Today is day 30, of the create every day (CED) challenge 2014 – where I draw or paint or create something and post it every day of the year.

Scott H. Biram’s new record is coming out next week, February 4.  So, I thought I would do a little homage to the dirty old one man band from Austin tonight.  His records are good – but man if you get a chance to see him live go do it.  Its powerful.  I got to see him while vacationing in Memphis back in November – good stuff.   So here you go.

State of the Union – Create Every Day 2014 – day 28

Category: telegraph office Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , | Leave a Comment

Today is day 28, of the create every day (CED) challenge 2014 – where I draw or paint or create something and post it every day of the year.

Tonight the president, in tradition gives the state of the Union address to Congress, and the world.  I tuned out.  My Anarcho-Libertarian tendencies have kicked into full force this year and Ive lost any interest that a centralized government is the answer to saving the republic.  Voting for the lesser of two evils, is still pretty evil.

So tonight, in honor of our “anti war – all transparent” president, a scene from the other side of the world.   –and I went back to painting roots and did something real painterly for this one.  I could spell out the “meaning” for you – but I think you the viewer, are smart enough to get it.

Feeling a bit more chipper today.  I watched about 3 minutes of the Grammy’s and turned it off, because the sounds out of the TV sound exactly what I envision is whats going on in my body… honky-tonk VS injustice all on vocoder.  So, here is a stupid comic.

Something Ridiculous – create every day challenge 2014 – day 21

Category: telegraph office Tags: , , , , , , | Leave a Comment

Today is day 21, of the create every day (CED) challenge 2014 – where I draw or paint or create something and post it every day of the year.  According to some – 21 day sof anything is a habit.  Either breaking one or making one.  Well today is a big day habit wise – I have successfully created and posted something every day for 21 days.  Some better than others, but thats not the point.

So I had fun doing little girl yesterday all Art Nouveau Style… so yours truly gets a similar treatment tonight.  Thinking about fleshing this all out into a family portrait sort of thing.  More on that later.

Category: Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

Today is day 20, of the create every day (CED) challenge 2014 – where I draw or paint or create something and post it every day of the year.

A bit under the weather tonight again – likely due to mountain cedar (juniper ash) allergies here in Texas but who knows.  I was feeling good enough to spend a bit more time on todays challenge.  I plan on working on it some more tonight into a full blown painting but I thought this was a good spot to stop for now for the challenge.  I think I need to use lil dude as a model a bit more, so I went for it today.  Ive had a fascination with Art Nouveau style stuff for the good part of a year so its nice to work on something in this theme.   Its a bit out of my comfort zone, which is always good for progress.

Category: telegraph office Tags: , , , , , , | Leave a Comment

Today is day 19, of the create every day (CED) challenge 2014 – where I draw or paint or create something and post it every day of the year.

A bit under the weather tonight – likely due to mountain cedar (juniper ash) allergies here in Texas.  Or the plague.  one of the two.  Either way I did not have a ton of time to work up something really awesome tonight.  I created something about how I feel about this tree, whom provides such sustenance for critters during harsh winter months when nothing bears fruit or is green – but deals such a terrible pollen that impacts a lot of us.  its nothing great and thats fine.  When I set out to do this I knew a few of these daily’s would be misses – but the point is to keep chugging along and do SOMETHING.  so here it is.

Today is day 17, in my create something every day challenge 2014.  – I draw or paint something and post it every day of the year.  I had no idea what to do tonight when Lynley suggested I draw my cousins dog.  Not one for pet pictures I wasnt super excited about it but then I thought – What if Rusty’s dog got loose?  I bet the dog would go to that shot bar in College Station and order up a whiskey.

Something just for fun – my Conway T-Pain Mix Tape – CED2014 day 16

Category: Uncategorized Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , | Leave a Comment

Today is day 16, in my create something every day challenge 2014.  – I draw or paint something and post it every day of the year.  So far, so good although my hands are starting to hurt.   The theme this month is “Past, Present, and Future”.  -and speaking of hands, I did not do a hand study tonight, back tomorrow likely with that.

Tonight I did something ridiculous.  I guess its just, well – my kind of night.  (ouch, sorry).  I found something in my truck, while going down a dirt road, headed to a rural location, near a body of water, with a six pack of beer, after I had my catfish dinner – and here it is.  The infamous T-Pain / Conway mix tape.

T-Pain / Conway mix tape.

winner winner, catfish dinner T-Pain / Conway mix tape.

Obviously this is a joke.  the thought of such a tape is pure absurd.  But if popular country music in 2013 has anything to day about it – this is the American Dream.  NOTE TO NEW VIEWERS – this is NOT a critique of country music.  I love all sorts of music.  I really dont like whats coming out on modern country radio though and this is a spoof on that.   OK back to your auto-tune and regularly scheduled programming.
