Spent the day drawing MAD Magazine strips until my eyes were bleeding sugar candy syrup, and now an Irish pub beckons. Because the emerald green hills of Ireland are anywhere sporting verdigris and Guinness.

Ooooh, had a good weekend. Lot’s of painting. On Saturday “The Big Lebowski” was playing at the Egyptian Theater, a restored old theater up in Coos Bay, so Cedra Wood and I went up there, checked out the Coos Bay Art Museum, got a bite, saw the show, and had a lovely time. Then Sunday, back to painting.

So, have begun to settle in here in Oregon. Just spent the last 8 hours drawing. Take breaks to walk, stretch my back and legs. Feeling good. Feeling SO ready to ramp up these long days of work (I have a few more hours to go today) after a week of driving.

I’m on the road, from Arizona to Oregon. Many people and stops to see along the way. I should be there by the 18th. All strips have been uploaded, so, barring any significant issues, it SHOULD go smoothly. I’ll have intermittent email and web access during the drive, so I’ll keep on eye on things and do my best to address any problems. Cheers! -Christopher

Another long walk to the end of the world this morning. The rolling red sandstone lumps/hills (as I found out several days ago) end with a several hundred feet drop-off. Breathtaking.
And I actually get vertigo if I get too close to an edge like this, so I dropped to my belly and wriggled up to it. Worth it for the shot and memory.

Growing up, my parents took us every Easter to see the sunrise. I’m not religious, but here and there through the years I’ve tried to do it. I find it such a lovely way to start a day, and it has often baffled me: how many sunrises do I actually see, let alone sit down and watch? I’ve had entire YEARS go by without doing so ONCE.
Anyhow, EVERY day this past month I’ve walked out into te desert to see the sunrise (two exceptions, once so i could get ready for an early hike elsewhere, and the other because I was feeling unwell), preceeding a day full of work. I almost didn’t go this Easter morning because being contrary often amuses me, but I went anyways. My only remaining wish being that I had a bucket full of waxy chocolate bunnies to round out the morning.
