Stick Figures... Go Figure


Velopalloza decided to follow me on Twitter so I did a little investigating. Found this on their site which combines two of my favourite things - cycling and E.T.


So I guess they're alright with me.

It makes me wish I were more creative in the drawing and design aspects of my life. I read somewhere once that people give up drawing when they become self-conscious of how others would look at their drawings. Like they weren't good enough or something. But that just makes it worse because the less you do something, the more you're going to suck at it. Not everyone's good at everything but who cares. You shouldn't be drawing for other people anyway. Just pick up a pencil and doodle. I think you'd be surprised at how not suck you are. Even if they are just stick figures, they're your stick figures.

These thoughts inevitably makes my fingers twitch for our piano back home in Ontario... The one at the K-Farm because that was the one I grew up on. I remember being surprised that not everyone has a piano in their house because to me, it was like having potted plants or having all the furniture in your house built by your Grandad... Apparently we were different... go figure.
