Notes
Jane Bewick (A). ‘A view of Cherryburn – T.B. (mounted on the three-legged stool) & his companions making a snowman, which stood till it became a mass of ice to the great terror of sundry old women one of whom ran back to the house to tell what an “awsome [sic] sight she had seen”. Here is the little window at the Bedhead [see Memoir page 10] – the stout well dressed boy is Willy Johnson, who lived with his mother Barbara Johnson in the Hamlet below [ie Eltringham]. He died a fat good-tempered old man at Prudhoe where he farmed many years – the ragged lad is Joe: Liddell son of Anthony Liddell mentioned in the memoir.’ ‘Building a snowman at Cherryburn, Bewick’s birthplace. Bewick himself is portrayed on the stool.’ (Bain 1978 page 17.) Attributed to TB’s Mature Phase by Bain (1978 p25). But Chatto (London Library MS.f.25) and Bain 1981 attribute the watercolour transfer drawing (at the British Museum) to Robert Johnson. See Jenny Uglow Nature’s Engraver 2006 for a discussion of ‘Esto Perpetua’ and Diana Donald (2013) for the suggestion that the figure of the snowman may be a caricature of the unpopular William Pitt (in a 2012 draft, in Ch 3 p.18 and notes 120 & 121).

Tomorrow I'm off to the East Coast for the Annual General Meeting of the American Society for the Alexander Technique. I'll still be drawing every day but I don't know how frequently I'll be able to post.
Today's Comment
This is a past self-portrait from my Daily Portrait Project, in which I made a non-photographic image of myself every day for three years, from 3/15/07 to 3/15/10. Soon they'll all be loaded on flickr, you can find them in this set: www.flickr.com/photos/juliakay/sets/72157619599543783/
The first year of the project is now available as a book: www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2418516
Volumes II and III coming soon...
Sooo... I was tagged by three lovely ladies a bit over a week ago (Anna~Karin, Joanne, and Gosia) and I'm only now getting to writing 16 things about myself.
I'll try to make it interesting ;)
1. I'm left-handed and proud of it!
2. At age 8 I decided I wanted to be an Olympic gymnast. When that didn't pan out, I joined a college acrobatics team at age 10. I was a performing acrobat until age 16.
3. As an acrobat, I got to miss at least a month of school a year when 'on tour'. Perfect since I hated being in school, and LOVED to travel.
4. I've gotten three learner's permits, but never tried for my driver's license... that's a resolution for this year. Better 10 years late than never, right?
5. When I was 17 I dropped out of high school and started producing surrealistic (sometimes disturbing) acrylic paintings almost non-stop.
6. I was diagnosed with Bipolar II Disorder several years later (which probably explains fact #5).
7. I did my senior year of high school in 3 weeks via a home-study program (I procrastinated so long that I finished high school a week before going to college...oops).
8. I attended a prestigious art college for just over a month (see fact #5).
9. I have an obsession with eye makeup! I'm always searching for an unusual pigment of eyeshadow to add to my huge stash. I'm serious.
10. I've been wearing eye makeup nearly every day since I was eight years old. Currently my daily routine includes 7-10 shades of eyeshadow, liquid eye-liner, and, of course, blackest black mascara!
11. I started making my own jewelry so I could be sure that no one else could possibly wear the same thing as me.
12. I wear Klewism jewelry single day, all the time- except when I'm swimming, in the shower, or sleeping.
13. I listen to audiobooks all the time. Especially when I'm painting or making jewelry.
14. I love animals- cats! dogs! lemurs! sheep! llamas! hedgehogs! lions! tigers! & bears! OH MY...
15. I'm a night person: I get a burst of energy around 10 pm that lasts until about 4 am.
16. I love people, but I am completely content to be alone for long periods of time- I have an abundant capacity for self-amusement :p

This is part of my Daily Portrait Project, which can be viewed in it's entirety at studiojuliakay.com/portraitproject.
It's also part of series within the project, which I call left-hand-blind (LHB), in which I draw with my eyes closed and my non-dominant hand. I do open my eyes and use whichever hands I feel like for adding color.

