Where I Stand Sunday

Check last Sunday and this post would have the same photo of

my pseudo-walking with crutches.

Working on another pastel in the studio, but not finished.

While looking through my photos, I picked a theme to share for today.

These are older pieces.  I often practice portraiture with magazine photos

and royalty free, non-copyright sources.

"NY Times"

Where I Stand Sunday is an ongoing photo essay examining the different places I spend my life standing.
Too often we take for granted the everyday places we spend our lives walking on.
There are several others who also write this on Sunday, see sidebar.

F.A.C. on the A.C.E.O.

Friday afternoons can be boring around here, so last night I decided to play around with some felt pens and colored pencils. If you aren't aware, ACEO stands for Art Cards Editions and Originals. They are usually 2.5" x 3.5" - the same size as a sports card. Many artists make them, some sell them. I think I will try both. I chose a theme last night of Star Wars-ish women. Going that small is interesting. It's more than a sketch, it's a finished piece. Let me know what you think.
