A Post Election Thought

I love a good comedian (who doesn't?), but when they start riffing about politics, or any subject that you understand better than most, you can see the problem with thinking in caricatures.

That's one of the problems with our news outlets. Journalists create caricatures, rather than accurate pictures, of reality. People get angry about stories they believe, but have very little connection with reality.

Random Thought

Regular soy sauce and reduced sodium soy sauce taste the same to me.

Am I the only one?

Cardinal in the Winter

I just finished up another piece. This one is an 8" x 8" painting I call, "Cardinal in Winter."

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm finally getting into "The Last of Us."

Christmas ALREADY?

Getting a jump on Christmas.

Here's a Christmas card I may have finished.

(knowing when I'm finished with a piece can be the hardest part of a project for me)

Random Excellent Work Music

Looking for some music?

I work at a desk all day, so I have the opportunity to listen to a lot of music during the day. Here is some of the good stuff I've been checking out lately.

The Distillers - Love is Paranoid

Energetic, straight forward punk. I could listen to this track 100 times in a row.

Leftfield - Original

Electronic music from 1995. It doesn't sound dated to me. I just like this song.

David Bowie - Love is Lost

This is one of Bowie's newer tunes - from 2013. A chill song with a great organ sound, sung in the way only Bowie could.

The Kills - Siberian Nights

This is from The Kills newest album, Ash & Ice, which I definitely recommend. Love the bass - love the drums. This song is spare, with a great groove.

Gotta run!

Tiny Dog on a Porch

Finished up a piece for a friend o' mine. I used my creative license with the colors. Just for fun.

Cats are Persistent

My cat has been making space noises outside the bedroom door for 15 minutes.

What a jerk.
