Drawing Coloring Pages

Char wanted to paint but I didn’t. We spent a little time at the house before going back to the shop to stay the night and work. Focusing on my work more than anything these next few days. The NAMM guitar show is going on next week so I have hopes of going and spending some time at our place in Nashville. Gotta get my work in a good place. I drew silly things he told me to draw and he painted them all my favorite colors.

Gesso

Charlie thinks putting on primer is boring. He lasted through one rock while I did about 15 and then he played with robots and cars and picked at his dinner. We put on the sprinkler in hopes our grass by the lake would grow. I wanted to make some art on the rocks and ukes but the mundane task of getting them ready to paint emptied me out.

Buckeye Lake Art Collective & the IH

Had our second art meeting at The Harbor Community Center. It was a little smaller but really productive and I felt a sense of community. Looking forward to doing more at the center in the coming months.

Swung over to the Island House to catch Terry Efaw play after it was over. I made some fast little watercolor owls, drank White Claws and visited with friends. Tomorrow is going to be all guitar parts and work as soon as David leaves for the bus in the morning.

Busy Monday

  • Had to get Whit’s custard to make it through the Chamber meeting at the North Shore Coffee shop.

I only had a few minutes for art so I painted a tiny logo of the North Shore Coffee Co before we went to a Buckeye Lake Chamber of Commerce meeting at their place. Char was relatively good and it was a good time with friends. My old friend Marcus from high school stopped by in his cop car and let him check it all out. He was so thrilled. It was a long day for Char with daycare, a new haircut and mom’s boring meeting but he survived.

Welcome to Zanesville Banner

I slept well after one hell of a work weekend. Feel like our family is moving forward. A positive but fast march. David drove in from a few gigs this morning and I made us all omelets that we shared with the neighbor on the deck. More bikes than boats this morning. Then the boys went inside to play guitars and work on letters. Getting the band back together after the short absence. I am outside working on my “Welcome to Zanesville” banner and high on Cuban espresso. So inspired by what we are accomplishing as a family.

I have to stop and look at what we are getting done more than worry over what I think we need to do. Always so much more to do.

Still a ton left to do on the banner and the entire other side will be a moon. Good start. #sundayvibes #welcometozanesville
