A Friend..

has this as her default picture on Facebook and I thought it was much different than anything else I've ever seen. It shows a lot of depth and there is a very small variety of colors in it, making it very calm (as busy as the design is as a whole). Hmm.. If you turn the photo 90 degrees to the right, the audience turns into a skeleton and the lady looks like a pirate head...picasso style. I discovered this when I set this picture as my phone's background sideways so it would show up bigger and wahh..laa.. skeleton-pirate man!
I've been trying to work on my GDS proofs so I can have a good start on what to show the group tomorrow in class. It's taking a lot longer than I thought it would.. Maybe because I've been sketching and eating quesadillas. I have one proof done, except there's a few things I can't remember how to do. I'll get the help in class tomorrow. 

Anyways, here's a sketch book entry from yesterday..
I'm excited to see the little ones when they hatch. It's always really exciting and I can watch them swim around our pond for hours.

Here's today's sketch. It feels good to be able to draw and know I'll have people looking at my art (if that's what you wanna call it) .. :)

That's sad. I had the same trouble with my Dad and I see it is a trend or a societal error.

My wife found an article associating the events in the "Lost" series to Daddy issues. Very interesting.

I'm watching my brothers making (what I view to be) parental mistakes, but I'm not a parent so, what can I do to suggest otherwise?

He's a great father and is always there for me. It was just a weird father's day without pops around to celebrate it with.

But I will definitely agree with you in the way that the rising social trend of poker (and more media in the casinos) is causing more and more family and financial issues each year.. Possibly a part of the reason why our country makes it so difficult to gamble legally?..IDK..?

If it were like marijuana and were made completely legal, it is such a big underground market that if we did legalize it, we could most likely benefit as a country from the money put into these tournaments (or drug use) instead of just those smaller guys getting rich and throwing it away for private use. But also legalizing these things could become very dangerous for individuals (laziness, more debt, habit-forming, etc.).

I'm pretty neutral on this whole controversy if you ask me.
