I have a series of photographs taken in this very old graveyard in the middle of Uxbridge. All the pictures were taken in the fall, probably because that’s when we take a lot of pictures and there are many old trees there. The stones themselves are a history of the valley. Old gravestones can be amusing and historically interesting. You also meet a lot of photographers and historians in cemeteries.
Considering the age of this particular cemetery, you think there might be ghosts?

That’s exactly what Garry AND Owen both said. It does have that Halloweeny look to it.

Deep in my heart, I wanted to be a cartoonist. I think this is as close as I’m going to get. I added the ghosts as an after thought. First the little guy, then bigger one. I was surprised it came out so well. VERY surprised.

This one’s great — keep working at it — maybe scan a sketch and play with the scanned copy rather than the original, to begin with, until you have built some confidence ~ ~ ~ You’re doing super well with the drawings!

I’m getting better at things I couldn’t do at all a month ago. There are a lot of technical questions I still need answers — things like fixatives to keep pencil drawings from smearing or fading. How does one mount a pencil sketch? Special paper? Personally, I think I could make some good-looking tee shirts. Or greeting cards — but I can’t draw a heart to save my life 🐱💻

I really like that one~! Now is there a good story to go with it~? Or maybe even a good poem.

I’m not much of a poet, but I’m open to ideas. I like the little ghost who knows he’s supposed to scare someone, but he’s too scared to scare anyone 👀