The train to London was very crowded and I had to stand most of the way. A man sitting next to me was making notes. He used a Scheaffer fountain pen and is left-handed. He was writing upside down, a trait of some left-handers (including Prince William) It is done to avoid smudging the work but is an awkwardness which should be discouraged. My mother and my wife were left-handed as is my eldest grand daughter, they all avoided developing this style.
Unlike most turnstiles, the Metro in Barcelona expects you to be lefthanded, or at least be ready to have your ticket in your left hand. This comes as a surprise to most visitors or people who, like me, hardly use the Metro.
Every day I take the Metro I see the same scene: a tourist inserts the ticket with his/her right hand and watches in frustration how the turnstile remains locked, until the moment a local shouts that the unlocked turnstile is the one on his/her right. I'd really like to meet the engineer who designed this device. (In fact, I'm quite sure that this comes as as surprise even for lefthanded people!)
Note the 3 arrows (white, orange and black) trying to indicate the poor user that this is a turnstile unilke any other.
Many turnstiles have to be marked especially in order to make people aware of the uniqueness of this design.
Al contrario que la mayoría de barreras de metro, las del metro de Barcelona están diseñadas para que el usuario introduzca el ticket con la mano izquierda. Esto siempre sorprende a los visitantes y a la gente que, como yo, rara vez usa el metro.
Cada vez que uso el metro presencio la misma escena: un turista mete el billete con su mano derecha en la máquina de la barrera y observa, atónito, como la barrera permanece cerrada; el desconcierto dura hasta que un local le grita que la barrera que se ha abierto es la de su derecha. De verdad que me encantaría conocer en persona al ingeniero que diseñó esta máquina.
(De hecho, sospecho que esto es una incómoda sorpresa incluso para los usuarios zurdos).
Muchas de las barreras han tenido que recibir indicaciones especiales para que los usuarios sean conscientes de la brillantez de este diseño.
I wonder why everybody stopped using ink-pens.?!
I´m lefthanded and with todays quick drying ink it´s even possible for me to write with these old pens ( i have to wait a few seconds before it dries, but who´s in a hurry..)
Try it if you have the possibility, because it´s a totally nice feeling when writing with these pens!!

Playing right-handed, Ronnie playing for a red ball.
Ronnie is one of a handful of professional players who are just as good playing left or right handed.
This is my '93 Alvarez Commemorative guitar.
I bought brand new in 1993, in a Mexico City store. It is converted for left-handed playing.
This was my first serious guitar; it is still my favourite to this day.
This simple photo doesn't seem to say much, but it actually tells a lot about me:
-I'm left-handed, and hopelessly so. If I I ever break my left arm, I'll either starve, or shovel food in with the fingers of my right hand, with which I can barely hold a fork without extreme awkwardness. That means I would have to stop eating cereal and milk (my favorite!) and that would be tragic. Maybe I could learn to drink my cereal out of a mug.
-I always write with a pencil, because everything needs to be just so, and that requires the ability to erase. A lot. I also need a sharp point all the time, thus the need for a mechanical pencil. And it has to be soft lead.
-I love these quad-ruled composition books. That little problem with everything being just so? The grid on this paper helps me keep things nice and straight and neat.
-That's my aquarium in the background. It relaxes me and takes the edge off my constant anxiety. I need to rearrange my office so I can see the tank while I work, instead of having it behind me.
I'm trying to lighten up. Really, I am!

Back problems have me using my left hand to pour more often these days....
Well, folks, it just doesn't get any more exciting than this! Game 7 of the World Series, bottom of the ninth, score 4-3 with the Yankees in the driver's seat, bases loaded and two out and Joshua Smith at the plate for the Chicago Cubs, hoping for their first World Series championship since 1908, a hundred years ago! They last appeared in the Series way back in 1945, at the end of the Second World War, and as all Cub fans know, they lost that one to the Detroit Tigers. And now it's come down to this. It's all up to Joshua Smith, batting cleanup, with a .365 average for the season, 56 home runs, 129 runs batted in, and a very respectable lifetime average of .285 against Mariano Rivera. Rivera took the mound with the bases loaded and nobody out and has performed masterfully, striking out the first two batters he has faced in this ninth inning.
Here's the first pitch, and Smith takes it looking for strike one.
Smith is 1-for-3 in this game, with a single in the first, a stikeout in the fourth, and an intentional walk in the seventh. With three on and the Yankees ahead by only one run, and facing the best cleanup hitter in the game, there won't be any intentional walk this time around, so both teams hold their collective breath, along with a full house here at Wrigley Field and millions watching and listening throughout the world. Mariano Rivera needs a strikeout here.
The windup and the pitch; Smith swings and misses for strike two. Rivera is now two-thirds of the way to accomplishing what he absolutely HAS to do in this faceoff. If anyone can save this game for the Yankees, that someone would be Mariano Rivera; but if anyone can win it for the Cubs, THAT would be none other than the man of the moment, Joshua Smith. Folks, this at-bat is a duel for the ages!
Mariano Rivera, from the stretch, throws a fastball high and outside for ball one.
Rivera is nearing the end of his career, but is still an outstanding relief pitcher, with 39 saves during the regular season and a sparkling ERA of 1.46, but no strikeouts against Joshua Smith because these two teams did not face each other this year in interleague play. Mariano Rivera and Joshua Smith have faced off a few times back when Smith was playing for the Cleveland Indians, and Rivera has a total of 8 strikeouts against him. But as I mentioned a moment ago, Smith has a lifetime batting average of .285 against Rivera, including three home runs, so Rivera has his work cut out for him.
Here's the pitch, almost in the dirt, low and outside again for ball two. Mariano Rivera is one of the few right-handed pitchers who has had even a fair amount of success against the lefthanded Joshua Smith. His batting against Rivera has been 80 points below his average for this season, and about 60 points below his career average. They are just about an even match, this star reliever for the Yankees and the slugger on his way to Cooperstown.
The crowd is going wild, and there's not an empty seat in the house. Most of those in attendance here in the Friendly Confines are standing on their feet. Rivera shakes off the sign from the catcher, then shakes off another. He steps off the mound for a moment. Now he's back, and this time he nods at the sign. Here's the windup, and the pitch, a slider, low and outside for ball three. And now the count is full on Joshua Smith in this, perhaps THE defining moment in his baseball career -- and Mariano Rivera's as well.
Rivera once again takes the sign, and this time Smith digs in at the plate. He is obviously going for the fences. Here's the windup and the 3-2 pitch. Smith SWINGS . . .
And I will leave the rest of this tale to my reader's imagination. Does mighty Joshua Smith hit it into the lights like Roy Hobbs in "The Natural," or does he, like the unfortunate and lamented Casey, strike out?

