Swimming in the adjoining ponds of imagination
July 15, 2010
The koi fishes of the latest large koi drawing (bottom picture) have friends in the earlier drawings. I’ve never seen the drawings together — except here on my computer. My studio is too small for me to look at the other koi while I work on new ones. But I have to wonder how big my koi pond has gotten … if I put all my koi pictures together.
Suffice to say I’ve used up a bunch of blue crayons of various shades. And I work so much and yet I hardly ever get wet. And saying that, I realize now that I really need to get myself to a swimming pool. It’s mid-July! But I love my fishies almost too much to take time away from them.
Life’s a beach koi pond.
