I stayed up ridiculously late watching "Summertime" the other night and have been trying to track down the artist responsible for the opening credits. No dice. I did find this excellent collection of British film artists though, which is a real treasure trove.

February

With apologies to T.S. Eliot, I think February is the cruelest month.

Hey whaddya' know, I just realized as of last month there's four years worth of entries here on this blog. Good times...

Ten Things

So I was tagged for a Happy 101 Blog Award (thanks Lorelei!) and so here's my list of ten things that make me happy:

1) Used book stores

2) This color:

3) Derwent Graphic 2B pencils

4) Thursdays

5) Chai Tea Lattes

6) The Cricket Press poster on the wall by my desk

7) The picture my niece drew of me that's also by my desk

8) Listening to the radio when working, especially "Q," "This American Life," "The Debaters," and "Wait, Wait Don't Tell Me," (when I remember it).

9) Camp fires, with or without accompanying marshmallows

10) A new sketchbook
