Robot of the Week / December 15

Portland, OR / December 4 - 13

It's not the way you smiled that touched my heart. It's not the way you kiss that tears me apart. Many many nights roll by. I sit alone at home and cry, over you. What can I do? I can't help myself, myself, cause baby it's you. Baby it's you. You should hear what they say about you. They say, they say, you've never, never, been true. Doesn't matter what they say, I know I'm gonna love you any old way. What can I do? When it's true? I don't want nobody, nobody, cause baby it's you. Baby it's you. Many, many nights roll by, I sit alone at home and cry, over you. What can I do? Can't help myself, myself, because baby it's you. I can't help myself, myself, because baby it's you. Baby it's you. Don't leave me alone. Come on home. Baby it's you. Whoa, what can I do?
- Lyrics from "Baby It's You" by Dolly Mixture

“Never let go of hope. One day you will see that it all has finally come together. What you have always wished for has finally come to be. You will look back and laugh at what has passed and you will ask yourself... 'How did I get through all of that?"

Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.

Sexy Pie

How I started my morning.

Portland, OR to Palo Alto, CA to Portland, OR / November 24 - November 28

No! Absolutely nothing... No! I regret nothing. Neither the good that I've done nor the bad. All this is much the same to me! No! Absolutely nothing... No! I regret nothing... It is paid, swept away, forgotten. I don't care about the past! With my souvenirs I lit a fire. My sorrows, my pleasures I need them no more! Swept away the love affairs. With their tremors swept away forever, I leave with nothing... No! Absolutely nothing... No! I regret nothing. Neither the good that I've done nor the bad. All this is much the same to me! No! Absolutely nothing... No! I regret nothing... Because my life, because my joys, today that begins with you!
- Lyrics from "Non, je ne regrette rien"

Robots

I draw robots. Lots of robots. I've filled an entire sketch book full of them and I've started another. I made a book called Robot Book I. There will be a second. I love robots. This was my first robot sketch. Ever.

The use of traveling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.
– Samuel Johnson
