I checked to see if I had posted this one.  I scrolled through all of my napkin art entries, but this one hadn't been put up yet, so here it is.
     This couple on September 28, 2012, and I think it was a Saturday Night saw what I was doing, and requested that I paint a portrait of them.  They were nice people, so I obliged them.  I think it came out pretty good for a quick study kind of cartoon thing.  I like this piece.  I like the blue, black, and the red of the woman's hair.  I also like the space on the left which gives breathing room for the figures.
    
     I remember that it was a crowded night, and that I was sitting at the back table.  The couple is sitting side by side, so I know they were sitting on the piano bench at the back of the bar.
     Little things about the art can trigger my memory.

     Thanks for reading and looking at my art.

     To be honest, I am a little confused today.  There is a lot going on, and I am frustrated because I can't do everything at once.  In addition, my computer has so much stuff on it, that I have to get rid of as many items as possible.
     After many years on the same computer, the memory gets whittled down a bit.

     If need be, I can always mail photos to myself, and download them onto my laptop.

     I have an external hard drive, but I get confused by this particular kind, so I will just have to deal with it.

     I am just writing this stuff to help clear my head, so please forgive me.  I get overwhelmed easily by all of the things in this world.

     After twenty five years of making art, I can't keep track of everything anymore, and why would I want to?  I don't know.

     I still wish I had every piece of art that I ever made, but the truth is, most of it would probably just collect dust.

     The stuff I did in art school wasn't all that great, and neither is the stuff I am doing now.  It is too complicated to explain.

     Sometimes school taught me a lot, sometimes it confused me about all of the things I was supposed to do all the time.

     I thought art school was going to help my career, but that wasn't true.  I am back at square one, just trying to make a go of it all.

     It ain't easy.

     I wasn't going to write all this stuff, but then I say, "why not?", and then it turns into this, haha.

     I will try to have more of a sense of humor about things, like this lady said to me.  However, I didn't think she was all that funny herself, so that is why I didn't laugh.  I was more dismayed at her for not taking my art more seriously.  Does everything have to be a laugh fest?  I don't know.  Then again, what do I expect?  I paint in a bar.

     Anyway, wish me luck, I need it.  I don't even know whether or not to eat right now, because then I cook, eat, take a nap, and then I am late for work.  It is hard for me to figure everything out.  Sometimes I need an assistant, but if she was a pretty girl, I don't think I would get much work done.  I think I would be distracted.
