for fgr & poke at it w/a stick

something i actually spend a lot of time doing . . .
the "stick" is an ancient brush
its bristles long gone
i use the ferrule to scratch through the paint
sometimes it leaves a dark line
as well as a gauge.

i have to say i am a little surprised at the lack of response on flickr
to yesterday's snap.
i thought it was so clever
but nobody seemed to get it
(you know,
the shadow of me
taking the picture of me)
or maybe
it isn't really that interesting

i guess i am just a little out of sorts
because i don't have a "project" for this month's self portraits
and i am having a lot of trouble deciding between images
(for example, i couldn't decide where to put the image below
here or swap it out with this on flickr)
maybe it all has to do with what i wrote here today...
