HumpDayHaiku in May Gray!

This month will be all "photokus". Over the next few weeks, I'm heading on an east coast sailing trip, that won't allow me to bring any colored pencils, crayons or markers. But, hopefully in June, I can draw for most of that month instead!

HumpDayHaikus in Merry March

Holy cow this year is flying by! Funny how the time was snail-like when I was growing up, but as an adult, living in SoCal, days blend together since we don't really have seasons. I'm not complaining though! I don't mind visiting snow, but I moved back from Boston for a reason...

07 Mar 2018: Flying High

14 Mar 2018: Dog Beach
Who doesn't love dogs
frolicking in the sand and
chasing each other?

I mean, seriously, it's so awesome to watch! This photo I took a few years ago and it's still one of my favorites.

21 Mar 2018: Spring

28 Mar 2018: Dreams

This one was truly a miracle for me to pull off. I've been packing and cleaning and moving this last month but this week was crunch time. We just finished cleaning the old apartment and got home a little after 9pm last night. I definitely didn't expect to draw anything but I'm pretty happy with this, considering I finished it in under a half an hour.

In the next few weeks or so, I'm going to take my time with one of these!

Hump Day Haikus in Fabulous February

So far I'm still on track to do the haiku thing each week! I have been using pictures more often, but I'll get back to drawing soon.

07 Feb 2018: Ocean Sunsets


The winter Olympics are on right now. Yeah, yeah, it's Valentine's Day too, but I'm more interested in the Olympics, so that is my theme for the week. I just got back from Mammoth so that also inspired this week's haiku.

21 Feb 2018: Ice Skating penguins

So the Olympics are still going on and these athletes are so inspiring! Did you hear about Ester Ledecka and her gold medals in both skiing and snowboarding?! Winning a gold medal in your non-dominant sport... what a badass! (Sorry for the language kids!) Chloe Kim makes the halfpipe look like nothing. I digress...

A few years ago I did a haiku about snowboarding so I decided to go for ice skating...




28 Feb 2018: Starry Night

Who doesn't love the Starry Night painting? My friend created a 3D version of it out of lab supplies and it was so good. Just so....ooo...ooo. good. So much better than what I drew, but I'm working on it.
