Funny Face
Sculpture by Nefarious, painting by Shannon… It's hard for me to paint this small because I have to try and time my hand motions between tremors but it's a lot of fun. If my hands were steadier I'd love to make little toys. Maybe I'll go get some Fimo or something.
Nefarious is leaving for California in a few days (come out and be sad). I have no idea if her memory will be as fragmented as mine because I don't really know if my memory is broken because of something like Korsakoff's Syndrome (ie. chronic alcoholism) or if it's something genetic that she could inherit. In any case, I don't want her to forget me so I'm actually quite looking forward to writing kids books and making toys and so on to send her. If you've got a kid that's about the same age as Nefarious let me know when I mention that I've done a book because I think I'll bind a few of them and fantasize that I could actually have a career writing and drawing kids stories.
It was suggested to me that I take all of her old PJs that are too small for her and sew them into a giant quilt/blanket and I thought that was just a wonderful idea — I don't know if that's just my own obsession with memory artifacts speaking or if it's something other people would appreciate?
Well, supper calls.
