When I started this blog, my thought was to talk about art.  I tell people, my life is fairly small; I have art, gaming and family as my main touchstones.  So, I figured Art would be easy to blog about.  Show my work, talk about influences... I made a nice list.

Trouble is, I don't always live and breath art.  Sometimes - I just want to talk about that interesting pod cast on gaming.  Or grouse about traveling.  Or just scream nothing to the world and the injustice of it all.

So, while I've done some interesting art things lately - I have not really blogged about it.  The Mucha Museum trip alone could fill pages and pages...  I've almost finished my latest sketchbook - so I've got lotsa of art I could share.

I'm a blogger.  Kept a regular diary for years.  Did the whole Live Journal thing, daily.  Obviously, what I need is permission to just fart around.

I think Art is like this.  There are times you need to do stupid sketches in preparation for the big art.  Little nuggets of creativity to get the ball rolling - so that something can come of it.

So, I give myself permission to just tell you some days that I am headed to the dentist.  I'll try not to, obviously.  But, like this post - you never know where stuff like this leads to.  I guess this post is about Art after all.  So, in that spirit - I'll also put a sketchbook sketch on the bottom of this as well.
