It May not Look Like Teeth

But teeth are exactly what I was thinking about when I started this drawing. And my jaw. This may be the first of a long series of tooth-drawing moments in my future if I decide to go ahead with the whole braces and orthognathic surgery thing (yep that's what they call it, I can't even pronounce it). I'm thinking about blogging the process - but only if I can get comfortable taking pictures of my face.

Three Days of Drawings, Three Days of Maxing Out

It's been a rough week - work stress as usual and three doctor appointments (periodontist, oral surgeon, and orthopod). Treatment of my shoulder may require surgery but for now we're just doing anti-inflammatory stuff because I don't want to miss 6-8 more weeks of swimming. My hip will require a physical therapist - to start. Mostly, I just want to be free of the pain. Seriously, I've been running/swimming/biking in pain for so long, I can't remember a time it didn't exist. I just expect it. Bracing myself for it is now my routine.

Knots and Dives

My husband thought today's drawing looked like a knot - specifically the "one in his back." I think I was distracted and worked on nothing more than a blob because my new pen was somehow destroyed overnight while soaking in cleaning solution (it appears the plastic part dissolved - well either that or someone or something dismantled it while I was asleep).

Daily [Pain] Drawing

It never gets better. It never gets worse. It just always hurts, and I'm getting tired of it. And tired of canceled doctor appointments. And tired of doctors in general. I'm not giving up the thing I love to do until I cannot do it. So I live with the constant pain.

Out of Season

Today the temperature hit an unseasonable 60 degrees F in Cleveland and I almost realized how slow I am on the bike due to lack of training and some serious weight gain. I averaged 16mph on the way out but when I turned around I was then "with the wind" and averaging well over 20mph. Who knew? I also confirmed what I already suspected: Peanut Butter Gu is one of the all-time greatest treats. I'm still sad about how heavy I am these days, so I drew my fat.

More 3-D

My limited mental time these days has allowed me time for only one non-work-related creative endeavor, so I've been continuing to have fun with Play-Doh. Here are my 3-D sketches for yesterday and today.

Lack of Focus

I started this drawing thinking about trains (after listening to a song involving a train), but I couldn't stay focused and it all went to hell from the top down and it was done when I finally ran out of ink.
