AM: Dreamt Tim was holding up an eggplant and painting it.
PM: Memory drawing of old Chinese lady I saw today who’d converted her umbrella into a carrying device (known as a shoulder pole I learned by googling “Chinese over shoulder carrying”)
AM: Dreamt I was sitting in front seat of truck with Blake from American Idol and another couple. We were watching a movie displayed in the air in front of us and I kept fiddling unsuccessfully with the remote trying to fast forward.
AM: Dreamt that this doorman named Jack got a phone call and they dropped the phone out the window to him, almost hitting two lady shoppers.
PM: Memory drawing of Richard from the back as he worked on my computer wearing a jacket and cap because he was cold and so was I but didn’t think of turning on the heat.

I love these drawing exercises, such a fun odd mix of real and dreamed makes a terrific narrative!

This looks a fun exercise. It must be hard to draw something as vague and undefined as a dream.

And I thought I was the only one who watched American Idol.

Hi Jana,
I have to admit it took some pondering to get up the nerve to ask you this. I’ve recently found your blog, and I enjoy your work very much. I’ve been through most, but not all of your blog, and your website. I see that you have done many paintings using Illustration Friday’s themes. I’ve just found that site too, through yours. On my blog, I’ve recently started a themed creativity exercise I call Read It ‘n’ Sketch It. I was hoping that you might have the time to try a round of Read In ‘n’ Sketch It. Having an artist of your calibre do a round would do much for Read It ‘n’ Sketch It, not to mention the fact that I’d be thrilled.
Thanks
Frank
