Earth, Wind, and Autumn Sky
A new moleskine pocket notebook, a new back pocket to decorate and work forward from, and the autumn has been in my thoughts a lot lately (it’s my favorite time of year; I would dwell here forever if I could).

Back Cover
More work added to the back cover of my pocket cahier; it might be finished now, but you never know when I might get inspired to add something else.
Back Cover
With a new sketchbook comes new covers to decorate; this is the beginning of the back cover of my new cahier pocket molie.
The Back Cover
As has become my custom, my stream-of-thought impressions/poems/daily musings start in the front of the book and my artwork starts in the back, so the inside of the back cover was the next thing to get decorated. This is some sharpie marker and some micron pen.
Because the Night
The back cover of my ‘sleepless’ molie; I’ve had these lyrics stuck in my head for the past several days. In 1978 Patti Smith recorded a song called ‘Because the Night.’ The song was written and recorded originally by Bruce Springsteen but he didn’t include it on ‘Darkness on the Edge of Town,’ the album he was working on at the time (in the studio next door to where Patti Smith was recording, which is how she was introduced to it). Springtseen just released an album of some of his ‘lost’ work from the Darkness sessions and I’ve had it stuck in my head since I heard it yesterday. It seemed like a fitting last note to my ‘sleepless’ journey.
