tiredness is becoming annoying...

my weekend hasn't been great, but there is always tomorrow to look forward to, i can kind of guess what'll be happening, i think its called being knackered! I could try and complete another drawing, to try and keep myself half awake i suppose, we'll see what happens. These are my latest creations, and none of them are portraits. I don't think i'll ever be a portrait artist, i would never be flattering, i tend to squeeze out some kind of unhealthy aspect to a person, a menacing grin or large nostrils or excessive hair, its just something i feel i need to do...its got to have some form of uglyness attached to it. That really makes my day. No, i won't apologise! :)

when you get older your body begins to fall apart...

...the artist R B Kitaj once said that, and it is SO true. I don't feel too bad myself, but today i've witnessed what other people have to put up with and it is very scary. I suppose the last few weeks have been a real eye opener, but then again, all this was evident from many years ago, its just that now its all much more worrying. I should be thinking about something else.
