Clouds are Angel Pillows, No?
You know you live in the desert when the top news story is a few inches of rain.
Granted, for a region that gets about eight (if that much) inches a year, a rainfall measured in inches is significant. But, in light of real storms--Katrina--it's pretty laughable.
Words spoken by one nitwit on the local news. "Who knew these clouds could hold so much water?"
Well, duh, anyone who's taken high school science? Clouds are made of what? Ya big maroon.
Some of the stupidest students in the science labs I taught were Journalism majors. (Sadly, the absolute worst were Education majors.)
A combination of sick and busy the last couple of days. Really, I can be both. I loath feeling sorry for myself, so I do more work when sick. Yard looks spiffy, but I'm so sore I can hardly move.
One of several WIPs, the pose was stolen from a statue in a Design Toscano catalogue. It was supposed to be a gesture study, but I like it. Fixing the line work, which means redrawing all with the pen tool in PS, and then futzing to make it look more like real inking. Wings aren't done yet.
Writing...a meager 500 words. Must get ass in gear today.
P.K.
