International Wombat Day

Vitruvian Wombat

ink and digital colors

Today is/was International Wombat Day. I do like me a wombat.

There is a wombat refuge/rehab place in Australia that is building a retirement home of sorts for their older wombats and there are a lot of them. Since I don't do any donations anymore to the occasional politician, I decided my money would be put to a better use than making millionaires into billionaires in making wombat habitats a thing. If you'd like to donate, as well, you can click here. 

Why a Vitruvian Wombat, you might ask? Hell, I don't know. I had this idea some time ago and thought that I would give it a go for their special day. I guess that I think it's funny that this little guy doesn't measure up to the Vitruvian standards, but is still feisty as heck. Don't tell him that he doesn't measure up!

All Star: The Art Of Sports Gallery Show, Part Two

This past Friday was the opening reception for Tony Miello's All Star: The Art Of Sports show at the River's Edge Gallery in Wyandotte, MI. Tony invited a few of us arteest types to show, as well. Those include Jeremy Hansen, John Marroquin, Bill Morrison, Bill Pulkovski, Jeff Sornig, and myself. 

Here are the three pieces that I have in the show:

Lord Stanley 5x7 scratchboard

Flow I, mixed media

Flow II, mixed media

The show runs through the end of November, so get on down there and check it. Unless, you are coming from Ohio, then you'd be coming up. All pieces are for sale.

Today's Inktober word prompt is Flightless. You don't get a more apt description of flightless than a penguin. Well, maybe a skeletal penguin could be even more flightless.
