My extreme fear of death motivates so many drawings. Some days (like today) I'm actually grateful for it. :-)

heh, nice thought...
ReplyDeleteI hope you live long enough to build your own library !
;-)
I always like the conceptual nature of your entries. They are always thought provoking.
ReplyDeleterock on! (err, read on!) nice quote, too. funny you should ask about the cold here, i turned the heat on just minutes ago! :(
ReplyDeleteRead on, Willie! Who knows-- maybe it will work!
ReplyDeletewhat about skinny dipping and having a new tattoo, there's still time for that too!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteReally distinctive!
hey, that's an idea !!! fun image !!
ReplyDeleteNeat Piece! You are not alone...I also love to collect books!
ReplyDelete(So what new books did you acquire today? ;) Any recommendations?)
ReplyDeletecool.
ReplyDeleteI love the last three.
especially the fire hydrant image.
Ha, ha! I like it, I like it! Yeah, I think I do something like that to.
ReplyDeleteVery nice concept, made me smile! Fear of death makes us do all sorts of silly things!
ReplyDeletenot to think about it...? tis a fateful decision, that.
ReplyDeletevery nice thought, i haven't thought about books like that before and i have a lot of books too. no fear of death here though, just as long as it is a quick one...
ReplyDeleteMy house is full, I've read most of them... better get off to the bookstore
ReplyDeleteI've never understood how anyone could make a living working in a bookstore. How do they manage to leave there without spending their paycheck?
ReplyDeleteanother great friday, sir willie! thanks for the kind words.
ReplyDeleteSo perhaps I could use the same logic with my dishes. I have so many dish sets that I hope to use. :-)This is very clever.
ReplyDeleteI think book buying is a healthy addiction. One great thing about books is that many (especially art books) become more valuable because they usually only have one printing so over time they become worth more. I love books!
ReplyDeleteAmen! I suscribe to your plan...
ReplyDeleteso THATS why i have so many!!!
ReplyDeleteoh, yes, continue writing and drawing! (the motive doesn't matter)
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing... most end up getting dusty on the shelf because I work too much.
ReplyDeleteI like this illo willie!
ReplyDeleteHeaven to me is an unendng pile of wonderful books.

That read like a Post Secret entry! I hope your strategy works well for you:>
ReplyDeleteYour entry made me smile. (And it's definitely PS worthy.) Thanks for giving me a reason to the bewildered look my husband always gives me when I tell him about yet another book purchase. :P
ReplyDeleteExcellent - that must be what's motivating me, secretly, of course - because I have so many books am not sure I'll ever find time to read half of them.
ReplyDeleteI am totally in agreement with Scarlet on that. Tomorrow is always better.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about buying books! I got piles of them every where, never quite get round to reading them though, but I try.
ReplyDeleteNice illustration too, very unique.
Great image! I noticed that you have listed Confederacy of Dunces as one of your favorite books. I loved that book as well. Ignatius was hilarious.

love the quote, sometimes a very wise thing to do. :-)
ReplyDeletethanks for the laugh
ReplyDeleteOhhh... good luck then, Willie :)
ReplyDeleteThat`s so... concise?
ReplyDeleteI mean, the colors, the composition, the phrase, the intensity...
Interesting.
err...
do have a nice day, ok?:)
hmmm... please:)
Very nice, Willie. But...trying to escape death is like trying to bail a sinking ship! (Have a nice day anyway)
ReplyDeletehope it works! :D
