Hollow

Thought: hollow head, hollow cactus, Sleepy Hollow (& hollow pumpkin & hollow log), and-- hollow--- and chose all.

Drifting

This IF topic brought to mind the first time I heard The Lord's Prayer--
When I was maybe 10 years old- saw movie on TV - the only thing that stuck with me from it (to this day- and for ever and ever) was a scene in which an astronaut gets cut from his tether and goes drifting off into infinity - at which point he calmly -- bravely accepts his fate and recites The Lord's Prayer. (Pretty much the situation we're all in from birth- I guess).

I remember nothing else about the film- anyone know what film? (I still get most all of religious edu. via the movies & TV- haven't been watching much lately though- watching or not- may be why I'm still agnostic).

Craving

Craved illustrating craving and a haiku- and craving end to procrastinating...
I'm now trying to resist a craving to babble about craving.

hey! no babble(?)-- success!

(Guy kinda looks like cross between Don Knotts, Napoleon Dynamite [Jon Heder], a platypus, and me)

Contagious

I hear 's-not as bad as they made it out to be- hope sow.
hahahahaaa-snorrt... sorry, really not a subject to make light of, but

Conversation I'm having with myself right now:
"Mucous is sugar coated snot; mucous is to snot as perspiration is to sweat-- but mucous isn't as snooty sounding as perspiration- and sweat isn't (if at all) as gross sounding as snot."

Theater

Here's my storyboard/set design sketch- who wrote this S%#@?!
I have to work on the staging- playing with some options in phshp.

Fleeting

...an illustration I did sophomore year in college (mumble mumble years ago) popped into my head- as it dealt with motion- and think it captures a fleeting moment. Sophomoric image- but... The second image is attempt now to quickly improve image via photoshop edit- I didn't know phsp then- not till maybe more than a year later. F'n time-(='s abrev. for Fleeting time, ha)-- I wish I could go back in time sometimes--- well maybe more than sometimes- not just back in my own timeline, but, again, back to moment zero and all the key frames there are.

Wabbit & Time

: [Ref. Intricate post] I guess it lived- unless this is just a relative-- they do make lots of them.
So, don't know if I'll get to post for IF's Fleeting- time is fleeting will probably be the theme--- was thinking of doing something on it- and also about this rabbit. With camera I had, was hard to get close enough for a good pic to capture this fleeting moment/rabbit. Reminds me now how I love photographs--- for the past few years, when I've gone to galleries or giant shows - the photos have tended to grab me more so than works in other mediums- (not to say I like photos over great paintings, sculptures, etc.- they have a magic of their own (how 'bout the cave paintings...). Anyway, not exactly sure what it is about good photographs- the freezing of that fleeting moment for all time- think it's something to do with the reality of it- it's real- authentic; not so much an artist's interpretation--- the photo takes me right to wherever its setting, subject, time is- if a portrait, it gets closer to real contact with the real person- you can look right into the actual eyes of the subject and maybe get to know a part of who they are/were--- how about comparing the value of a painting from life of Jesus to a photograph of him (I'm not a [organized] religious person- I'm pretty much agnostic (or a cynical Buddhist)- but it would be fascinating to have a photo of him, hey? -- More so than a painting- though a painting from life would be pretty amazing too- or of other historical great ancient figures and/or events for that matter-- how about a photo of the construction of the pyramids, or of Stonehenge? Or the dinosaurs? Or how about the first moment of everything (if there is/was one?)?
Anyhow- speaking of bunnies and Jesus: to those of you who celebrate Easter- Happy Easter!

Just now, as I finished the above thought/ramble- an illustration I did sophomore year in college (mumble mumble years ago) popped into my head- as it dealt with motion- and think it captures a fleeting moment. Sophomoric image...

Poise

(Sorry for the graphicness- thinking how one can have great fear & unrest inside (and fear of the inside for that matter), yet seem so poised on the outside-- real challenge is to be poised on the inside. Anyhow, I'll stop the ramble and wish youzz an early happy Halloween. I'll try and lighten up next post, haha).
(Also, this, for the most part, isn't an illo of me- I'm not as poised on the outside- dunno about the inside).
