Happy – iPad art
I am a compulsive doodler, I like to make little drawings all over the place and delight in strange little images in my notebooks.
Recently I have taken to using Bamboo bad SketchPad on the iPad to do sketches there.
Like most of my doodles they are simple, silly,not very good, but at least performed with gusto. The first long time doodle I did in SketchPad is called Happy and for no other reason than it expresses my intense strangeness I am inordinately proud of it.
I have posted it here because I like it that much, feel free to hate it or laugh at any perceived lack of talent. I personally prefer enthusiasm, as that is mostly what I have in abundance.
Jelly Fish
I am fascinated by Jelly Fish when you see them in aquariums. It is something about the movement that tantalises my attention, I find it rhythmically enticing, it lures me towards it. Thankfully I don’t do scuba as I would likely end up in a swarm of them being stung into oblivion.
There is also something repugnant about them, they look like they have mucus strung from them, as if a shark sneezed and it swam away. I find this intriguing as well.
So they are hitting something on a boundary between fascination or enticement and revulsion or fear when I see them, perhaps that contradictory state, ambivalent in some ways, it what draws me in closer.
The angler and the lure…
I was just successfully fished by a creature with no brain, awesome. A bit of video from Blackpool Sea Life Centre follows:
