THE DAILY DICK. NOVEMBER 21, 2013

Not much to say on this one.
No under-drawing of any kind, just working straight with what looks like a
calligraphic pen using water bases ink—hence the somewhat grayed-out color of
the ink.

It is
interesting for its abstractness, and that it is draw on a page featuring maps
of the North Pole and South Pole. The 
bodies to which the two dicks are attached seem to be on opposite sides
of an invisible sphere. I was probably thinking (consciously or not) along those
lines when I drew. My practice, as I did the drawings atop a pre-existing
image, was to stare at the image for a few minutes until I got some sort of
inspiration. Then I would start drawing, usually working quickly and
spontaneously.

THE DAILY DICK, NOVEMBER 20, 2013

I sketched this drawing on Saturday, ballpoint
pen.  I was trying to see if I
could turn myself on. I didn’t. I thought it was an interesting compositional
idea though.  Worth further
exploration…

THE DAILY DICK, NOVEMBER 19, 2013

Today and yesterday’s posts
are a preview of my next iteration, “The Daily Derriere”.

As I
recollect, I  drew this with
watercolor pencils… one draws with them as if using a regular colored pencil,
but then can paint into them with water and can manipulate the pigments thusly.

Copied from an old photo, painted with watercolor and
gouache. This time around, the map of Africa is defaced.

Nothing special here. Colored pencil sketch taken from
a photo found on the web. I sort of like the way the drawing echoes the shape
of the South American continent .

THE DAILY DICK, NOVEMBER 14. 2013

On this drawing, I cut out sections from various
pieces of scrap pager, then glued it onto the page. I then painted into it
with  gouache and drew onto it with
colored pencil.

THE DAILY DICK, NOVEMBER 12, 2013

I finished this at 11:00 PM,
November 12, 2013. It seemed too numerologically pertinent not to post.

I drew it with a regular old
Ticonderoga soft lead pencil, bought in bulk a couple years back. My favorite
pencil.

I like
this drawing a lot. It’s a balm, a relief, an antidote to my paying gig,
drawing all day long in someone else’s style. I don’t know what my style is.
I’m doing this daily blog to help me discover it.
