The drawing is in horizontal orientation. It's a portrait of a human-like figure. The head is just a skull without skin or flesh. The back of the head appears to have a metal plate that's bolted onto the bone. The temple has a hole inside that contains a clockwork mechanism. The mechanism appears intricate and ornamented. The top of the head has a couple of cogs that are connected by a chain. Both eye sockets have a long pipe coming out of it. The pipes have lenses at the end. The jaw melds together with what appears like a 50s era microphone. The microphone reaches all the way up to where the nose should be. Instead of a nose, it has something rounded and mechanical looking. The rounded mechanical object has a single hole in the middle of it. The character is wearing a fancy black suit, white shirt and a light bow tie. The character is facing to the right at an angle. The background is made of curved lines. The image is in black and white.

The same image, but only partially drawn. The suit and tie are just outlines. The background is much lighter and the character itself is slightly lighter. All of the details are already present. The head is mostly shaded.

The same image in an earlier form. Its mostly just the outlines. The visual apparatus is somewhat shaded. There are a few shading lines on the skull. There is no background present yet. The suit has just a few lines drawn.

#^Susan Abulhawa’s response to PEN America’s complicity with genocide

Read Susan Abulhawa’s scorching letter to the head of PEN America where she takes a blowtorch to the organization’s continued complicity with Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

I stay drawing, AI will never beat the satisfaction I get from creating things with my hands

Two portrait sketches, one of a woman and the other of a man.

Two sketches, one of daisies and the other of a hand plucking fruit from a tree.

A sketch of an eldritch, tentacle eye creature, projecting a spotlight onto figure.

Zmieniłam #medium - teraz rysuję piórem wiecznym. Pióro nie wybacza błędów: musisz rysować od razu dobrze. Przez to wzmaga się uważność przy rysowaniu. #Ołówek jest łagodnym nauczycielem, pióro srogim. Zaletą pióra z atramentem jest też, że nie wymaga fiksatywy do utrwalania.
Still trying 03

Die PEN-EE. Noch eine "Point and Shoot"-Kamera von Olympus aus Anfang der 60er Jahre die im "Half Frame"-Format fotografiert, d.h. auf einem 36er Film waren so 72 Aufnahmen möglich.
Ich habe mit der Kamera noch nicht fotografiert und erst mal die Lichtdichtung im Deckel erneuert, die hatte sich altersbedingt in Wohlgefallen aufgelöst. Mal sehen, ob und wie gut sie noch funktioniert.

A creative thread.

The Daughter .

From the manuscript:

"My swords are here. Different swords for different war. Made from my Father's truth. Its within me and all around me like a forest of the ancient time. Riddles of His creation guard it well. I am protected by His Love.

Soon I will join His new war. It's moving slowly but certain by His directions only...—
