NOT A HEALTHY DRAWING

selfp2.jpg So what? I don't feel healthy. It's my blog. I can be sour and vengeful and a big fat crybaby if I want to. This is just as much who I am as any persona you might find more pleasant. Sometimes the black pours in like squid ink or storm clouds sped up by a film student. And who's to say it's not the temporary light escaping? This is the occasion for Richard Thompson, and I hsve a big mother 6-CD set of liver music. should have been "live", but I like liver fine. Sometimes his guitar's like a whip, and listening to him is like winning a fist fight. Where's that Windex?

OK. This is the best drawing you've done in the year I've known you and your work. And, by God, that is saying a LOT. There have been a year of exquisite drawings. But this one. This one is pure, unadulterated wonderful.

For your information, "hsve" is a Finnish word meaning "am listening to."

One of my most favorite ever! when you die this will be in a museum and everyone will talk about what a suffering fellow you were. =) This makes me furl my brow!

Breathtaking poetry -- again. And I believe every self-portrait you do is healthy (not necessarily every self-portrait everyone does, but every one YOU do).
