Developing Usable Experiences

The eyes (or feet) have it…

It’s getting late. I never seem to be caught up. There are more readings to do, more drawings to do, more projects to think about. Am I complaining? Heavens no. I asked for this. The challenge is part of the reward. That’s what I tell myself at least.

Doesn’t help that I’m listening to Nina Simone. Something about her voice, the music, her words. Sad pretty much. Even her “happy songs”. Like she says, “Do what you gotta do.” And I am.

One of those things that I gotta do is drawing exercises for my design class. Not that I don’t like drawing, forcing myself to draw is a good thing, but sometimes my patience wears thin when what I’m knowing I can draw doesn’t show up at my fingertips.

Anyway, it’s about time for me to go to bed. I told myself no later than 11:00 PM tonight. I’ve seen midnight more times than I care to mention the last couple weeks. Seeing how I get up around 6:00 AM, crashing at midnight doesn’t really allow me the beauty sleep needed. Oh well…who am I kidding. What’s beauty got to do with anything. I’m not going to win any contests.

Image: So I had to change the drawing. It is still a sketch I did for class, but not one that I’m ashamed to show. The eyes were just plain bad. More work is needed with my drawing skills…

    You know what would be fun and interesting? Do a series of these to show the seasons…of course that won’t work if you wear the sandles all year long… :)

    What a trip. I thought I was one of the only people in the world that listened to Nina Simone! She is amazing isn’t she?
