I've been bad...

...about making time for painting lately, and when I do finally get out, I'm faced with more tossers than keepers. Sheesh! and my last post was so full of promise... To at least make a vain attempt to keep my eyes and brush hand from completely rusting over, I've been trying to get in an occasional lunchtime sketch in my mini watercolor Moleskiene. So here's some not so recent stuff. Oh yeah, for the 5 of you out there who might be following this, I think I got the comment thingy working. Fire away!

Jimmy, please please please get Mike to go painting with you in the mornings again! Looking at your work is inspiring me to get Mike inspired -- does that make any sense? Your stuff is beautiful, you should definitely show your stuff again somewhere soon.

Ian - what would it take to get you back here? I've heard that you're a new "Rockstar" congrats!

Alex - ya don't have to twist MY arm, I'll drag him out when you guys get back from Italy. His creativity and output should be at tsunami force!

Hello Albert and Pablo! Glad you found your way here, and thanks for the comments. BTW BOTH of you shame me with your watercolor skills, I'm humbled. I definitely need more practice : )
