So, registered my own personal name as a domain name. It's not the domain I use for my website, I really just registered it to protect my name. But someone wants to buy it. Like, persistently. I think that person is a screenwriter. The thing is, it's his name, too. I'm totally out of my depth here.

I'm having quite the conversation, via texting, with a coworker who just read "White Fragility". She went through all the stages of grief associated with being told she's racist - but I'd say all in all, she's coming along quite well.

I haven't been on here except to drop a few pieces of art and duck. I can't really. Not yet. Bestie just challenged me about staying unconnected. I told her "self care." "Except," she said, "you're not doing that - you're just hiding." When your bestie knows you so well she can just split the arrow.

My son is a DM (D&D). I haven't drawn him in a while, so for Hanukkah, I drew him this: (Oh yeah, and - Happy New Year y'all!)

A life devoted to the service of others. A truly good man. He's rejoined his beloved Rosalind. RIP.

Spending Christmas Day with my brother and our adult kids and we're literally deep into discussing the theory of relativity, the paradox of faster than light travel, the Kardashov scale, and the heat death of the universe. I'm not even joking. Yeah, that's my family.

This white progressive male is targeting Black women.

My baby girl has graduated college! This, a week after her birthday, and a week before the holidays. So I drew her something she mused about a couple of years ago: a portrait of her and Joni Mitchell at roughly the same age. I usually hate colored pencil but it seemed like the right choice for this.

I just came across this thoroughly delightful short video about dog acting - so I want to share it with all y'all dog lovers. (And, to quote one of my favorite T-shirts: "I don't care who dies in a movie - as long as the dog lives!") youtu.be/O8h_0G2WLrA?...

My wife and I just found a dog. Or, rather, he found us. Ran to stand in front of our car and when I stopped, he ran to the door. My wife opened the door and he hopped right up and into both our laps. He behaved like a castaway who's spotted rescue ship.

What the fuck is going on with the corporate networks? Feels very unsettling.

In my version of heaven, I can eat all the ice cream I want.

One thing I didn't expect to become kind of a specialty, is working from different photos to create a pose that never happened in real life - the grandkids have never all been together, Dad wasn't able to be at the wedding, that sort of thing. But that's the magic of portraiture. #artcommissions
