addictive cocoa

another week of sketching and another posting of a images on this blog. I have found it interesting that I have a separate blog for family, food, fashion and art. Is there a reason I have compartmentalized these different elements of self? hmmmmm

remnants of quantum foam

Unlike quantum foam, everyone knows what cake, balance and illuminating ideas are....okay, these are just a few sketch without any particular ideas.

Traveling views

After spending all day interviewing in atlanta...i began feeling like a talking machine and dreamed of sipping the warmth of dark cocoa to ease the fatigue.

Sailing way, taking time

I'm trying to get the wind back into my sails and loosening the rigging and straighten the mast. I'm holding the tiller and searching the horizon for the faded stain of distant land. The image of the bald head with the time piece balancing upon his head is tied to a string held by an unseen hand.

drifting thoughts, scrolled during boring meetings

the shrine of the hallowed cocoa cup, a box with unknown contents a drift in a distant sea...two draws of defying gravity.

no hands

Food and eating related objects ...look mom, no hands!

moderate attempts on being clever

New sketches

A few sketches from this week's drawing during a few free moments. The image of the guy with the pencil in the head was inspired by this article:

BERLIN — After being plagued for 55 years with the torment of a pencil lodged in her head, a German woman has finally had it removed.

Margaret Wegner, now 59, was 4 years old when she fell while carrying the 3.15 inch-long pencil, which went through her cheek and into her brain.

"It bored right through the skin and disappeared into my head," Wegner told Germany's best-selling newspaper, Bild. "It hurt like crazy."
At the time the technology did not exist to safely remove the pencil, so Wegner had to live with it — and the chronic headaches and nosebleeds that it brought — for the next five-and-a-half decades.
But on Friday, Dr. Hans Behrbohm, an ear, nose and throat specialist at Berlin's Park-Klinik Weissensee, was able to use modern techniques to identify the exact location of the pencil so that he could accurately determine that the risks of removing it, and then take most of it out.

The operation was particularly difficult because of the way the pencil had shifted as Wegner grew, Behrbohm told The Associated Press on Tuesday.
"This was something unique because the trauma was so old," said Behrbohm, who has also operated to remove bullets from the brains of shooting victims, and glass from the brains of people involved in car accidents.
Though a 0.79-inch piece of the pencil could not be removed, Behrbohm said it does not present a danger.
And now Wegner, the wife of German boxing coach Ulli Wegner, will no longer have the headaches and nosebleeds, and her sense of smell should also return soon, Behrbohm said.
"She shouldn't suffer any longer," he said.

Taking it in the back

The slinging of back jabbing arrows and a strange duality of an image.

Food

Fish noodles and supreme hot cocoa.
