....Trump is quoted as saying; "...you look at what's happeing last night in Sweden".....much to the perplextion and vexation of the Swedes, who have NO IDEA what he is talking about. It's like the The Böwling Grön Massacre all over again. This is my guess. ;)

Judy, Judy n'est pas jolie
Judy, Judy celle qu'on oublie
(Que l'on oublie)
Dès que la soirée s'achève
Judy, Judy on te charrie
Judy, Judy on te marie
(On te marie)
Et toujours avec un rêve
Sous ton rimmel et tes bijoux
Tu pries Sainte Marilyn Monroe
D'être une poupée, un beau joujou
Tu peux te plaindre
Enfin la femme
Judy, Judy se réfugie
Judy, Judy dans la magie
(dans la magie)
Des flacons si doux à boire
Judy la nuit
Fait un songe dérisoire
Un jour un soir changer de peau
Avec les pis sur les photos
A boire encore comme un roseau
Les yeux tout vides
Mais pas de rides
Judy, Judy & Compagnie
Judy, Judy qu'on sacrifie
(qu'on sacrifie)
Contre une poignée de neige
Pauvre Judy
#310 of 365 Daily Drawings
Inspiration: Barcelona
Result: Day 4
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Sakura Micron 005 & Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer watercolour pencils in a Stillman & Birn Zeta series sketchbook
Location: apartment in Barcelona
Note: The following drawings are reflections of my trip to Spain, Dublin and Scotland. It's a combination sketchbook / journal. Not all of the pages contain writing ....those are yet to be filled in because while I did make a point of doing a drawing every day I really didn't have time to also fill in the blanks with words...those are to come. I just needed to get these posted so I could get my daily drawings back on track. :)

"There's no time for waiting
No future to see
Inside the next moment
Nothing might be
The answer's not certain
No time to decide
Is this the last curtain
There's no place to hide..."
(Leon Russell, Elton John, THE UNION)
Ink on $teinbach paper
Fun morning with the Brisbane Urban Sketchers at South Bank. I really love drawing the Moreton Bay Fig Tree trunks.. Can you find the water dragon?

"Oh you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes..."

Coloured pencil and ink on $teinbach paper
"...You can't shoot down the moon
Some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
Just as long as you're around
We live on borrowed time
I'll put my money where my mouth is
You're guilty at the scene of the crime
I never say more than I need
The mystery runs deep
The dangers buried below
The secrets that you keep"
SHOOT DOWN THE MOON - Elton John, 1985;
#75 of 365 Daily Drawings
Inspiration: My recent birthday
Result: Infinity Dragon
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Micron 005 & 02 pens, in a Moleskine plain journal
Location: At home
Note: I have always been associated with dragons. I don't mean that I think I am one or feel an affinity for them, rather that throughout my life people have gifted me with dragon totems and nicknames. Born in the Year of the Dragon helps explain how it started, but not why it has persisted for decades. After a while it just became such a strong part of my identity that I now sport a dragon tattoo.
As a birthday card to myself I decided to draw one, curled in the symbol of infinity, which also happens to be the shape that my family has traditionally baked for birthdays a sweet bread made with saffron, raisins, orange peel and almonds instead of a cake with candles. :)

Inktober #10 of 31
Inspiration: ... Thinking of fairy tales...
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Platinum Carbon Fountain Pen, Kuretake No. 13 Fountain Brush Pen & Faber-castell in a Stillman & Birn Epsilon series sketchbook
Location: Home
Note: just messing around...if I get my chores done today then I might get at those cats that are piling up.
....I don't even know what to make of this colour. Scanning it. Photographing it.....nope. Not going to get anywhere near the weirdness in real life. Red? Orange? Touch of neon peach? It breaks with water to paler but even more messed up version of what it scans. I have no idea....aside from the fact that it is not to my tastes.

Inspiration: What if 007, Q & M were canines...
Result: MI-K9
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Micron 005 & 02 pens, in a Moleskine plain journal
Location: At home
Note: Yeah more Skyfall inspired doodling....*cough*....this time thinking what breeds would Bond, Q and M be if the were dogs.
The answer...at least using my pretzel logic are the following ~ Scottish Deerhound/007 (big, loyal gun dog and...er ...Scottish), Border Collie/Q (always the smartest pup in the class...THE genius of the dog world) and British Bulldog/M (no explanation necessary) ~ but most important....ALL are native to the U.K... in case you were wondering.
#201 of 365 Daily Drawings
Inspiration: Freezing Rain
Result: Not impressed by Mother Nature
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Sakura Micron in a Moleskine Plain notebook
Location: home (waiting to leave before my trip was cancelled)
Note: I was supposed to go out of town this weekend but Mother Nature had other ideas and sent freezing rain to glaze my world like a giant ice encrusted donut. Power (and heat) just came back on after 12 hours.....and I am grateful it was ONLY 12 hours. I spent most of the day on the couch with blankets, cats and a book.
The book in case you were wondering: Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us (a must read in my opinion)
#120 of 365 Daily Drawings
Inspiration: Dr. Who
Result: Bow Ties are Cool!
Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Copic MultiLiner SP 0.03 in a Stillman & Birn Epsilon series sketchbook ( 21.6 cm 27.9 cm / 8 1/2" x 11")
Location: Home
Note: My 12 year old son and I have been watching a lot of Dr. Who lately and it's become a running joke around the house to just randomly proclaim that 'bow ties are cool!' I'm sure the owl Doctor has been done a bazillion times before but I just had to get it out of my system :)
