one. I am terrible when it comes to discipline lately. Today, I cleaned the house, cleared out my workspace in the garage (and even painted a bit), and I went swimming at the gym. Will I be able to keep to the plan tomorrow. I guess that remains to be seen.

Here is a list of things to complete:

- Paint/ Draw (there is no deadline, I just need to do it more often)
- Rotate my tires, change my oil, and wash the Mini (by next weekend)
- Repair my carb and get my 442 running (by Feb)
- Put my 2nd shelf up in my room (by Dec)
- Paint Johnna's phone case (by XMas)
- Finish painting my cabinet thing for my shot glasses (by Jan)
