picking up the brush

By anders pearson •

never argue with your muse.

for the last couple years, my creative energies have been pretty much limited to programming and doodling in my sketchbook. lani even got me a nice new set of oil paints and brushes for my birthday the other year and ever since i’ve felt somewhat guilty about not doing anything with them.

yesterday, after a nice breakfast of eggs, rice, and beans, i had the sudden urge to paint something. so i stopped at the art supply store, picked up some canvases and headed home.

about nine paint-fume filled hours later, i had a new painting.

i’ll have to wait a few days for it to dry before i can scan it in (and i have to hope that i can find a scanner big enough to scan an 11x14 canvas…)
