What we saw on our walk at our favorite park last evening. Click to read the whole list, including the bit about "the cutest leetle wings". I love it.

Every day in May: twenty-eight

Day 28: drawn in crayon on the placemat at Jimmy's Pizza. Angela realized halfway there that a caterpillar was crawling on her arm and had come along for the ride. As soon as we got to Jimmy's, she ran through the rain to find him a leaf.


Every day in May: twenty-seven

How to draw Trogdor (according to Strong Bad)

  1. Draw an S.
  2. Draw a more different S.
  3. Close it up real good at the top for his head.
  4. Using consummate V's, give him teeth, spinities, and angry eyebrows.
  5. You can add smoke or fire.
  6. And maybe add some wings, you know, if he's a wing-a-ling dragon.
  7. Put one of those beefy arms back on him for good measure.
  8. Name him TROGDOR the BURNiNATOR.
  9. Add majestic lines... for majesty.

This is was my hair yesterday.... The humidity turned it into a mix of Diana Ross with a healthy touch of Fraggle. Ignore the evil eyes.

Every day in May: eighteen

Originally the beginning of sketches from Peter's ball game this morning, but rain and drawing on the iPad don't mix (too slippery). I kept the colors and turned it into the start of EDiM challenge "Draw your left hand."
