Dinosaur Attacks Whiteboard



My new cubicle came with a whiteboard and some dry-erase markers. I managed to hold out for about a week before I started using it for extracurricular drawing.

Spider sculpture in City Park



I can't believe I've lived in New Orleans for this long without ever having been to the sculpture garden in City Park. I spent a couple of hours wandering around there this morning and would have done a bit more drawing had I not been driven out by the punishing heat. I'll be back for sure.

Sally Timms



Here's another in my ongoing series entitled "Portraits of Middle Aged Musicians With Cult Followings Who Would Be More Famous Than U2 If There Was Any Justice In This World" (see also, Howe Gelb). This is Sally Timms from the Mekons, one of my favorite bands ever. Anyone who likes rock music, has a pair of functioning ears, and has never heard Fear and Whiskey or Honky Tonkin' should do themselves a favor and purchase both of these albums as soon as possible.
