Tentative
In a few days I will be starting a Podcast Fellowship (will share more details later). I will be learning with a great group of people who have great ideas, under the guidance and coaching of one of my favorite writers and teachers. In our online discussion community, someone asked us all to post our blogs – for those of us who blog. It’s been a while since I’ve blogged, partly because I post my drawings on Instagram. I do a lot of writing for work, but maybe I will get back to writing about what I draw…or drawing about what I write. I thank the fellowship for reminding me of this again.
From this Fellowship, I hope to share and be generous with others as they have been with me. I also look forward to learning the technical and creative aspects of podcasting so that I can share it with my students and others.
Now, about the drawing above, I called it “Tentative 01”. I love lines in every form and this is one of my drawings. The patterns, geometry, texture, color, physicality, and more. I look forward to continuing to share again.

No, I’m not the one flying… I would like to see or sit in a cockpit on day though.

Have a good one!

Today I was leaving NY again heading back to work. This building under construction is coming along quickly.
I like accidental photos
Because the buildings, the sky, the reflections, all beautiful.
Lovely skyline, part of which has been taken away by condos. Ughhh..
Saw this sign at Zapata’s Tacos.
I have a busy day tomorrow… I am thinking of something new to do with my photos. A new topic, subjects,… If you have any suggestions, please suggest away!

Oh yes! A healthy, filling start to the day.
I was busy indoors all day. Took this photo when I went outside later on for some fresh air.
It looked like rain, but it blew over
After work I went to training. I arrived early.
Training was intense as hell today! There was absolutely no stopping. OMG! I was drenched, and my muscles spent! It was great, but whew! Dang! Exhausting.
I had a hankering for some ice cream, and I think I needed to treat myself to it.
Another productive day in many ways. By tomorrow, if not this weekend, I should be finished with my paper and have it ready to submit! After that, on to the next one.
