As usual, if you see something you'd like to know more about or maybe give me filthy lucre for, by all means give the sack o' cash a poke.
Here's the money sack, by which you can communicate with me! Symbolism!

March 2016This is it: the first of many museum doodles. This is a drawing of just the head of a massive wall relief of a genie. I decided to draw this, out of all the museum had to offer, because I'd been studying ancient Sumer and this carving has Akkadian writing carved into it. So yes: this is a sketch of a carving at the Nelson-Atkins Museum. The very first I ever did. It took an incredibly long time, as I was very new. |
