More Arty Goodness

Please keep in mind, as I post the daily drawings, that these are not intended to be great works of art. They are, quite literally, daily drawings I've assigned myself and sometimes are the result of just a couple of minutes of doodling. Sometimes I have to stop drawing to respond to "MOMMY, I NEED TO GO POTTY!" and never get back to it. So I move on to the next one. I'm trying to keep it fun and interesting and have it be a combination of elaborate doodles and small drawings from observation, just to try to get some of the finesse back into my draughtsmanship. The paper I'm using is only about 3" x 5". I only have one more to make a full week of drawings. Then I might pause, and I've bought paper for a more ambitious 30-day project.

I have also made a little progress on the Carousel painting, though I still can't seem to get the color right in the photo...

Another fun thing I'll post photos of is the set of 36" x 47" steel flat file cabinets I scored for a song on Craigslist. I'm hoping to paint them this weekend and get them in the studio, to give many many too-long rolled up paintings a breath of fresh air and a chance to be stored flat.
