The more I get into this idea of a photography business and trying to find new ways to make pictures for my clients the more I want to make things and try things out. This recently led me to look at some of my old drawing and paintings that I did on large canvas and old curtains etc.... I found this drawing/painting of Santa and the Easter bunny that I made in undergraduate school that I thought I could use to paint over and make a background. I laid it out and before committing to destroying something I made years ago and haven't really looked at in years in order to make something I could use now, I decided to makes some record of it by photographing it. While looking for a picture to post today(my photo shoot got cancelled and I had planned on a shot from that being the featured picture) I stumbled on them and realized that I really am drawing much the same as I did then and decided to combine my most recent self portrait done this summer with the two mythological beings. Looking at these really makes me want to draw more--I always loved to draw, even though I'm not overly skilled at it, there is something I can say with it I know. I'm pushing for legislation to create a 9 day week. Everyone still only works 40 hours over five days, but gets a 4 day weekend each week. Then I could draw more!