The photo I was working from for all of these: www.flickr.com/photos/maureennathan/9731687245/
I wanted to work with another subject the way I work with my own image - not worrying about likeness, having fun with process, indulging in whatever artistic impulse strikes me in the time I have each night. Maureen was kind enough to agree to let me have at her 'no holds barred'. I also like to work in series so I chose to make 50 portraits over 25 days, all from the same photo. The images range from likeness to insane, from detailed to quite rough, some interesting and some that I wouldn't ordinarily display, except I'm posting the whole series.
These were all done in a lined spiral notebook with fairly thin paper that I received last year at a computer conference. I had used the first 50 pages for a series of ink self-portraits, and now I turned it over and starting from the back, filled it with these 50 portraits of Maureen. It is now completely filled.
These are, of course, portraits for Julia Kay's Portrait Party (JKPP).

Back for a second go and now the pink is rockin :)
Simply changing the glass base that was painted white on the underside, to one painted black made a huge difference.
Added to that a smaller pool of light on the background by putting a snoot on the light, rather than the wider reflector, allows more of the pink to show.
Should have mentioned on the previous shot, I'm still messing around with Aperture Priority mode. While the previous one worked fine with no compensation, this setup was a lot darker so I have added an extra stop of light, which gives a much better exposure.
Never thought I would say it, but I'm quite enjoying using auto exposure and the compensation feature is really no different to bracketing in manual mode really.
Also reverted to my lefthand bias with the framing of the shot today, which I'm a lot happier with. I wonder if that looks weird to someone who is lefthanded and if they would bias to the right ???
Never thought about that before :)

Day 09 - 02/07 - 35 m - prussian blue & indian red. Drew with the left, erased with the right.
~5.5 hours... so far.
OK, broke with my conceit and repeated the previous day's color of prussian blue as well as introducing a new one. It's at the point now where pulling the piece together is more important than having the order in which it was made completely visible.
Halfstock percussion rifle made by Theodore Clark Spangler, in either Neponset or Annawan, Illinois. It is .34 caliber, with back action lock, and made for a left-handed shooter. Left handed firearms were very rare during the 19th Century. If one was born left-handed, it was considered a birth defect. Most were "converted" to be right-handed at home or in school.
Theodore Clark Spangler was born in Center Township (now Wyanet Township), Bureau County, Illinois, July 11, 1850. He was one of twin sons (Theodore & Theory), born to Jacob Young Spangler and his wife, Jane Clark, who came to Bureau County from Ohio, in 1847. The family moved to Manlius Township, Bureau County, in 1852.
Theodore Spangler is listed as "Gunsmith & Town Marshall" in Neponset, Bureau County, in "Taxpayers & Voters of Bureau County, 1877". He is listed in the 1880 census as a gunsmith in Annawan Village, Henry County, Illinois, which is just across the county line from Bureau County. Theodore Spangler married Janetta Peebles, in Annawan, Illinois, December 11, 1871. By 1885 he was a gunsmith in Tabor, Iowa. He died in Nebraska in 1903.
Removing the Glove is a short play about left-handed people but is really a clever allegory about homophobia toward gay and lesbian teenagers in high school.
The Drury Drama Team of North Adams, Massachusetts was one of the first groups to perform this important work.
