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.

#25 Someone at work
In this case me working on a rather challenging entry to the "Be a Producer" contest to win two VIP passes to 2014 Edmonton Folk Music Festivail. That means all the perks of volunteering (I've been doing that for twenty years), no work ( I'll likely put in one shift just to see old friends), acess to backstage and the greenroom. To win you needed to program one evening of Mainstage , including Emmylou Harris with Rodney Crowel and Richard Thompson, plus 4 others. And you needed to plan six session stages with 4 acts on most of each.....and guess who won??!!!
I am one happy person right now!!!

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).

J has taken Detroit by storm. Armed with his left-handed Taylor guitar, a few Lee Oskar harmonicas, and a voice like Pete Yorn, this singer/songwriter's brand of FolkRockFunk has made him one of the fastest rising musical acts here in Motown. He's booked every week so there's a lot of opportunity to see him play. He's wrapping up his cd soon, check out more info on him at www.myspace.com/jgravesmusic

My work area in my room at home. Ok well, it's just my desk. Truth be known My room was cleaned last weekend...so I can actually do my work in here now! I'm a lefty, hence it might look backwards to some of you, or even cluttered...but that's the life of a lefty...and that's not just me making excuses--it's a fact....at least that's what a lefty organization said.....I like my clutter---I know where everything is can't you see it?

ESP has now officially stopped all orders for one-of-a-kind ESP Standard models. If you want anything special, you now have to use their CU$TOM $HOP. I bought this model from Xtreme Lefty Guitars (www.xlguitars.com). They have a huge selection, but ESP cut off all future unique orders, so once their inventory is gone, it's GONE.

Left handed, 'blind' (eyes open) drawing with right-handed, sighted color.
Original Post
In a traditional 'blind' contour you look only at your subject and not down at the paper. However, you do often have a sense of the paper and where you are on the paper in your peripheral vision since your eyes are open. That's how this was done, and you can see that it's different than the previous 10 days when my eyes actually were closed, and the only clues I had to where I was on the paper came from feeling for the edges. In both cases, the drawing was left-handed and the painting right-handed.
Today's Comments
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...
