counting the bodies in the morning ~

[lookingland]

it's snowing in the most lovely way imaginable right now.

so i wake up this morning, having slept a little better than usual as of late, and emerge to this newly whitened world and a sky all soft with crystals and after a brisk trot around the block with the dogs, come to my desk to find the carnage of last night's deranged assault on the paper dolls of the world.

now, i'm pretty bad about leaving my desk "as is" when i'm in the middle of projects, but this is pretty messy even for me.



at any rate, i'm going to finish tackling this one and see if i can't come up with something i will be satisfied with. the odds are totally against me (this is now about the fiftieth variation), but it keeps me otherwise out of trouble.

i keep meaning to take pictures of the snow, but always forget my camera when i go out. i'm not too bright that way, am i?

and finally, in a bit of randomness, here is a really really really cool sculpture i came across this morning by daniel chester french called Benediction. if i had a favorite sculptor, i think french would be my man (in spite of that whole lincoln thing). my favorite piece of his is his Death and the Sculptor which you can see at that link (it's the first image).
