Well, I did something today that I have not done in many years. I got out my pen and ink supplies and finished a pen and ink drawing I started a long time ago. I am anxious to get back to my oil painting work but I have a number of old pieces that I have been meaning to complete. That was quite an experience. I demonstrated part of the work on my latest Youtube and was so surprised the ink didn't run down my hand.
Pen and ink drawings are done sitting down but my Youtube set-up is vertical. I decided to give it a try and didn't have any problems. I'll never forget demonstrating pen and ink in my Hands on Art Appreciation class years ago. I didn't have the great computer set-up that came later so I taped a piece of paper on the black board and demonstrated that way. Of course, the ink ran down my arm which is embarrassing in front of fifty people.
I actually had fifty students at a time try pen and ink with ink wells on their desk. When someone accidentally dumped the ink well all over the desk and floor I realized I should give them tape to secure the well. Much to my surprise there would always be at least one student that would knock the well off even though it was taped down. So I wisely switched to a fine point sharpee and had them buy them, too.
Teaching can be quite an adventure, especially for people like me that try unusual approaches in a lecture room. Anyway, I don't have the finished drawing uploaded to my portfolio yet but I have included another one of my pen and ink drawings below. Check it out!

Life with the Word and Bird Man - Clyde Kessler
Clyde and I got a laugh out of the response to a joke I shared on Facebook. As I have mentioned before I do two things to keep my weight down and I got Clyde to do the same thing. We eat a balanced diet and we count calories. I saw such a cute joke with Miss Piggy about junk food that I had to share it.
I have an eating disorder. I am about to eat dis order of fries, dis order of wings, and dis order of nuggets.
Here is my friend's response.
Not you. Junk never passes your lips.
True, but I couldn't resist sharing this! So cute! Now, where did I put that snickers bar?
