I was suddenly struck that this photo would be a great model for me to practice drawing. This is one of my favorite window shopping places. By that I mean I like to peer through the windows when the shop is closed, as it usually is when I walk by. I might be tempted to […]

I’ve got too many projects going on. I just can’t seem to keep them straight and since they’re not straight they must be twisted, right. I know this is twisted: the evolution of the Jack in the Box clown from an evil leering head to an evil corporate head. Logos as a reflection of our […]
