At the Art Sale…It’s Crowded, a photo by 9567 on Flickr.
I realized I haven’t posted for some time. I wanted to let people know I’m alright despite the necessity of my energy being directed to less than positive things.
Anyway above is a drawing from a moment I was able to get away and do what I love to do.

Comment by Personal Concerns September 20, 2012 @ 4:45 amThe ones of his kind do appear snooty from afar, and the moment one tries breaking the ice with them, they suddenly become snootier all the more!
Comment by Personal Concerns September 20, 2012 @ 4:47 amVery perceptive!!
Comment by Allen Capoferri September 20, 2012 @ 5:36 pmwho is he?
Comment by Fiona.q September 20, 2012 @ 6:25 amHe was at a stand selling what I believe were prints of art. Was he the artist? I don’t know.
Comment by Allen Capoferri September 20, 2012 @ 5:09 pmSnooty to look at and snootier when actually approached…I am sure about him!

I just checked into the commenting problem you were having. I fixed it.

Comment by Allen Capoferri September 22, 2012 @ 6:06 pmA great drawing. Of course you had to draw him in profile, how could he otherwise have been depicted? He looks a little lazy, but strong on opinions. Those that don’t easily change, no matter what… As always you have been able to reveal the characteristics in a simple but great way.
Comment by munchow September 23, 2012 @ 9:23 amThank you. As usual your very adept at describing those character traits in my designs! I’m finding more and more these traits are prevalent in the people I’m coming into contact with where I’m living now.
Comment by Allen Capoferri September 24, 2012 @ 3:33 pmWell, I would say you meet quite some characters then…
Comment by munchow September 24, 2012 @ 5:23 pmI can say that’s definitely true!

Comment by Allen Capoferri November 17, 2012 @ 6:42 pmI always feel pretentious when I try to comment on art, but I know how it makes me feel. All of your sketches relax me, as if there is a beautiful calm in the everyday creatures we come across, both human and animal. I am so glad I found your site. Wonderful work.
Comment by Michael T. dadicusgrinch.wordpress.com February 12, 2013 @ 2:24 amThank you, Michael. I also find it difficult talking about art. But you did wonderfully, I love your writing style.
Comment by Allen Capoferri February 12, 2013 @ 8:14 pmBy the way, I’ve been meaning to say…I noticed you’re from the area of the country I lived before moving to California.
Thanks again, Caitlin!
