Bete Noir

Here is a little garage sale delight for $3 that I decided to make my own. I call it Hello Family and the Bete Noir (Black Beast). It’s a little random, but enjoy.

Alms for the birds

February 12th, 2007 by shawn

Alms for the Birds.jpg  I am intrigued by anthropomorphism in relation to a lot of things, but especially in relation to animals. We assign human characteristics to them every day. A good example can be viewed by watching Jessica and I interact with our cats. To better my illustration skills I am starting to work on a project called Alms for the Birds. It stems from a related scripture about God providing for the birds and beasts so why not us humans (Matthew 6:26). Well, its kind of related so this is what I drew. It’s an excuse for me to work on drawing animals like humans.

Bien Hecho

February 1st, 2007 by shawn

This is probably one of the last additions of photo sets for a bit because I finally caught up with publishing all the photos I took over the last 4 months. Anyways, this was a trip to Mexico for a little surf the day after Christmas. It is something Mr. Williams always brought us Ramona kids on. Just remember his name is Mr. Will and not Mr. Won’t. It was good to catch up with Brian, Guiseppi, Jeff, Mr. Williams and my brother. However, going back to cross the border they switched up what used to be the carpool lane. It took us into the Sentry pass lane which is a shorter line that you buy a pass for every couple of years. We didn’t have the pass so once we crossed the border they sent us right back. In total we spent 4 1/2 hours in line minimum. The whole time I had to go to the bathroom super bad (#1) and ended up having to use a gatorade bottle in the back seat of my car. Don’t tell. Over all it was good to be back in Mex. Just don’t invest in riverfront drainage property.
