I’m getting fat. So my wife says. Sadly I have to agree, a belt of extra thickness has accumulated above the hem of my pants and I can’t wait to see it gone.
Don’t worry, I won’t nausesate you with any imagery, I know my limits.

I started a new series of watercolors of women in the mirror today. I have a mixed relationsship with female vanity, at once attracted by the beauty it produces and repelled by the fact that it’s often connected with low self-esteem.
Woops, I’d better get back on the treadmill…
Stay tuned for more drawings in the coming days.
