This is a fused glass plate that I made this week.

This doodle is more interesting if you can guess what inspired it:

This one requires a bit of an explanation.  Where I work, the map library is in a building that has a tree pit in the middle of it.  It’s not really a courtyard because you can’t go out there, just gaze at the stately maple through the window.  Squirrels like to jump into the pit from above, though, to get maple helicopters and such.  The walls are so sheer and relatively smooth that the squirrels can’t come out, and they come and gaze hungrily at the map collection cubicle dwellers.  Eventually the landscapers lower a squirrel ladder into the tree.  Sometimes more squirrels climb in by the ladder, but eventually they leave, the ladder is removed, and it’s a temporary squirrel-free zone again.

What the rest of us call bowls.

And another item from the sketchbook:

This made me think of a wallpaper design after I drew it. And old-timey one.

One for you dog lovers:

Perhaps the one I’ll pop tomorrow at Thanksgiving dinner.

Last in the four-part series of drawings of screens and such.  Actually, this one is kind of supposed to be a mirror.  Hence the title.  But I think it goes in the series anyway.

“Amateur Hour,” another drawing in the “screen series.”
