Que Vida?
What life?
I drew this this morning, and all the while, I kept checking the terrible news. The Middle East is plunging into war.
And that, my friends, is why I and my family are on the other side of the planet.
Hiding.
Jeesh...
Que Vida - Love

pencil drawing in my Moleskin
Calbayog City 2024
For the past two days I've been playing with the zygomatic process. It gives some drama to a drawing. And I've always thought it had the coolest name in all of human anatomy.
This morning as I lay with my wife she thought I was massaging her head. And I was. But I was also appreciating her zygomatic process.

Oh sweet spontaneous earth...
How often have religions taken
thee upon their scraggy knees
squeezing and buffeting thee
that thou mightest conceive
gods.
But true
to the incomparable couch of death
thy rythmic lover
thou answerest them
only with
Spring

Black sharpie in my moleskin
Earwax cafe Chicago, 2000
Is the Earwax cafe still open? Anyone in Chicago? I used to go there and drink esspresso coffee and doodle in my moleskin. Sipping a warm cup of coffee while just outside the window there'd be a roaring cold midwestern blizzard. I loved Chicago.

This song...
I have to speak vaguely about this one but there was a morning in 2002 in Chicago when I finally got to do something that I had been dreaming about doing for my entire like. It was a lovely fall morning. For the entire rest of the world it was just another morning but for me..
When I got in the car and started driving into town, this song came on the radio.
As I drove I turned up the volume, and tears ran down my face.
Never give up my friends.
By the way, I based this drawing on a photo of the lovely Jing Yu. Instagram @yuki_injo
