Self Surplus Art Exhibit
(it says “Country” with two guitars on the back).
On Saturday, Steve and I passed by what looked like a practice for a large-scale disaster. There were several emergency groups gathered, plus a few dummy victims strewn on the ground. It got me to thinking, what if we could have practice runs like this on life’s personal disasters? Would we be better prepared? What…
Van Camping Preparation When I began planning my van camping trip, the weather was not what I typically seek for outdoor playtime. The temperatures didn’t look so bad (between 50 and 65 degrees (F)); it was the prediction of rain and high winds that made me frown. But if you wait for perfect weather in…
September is sending signals that summer is drawing to a close. At my age, I don’t want to wish away time, but this summer has been an endurance test. Wherever you live, it’s likely some kind of weather stress and the underlying worry over what it means for our future has touched you. So I’m…

Cool! I’ve always loved line drawings. Not much to hide behind there. I’m sure Lain would concur, the vest is only to be worn ironically. You’re only allowed to wear it if you also wear the amo belt and skinny jeans, and maybe some punk ass shirt. 😉 If you do, please post pics!
Oooh! Scary picture forming in mind! Need to vanquish!
Love the show…wish I could have been there. Beautiful line drawings…it’s hard to keep context when working so large…great job.
Now, where can i get an amo belt? Do ya think it comes in a size 14?
Well! Lain’s drawings are great!!!! His surplus concept is excellent, and the white refreshments were perfect for the occasion. As a retired art teacher, I am impressed. It looks like you and your sister had a great time. Thanks for the comments.
I love your son’s line drawings – the simplicity is great. I bet that he was very glad to have family there!
