This is Gavin. He lives with my friend, Cindy. He’s been losing weight lately, and no one can figure out why. His blood work comes back normal, and everything else that can be checked also looks fine. He’s a great horse. If anyone knows why a horse might inexplicably lose weight, please let me know.

I’ve mentioned Roz Stendahl before. She’s the creator of International Fake Journal Month and the woman behind Roz Wound Up, one of the most inspiring art blogs I’ve ever come across. Well, now she’s up to something new. She’s devised a plan to infiltrate everyone else’s sketchbooks and journals. She’s even started a contest to encourage people to draw her. Check out the details here: http://rozwoundup.typepad.com/roz_wound_up/project-journal-infiltration-2010.html.
To participate in the actual contest, you have to draw her from life, which means being in Minneapolis, where I’m obviously not. As a gesture of solidarity, though, I’ve drawn her from a photo. This is Roz participating in a dog drawing event sponsored by Wet Paint Art .

This is a portrait of Julia Kay, founder of Julia Kay’s Portrait Party. The Portrait Party is an amazing online exchange among artists in which everyone draws, paints, or otherwise creates a non-photographic portrait of everyone else. Check it out here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/portraitparty/
The creative energy in this group is incredible, and I’m thrilled to be able to participate. More portraits coming up!
To see some of Julia’s work, take a look at her Flickr stream (http://www.flickr.com/photos/7540599@N08/) and her website (http://studiojuliakay.com/art/).
