Yet Another Drawing of PT


This is one of the first ones I done. The hardest part was all the shading. It became very tedious and also very messy. My hand was black when I finished. This is also one of my favorite drawings of Pete in action. And of course it is from an infamous poster I had hanging in my room.

Happy Birthday Pete Townshend

Today is Pete Townshend's birthday. I haven't a poem or a song. I leave those things to him. All I have to give is my devoted love and admiration. I love you P.T. Happy Birthday!

Learning to Speak Swedish



Have you ever been to a country where you do not speak the language? If you have someone with you that speaks the language you can always ask, What did they say? Huh? and so on. When I was in Sweden last year I felt like I was on Mars at times. It was very frustrating for me and I'm sure for the people who don't speak English to communicate.
So, I have decided to try and teach myself Swedish. It can get quite confusing for me. English is confusing to me sometimes and that is my first language. I know Greek but I am not fluent as I should be.
It is really confusing when one word means something in one language and something else in another. For instance, nai in Greek means yes. Nej in Swedish means no and in English it is a sound a horse makes.
If I can figure this whole language thing out, hopefully by October I will be able to at least understand enough Swedish to get by.
Wish me luck!

Purple Rachel


This is the first portrait I have done since I got my new glasses. I don't know if they are working properly. This picture looks much better in person. I am kind of hesitant posting this, and I may have to do more to it. I think the eyes may need more work. Tell me what you think.
