What's The Point?

Quite frankly, I don't see the point of pointillism. 

Lots of dots.

It's a dull and boring process to draw an image full of dots, periods and points.

It's okay to prove that one has the patience to just keep on making a point after point after point.

At a certain point,

one loses the point of pointillism.

If you point and click your cursor on the images below,

you will have a better point of view.

So, The Elephant And The Rhino

It was a cold day.

A very cold day.

I put on a black turtleneck,

black corduroy pants,

white socks,

slipped in a pair of burgundy mules.

and went to work.

My feet were cold

so I put on a pair of black riding boots.

I was still cold

so I put on a merino wool sweater over my turtleneck.

During the day, it got colder,

so I put on an orange hoodie over my merino wool sweater

and put on sweatpants over my corduroy pants.

I put on a pair of thick red socks

but my feet won't fit in my mules or riding boots

so I wore a pair of black and red Nike slippers.

I continued working.

The air was cold and my ankles were cold

so I put on a pair of Harley Davidson motorcycle boots.

Later The Viking saw me and asked if I was cold.

I said "yes"

so he raised the thermostat temperature.

I was hot

so I peeled off the layers of clothes I had on.

I drank coffee.

I finished work and logged off.

I was cold

so I decided to go to bed

and covered myself with a soft furry blanket.

It was sooooooo soft and warm.

I stared at the ceiling. It was only seven PM

so I drew...

I fell asleep while drawing 

and I made errant scratch marks.

so I covered the entire foreground with grass.

So boring.

Step By Step, Little By Little and Love

I found a pen, ink and paper combination 

that feels like drawing with pencil. 

So smooth, 

so airy, 

just like feather. 

This is part of a drawing I started today for IF's "Prehistoric". 

Yeah, baby! 

I want to talk about love, 

but then I will find myself rambling.

Love is overwhelming,

as overwhelming as the fullness I feel in my heart as if my chest will explode,

or the lump in my throat that makes it hard to breathe.

I am in love.

Wonder what my oxygen saturation will be if one measured it while I find it hard to breathe,

but then again,

I take a deep breath to relieve the fullness of my chest,

so it evens the oxygen level and gets rid of the carbon dioxide.

Today is my eldest sister's birthday.

That makes me very happy.

I love my sister very much.

Today is my father's thirteenth year death anniversary.

Two days from now,

will be my sister Leah's third year death anniversary.

The latter two makes me sad.

Such is life.

I love my family very much.

Fare Thee Well but Farewell Not

All things to nothing descend,

Grow old and die and meet their end...

Nor long shall any name resound

Beyond the grave, unless 't be found

In some clerk's book, it is the pen

Gives immortality to men...*

or elephants!!!

okay, I just added this one.

All the elephants in the world cannot satisfy man's senseless and selfish desire for ivory.

Please do not buy anything, worship any idol or use any gadget made of ivory.
Stop the elephants from vanishing.

A very special remembrance tribute to my beloved sister Leah, who passed this earthly life a little over a year ago. She loved elephants so much. Not a day passes by without me thinking of her and feeling her love. I love you, forever. Tsup!

Fare thee well!
