I am back to drawing Library People. This is #112 in the series. It is a graphite drawing on the inside of a discarded library book. Since my husband is between jobs, like so many other Americans, it seemed like a good time to go back to these, as they usually sell. I'm not going to pretend this will get us through the current hard economical times, but we'll all do what we can.
We are trying to sell our house here in Phoenix so we can move back to North Carolina, buy a farm, and do more recycled art. Anyone looking for a nice home in Phoenix? Have I got a bargain for you.
Our family has decided to all paint rocks this year for Christmas presents, since we're trying to save for the aforementioned move. There are a lot of rocks in Arizona, so you can pick them up just about anywhere, and they're free, which is a big selling point, since even discarded library books cost money. It will certainly make for an interesting holiday.
Or not.

I have just bid on this fine fellow. Whether I am the winner remains to be seen.

wow, great stuff. May I ask who the library people are? They all seem so sad and "discarded".
Sorry I missed it. I will try again on another.
This is a nice drawing, lovely and subtle. Good luck with your move,
amazing image…
Believe me when I say that the Library People are even more exceptional in person. I have two of Ottoblotto's beautifully drawn LPeeps - a rare treasure.
