Discovering the value of shade (Drawing: Right hand drawing)
While trying to draw a hand I discover that shade shapes.
The book “Drawing with the right side of the brain” instructs you to draw three drawings before you receive any instruction to create a kind of base line. That’s because people tend to forget how bad they were. At the end of the book you [...] -

Drawing: Boy in swimming trunk
Drawing a portrait from a picture instead of from memory.
For the second assignment of the “Drawing on the right side of the brain” book I should have drawn a portrait from memory. But being autistic I found that I can’t remember the eyes of anyone I would want to draw.
So instead I drew an portrait [...] -

Assignment (Drawing: Selfportrait)
Fulfilling the first assignment of “Drawing on the right side of the brain”.
As I mentioned a few days ago I’ve bought Drawing on… That is, actually I wanted to buy an other book about drawing but Amazon advised to buy this one as well. As such things go, I’m now reading Drawing on… and the [...] -
Autism
Need to repeat
I’ve finally found a solution to a problem that has been bugging me for the last 30 years.
For the last 30 years or so I’ve been talking to myself. Well, not really talking to myself. I had imaginary talks with other people.

After putting it of for a while I finally made my first drawing of a pond with a tree.
The problem is that I don’t have any idea about how I should do this. So I hoped that I at least get the colors right.
But then. When [...] -

Problems with Popular Post Plugin
Updating my Popular Post table by hand because the plugin doesn’t work.
Have you ever wondered how it is possible that really ugly music reaches the first place in the billboard singles chart?
The billboard singles chart is a comparative report of the amount of singles sold. Which means that the amount of singles that an artist [...] -

Drawing: Smoke
I had a bit of inspiration.
While I was thinking about the colors, shapes and structure or water this shape came to me. Although purple isn’t a color you would expect to find reflected in water, I will need the shape. This fading away of colors. So I thought I might as well do this drawing [...] -

Twisted toilet habbits
10.22.07 | Permalink | 4 CommentsAutism causes some problems with feeling the need to relief myself. (A somewhat graphic description.)
For years I’ve had this annoying habit of having to go when ever I left for somewhere or arrived somewhere.
In my teens I didn’t think anything about it. I just did. At times my mother would get very angry because of [...]
