My desk

Posted on November 27, 2015 by cmkmarquis

I have my own desk for the first time in nearly two years. Madison has his own desk, too. This sketch is a peek at my little desk nook, and everything about it makes me happy. Not much else to … Continue reading →

Happiness is made in Maine

Posted on November 21, 2015 by cmkmarquis

Happiness can, in fact, be purchased at a store. If you want some, visit L.L.Bean in Freeport, Maine. Or go online. But be warned: these slippers are always backordered this time of year. . I’ve been on a bit of … Continue reading →

Movie night

Posted on October 28, 2015 by cmkmarquis

Burnt popcorn! Can’t even remember what we were watching, but popcorn always makes it feel like an event, not just a pre-bed collapse on the couch. Oh wait! I do remember. We just discovered Silicon Valley. We had been told … Continue reading →

One of those days

Posted on October 15, 2015 by cmkmarquis

Ugh. Work today just felt like work, a yet-to-be-resolved scheduling conflict looms ever closer, an evening bike ride spent dodging runners and swarms of tiny flies left me more rather than less stressed, and my racing mind wasn’t listening to … Continue reading →

Weekend mornings

Posted on October 13, 2015 by cmkmarquis

When they’re not spent rushing off to some weekend commitment, eight o’clock to noon on Saturday mornings are my four favorite hours of the week, followed closely by the same four hours the next day. There is something so liberating … Continue reading →

Windowsills

Posted on October 12, 2015 by cmkmarquis

I suspect this might be the first of many appearances by this little guy. We only have about five plants in our apartment, and I love drawing leaves and flowers. Of course I can also go outside (or buy more … Continue reading →

Friday night

Posted on October 8, 2015 by cmkmarquis

I love sketching in cafes, bars, and restaurants. It’s the prefect place to draw people because they’re moving enough that you’re forced to keep the sketch loose but not so much that you can’t capture them. It also feels more … Continue reading →

The new to-do list

Posted on October 6, 2015 by cmkmarquis

For the past few weeks to-do lists have been working really well for me. I think it’s because I’ve just adopted a ‘new day, new list’ policy. Usually I make rambling to-do lists with a mix of long-term and short-term … Continue reading →

Thoughts on laundry

Posted on October 6, 2015 by cmkmarquis

Laundry is my least favorite household chore. Hands down. My preference for household chores can be roughly plotted according to ‘satisfaction upon completion’ versus ‘distaste for the actual task.” On both fronts, laundry scores at the losing end of the … Continue reading →

Unwinding

Posted on October 5, 2015 by cmkmarquis

We don’t watch TV particularly often, but it is a favorite way to unwind during the busy workweek. Ordinarily I would be doing nothing while watching – multitasking stresses me out. But sketching doesn’t feel like multitasking. And there’s something … Continue reading →
