Back To Life

Alright, I haven't posted anything in a month, and quite the month it has been.

I have spent pretty much all of my time either rehearsing or performing Much Ado About Nothing with the wonderful folks of SMASH, with a few days taken off for snow or sickness. Marry, I'm already suffering from P.T.S.D.  (Post Traumatic Smash Disorder) which my friend Petra talks about here.

Moreover, here are some of my favourite shots from the performances, taken by my brother Adam.

Claudio, Don Pedro, Leonato, and Benedick in the orchard. 

 The watch interrogating Conrade and Borachio. Yup, I'm Borachio. The one with the bright red vest.

 The Villains! Conrade, Don John, and Borachio.

The first wedding scene. Beatrice, Hero, Leonato, Bendick, and Antonio. "This looks not like a nuptial!"

And lastly.... In order to stay on topic and talk a little bit about something artsy, here are some of my most recent drawings. All of characters from the play, of course! I have 8 sketches down, 67 more to go...

 George Bruce Seacoal, the loveliest member of the watch! 

 Dogberry, the leader of the watch, who doesn't know anything about anything :P.

 Hugh Oatcake, another watchmen. (Yes, I know, his right eye seems to be trying to run away...)

And to conclude; below is a picture of roses my mother gave to me last night. Are they not beautiful? Since I got my Olympus "fancy" camera I have slowly gotten better at using only manual settings. I took this picture this morning and it required no editing, not even to be cropped. I think that is a milestone.

Yes. I styled this post after Dogberry's speech. What now.
