Day 169: On Your Toes

"He who tip-toes cannot stand; he who strides cannot walk."

-Jean de la Bruyere

Day 168: Sitting

"Never do anything standing that you can do sitting, or anything sitting that you can do lying down."

-Chinese proverb

Day 167: House, M.D.

Some of my favorite "House-isms":

"Thing is, hope's for sissies."

"I've found that when you want to know the truth about someone, that someone is probably the last person you should ask."

"There's no I in team. There is a me though, if you jumble it up."

"Humanity is overrated."

"There is not a thin line between love and hate. There is, in fact, a Great Wall of China with armed sentries posted every 20 feet between love and hate."

Day 166: Sneaky

"A man who trusts nobody is apt to be the kind of man nobody trusts."

-Harold MacMillan

Yesterday's drawing...I swear I hit the publish button but apparently I did not...

Day 165: A Kiss

"A kiss with a fist is better than none."

-Florence and the Machine

I don't know why but nothing that I've been drawing has been working these last couple days. I keep starting new drawings but everying looks like garbage. Which is why I've just done boring, easy things.

Day 164: A Bicycle and a Willow

One bicycles (and other things in life): "It never gets easier, you just go faster."
-Greg LeMond

Today, I really just wanted to sketch anything but a person. Usually it's the opposite case. So, of course, I just did something overloaded with green (my favorite color)!

Day 163: Rainy Day

"I was in love with the whole world and all that lived in its rainy arms."
-Louise Erdrich

"One rainy Sunday when I was in third grade, I picked up a book to look at the pictures and discovered that even though I did not want to, I was reading. I have been a reader ever since."
-Beverly Cleary

"Never count your friends on sunny days for they will all be around, count your friends on rainy days when the clouds are gray, and lightning shakes the ground, it is then you painfully see the kind of friend they really are, when life delivers a sharp blow do they stay and try to heal the scar?"

I love rainy Sundays! And I love quotes about rainy Sundays. The weather here is really making me wish I had the time to curl up in some sweatpants with a good book.
