sketchy: love and wishes (day 10)
finished this bit of tape fun late last night. it was pretty challenging to draw something interesting (and legible!) in the narrow bits. not sure it's the most successful experiment, but it was a good exercise.

deets within:

• love these wishbones (yes, they're from various dinners...nom nom nom, and yes, i collect odd bits--bones, bugs, and other detritus).
• another love--odd little rocks with weathered pockets. i've gotta few that i've started to use as inkwells. next time i'm at the beach, i'll have to pocket a few more...
• wild iris seed pods from our front yard. i've mentioned how much i love my home/yard, right?
• yep, more oaktown love--oakland harbor and alameda--mainly based on sketches from the oakland/alameda/sf ferry.
• random faces and such (was a bit tired and free-doodling).
• narrow little slice/view of from my studio of our yard and beyond: neighbor's weathervane (reimagined), lemon tree, flowers in bloom, and toki.

funny how home and such have made such an impact on me. it's been over a year, and i still have a touch of awe when i take it all in. it's hard to imagine loving a place more. and yet, it's just a thing, a collection of objects, a fleeting bit of dirt. but i do love it--something inside me exhales a bit, as this place gets deeper and deeper under my skin.
