The lonely butcher and his love missives. 
I was paging through one of my anatomy books and fell in love with the shape/color of the spleen.... somehow that turned into this faux-anatomical apartment complex.  When I get a chance I think I'm going to make a mess of apartments in this fashion.  (less veins, though, they are a pain and get confusing when you're trying to paint the pencil sketch-- which part goes where?)

So of course everything is crazy this time of year-- holidays, getting packages off in time (which means paying more than I ought to, grr UPS), and in my case having the joy (sic) of my car breaking down and for all intents & purposes going to that great salvage yard in the sky.  (ok, really, it's going to the great salvage yard in Ruckersville, but whatever).   Sigh... hope everyone is navigating this odd time of year well enough.  Good luck!  I may be absent from the blog/flickr world for a little bit but I'll come back with lots of good things to share.
