Teddy Grahams, licence plates and ketchup



Today, we finished our workshop as well as the box of chocolate Teddy Grahams i had brought along for snacks. My colleague Ted drove us back in his Pennsylvania-registered car. Later on, i had an early dinner at a little place where the place mats were dark green.
And that was my day, on three different papers: Moleskine, "crappy" (but beloved) sketchbook, and restaurant place mat.
A quick anecdote: when offered Ted a Teddy Graham, he asked "Is that cannibalism?" :-)




















ted must be a real teddy bear... ; )
LOVE the green ketchup AND the story of your day

Love this series of sketches and how it reveals little snippets from your day. Haven't feel too much like drawing this weekend...but these sketches make me want to pick up a pen (and perhaps have a Teddy Graham)!

You have the best blog.
Thanks for sharing.

I like this little snippet of your day, of your life. Thses are good and would make a very nice series. I might just do this myself - except everyone of my drawings (including quickies) take ages. Oh, and what the HELL are Teddy Grahams?

Andrea, i might have to ship you a box.
Juj & Suzanne: what flavor do you think Andrea will like?? Chocolate, plain, cinnamon?! :-) And yes, I think Ted qualifies as a teddy bear.
Thank you, Lydia!

Hmmm...I'm going with cinnamon. You can never go wrong with cinnamon.

These are so good, I've been trying to find things to draw around the house but coming up entry. You make every drawing interesting to look at. Fantastic!

As always, your art inspires me to draw as much as I can. I have just nominated you for a Brillante Weblog award on my blog. Participation, of course, is optional. I hope you accept though!

They're crunchy goodness. Yes, bite-size biscuits.
Thank you, Stephen and Mark!
