kuwaiti photographer reda salem saw my post yesterday and took it a step further. it elicited a 'what the' from me and then a huge smile when i discovered his addition to my drawing.
I started this blog a year ago for a few reasons. One of the main reasons was to share my work with others and garner immediate feedback. I never really hoped for more than a good discussion, which I must admit I rarely get. But throughout the year, I did manage to find a few surprises in my mailbox. Thanks, Reda, for taking a step. To check out Reda Salem’s work, click on fish. Over the bridge for my original sketch.

This piece was inspired by the original Eve and the apple, and then Snow White and her apple. Consequently I decided to include the evil step-sisters. Well into this piece, I realized that Snow White didn’t have any sisters, step or otherwise. That was Cinderella. So I thought: screw it. We all have our apples and most of us have an evil sister or two to contend with. (more…)

I miss coffee, and I’m not a coffee drinker. I forgot to color in the cookie in the saucer so feel free to color it in with any flavor you like. I am hungry and have no energy this morning. I would gobble a rotten apple core collected from a garbage bin if you offered it to me right now. So it’s best I stay in and draw my lazy pictures.
