Less back in time...

I still have many drawings from around 2000-2001, some of them quite striking. This one I call 'Inaccurate Narwhals' because it portrays two male narwhals fighting one another with their delicate, sensitive tusks.
` In real life, these whales actually use the tusk as a sensory organ, of all things, and even as tool to groom one another!

Yes, that's my foot, from when I took this photo recently.

The next one is just a regular ol' contour drawing except it's gigantic and features Dole bananas. I did it for the drawing class I took when I was 19.
` Woody... narwhal tusks... giant bananas... why do I get the feeling I arranged these photos with an intent to plant subliminal messages in people's brains?

This one was another class project, where all the students went out of doors for once, in the sunshine, where we were surrounded by the Ferocious Tri-C geeses, beaks glistening red... from the berries they were eating.

Also around this time I took one of many trips to Ohio State University and drew a really bad sketch of some friends of Phil's. Remember him? No? Don't worry about it.

The badness of the sketch was really a result in my hurry to make up for this one, which was rather better:

On that same day, I also had drawn one of myself in the dorm's bathroom mirror. I never really liked it, but I thought it was kinda cool because it looks like Beethoven.

Sorta. Well, that's all for now. Be back in about four days. I promise!
