Sketchpads & being bi polar

noreply@blogger.com (Philipbroad: illustro cat) — Sat, 7 Mar 2015 06:14:00 -0800

Some of my own images to look at following an intense scanning session,

The pads are not for sale, they're more of a description of how I was feeling at a manic time in life.

I saw a thing on channel 4 the other day and while watching it thought, that's me! I have all those problems and feel that way almost all the time.

I have soaring highs and crashing lows but try to balance it out with medication.

I was very proud of myself at one point for feeling that I didn't need the medication but that was delusional. I'll attach a link about the program to keep my readers informed.

Enjoy

Subject: Whose spider is that?

Dear Jane,
Are you sure this drawing of a spider is the one I sent you? This spider only has seven legs and I do not feel I would have made such an elementary mistake when I drew it.

Subject: Re: Whose spider is that?

Dear David,
Yes it is the same drawing. I copied and pasted it from the email you sent me on the 8th. David your account is still overdue by the amount of $233.95.
Please make this payment as soon as possible.

Subject: Re: Re: Whose spider is that?

Hello, I am back and have read through your emails and accept that despite missing a leg, that drawing of a spider may indeed be the one I sent you. I realise with hindsight that it is possible you rejected the drawing of a spider due to this obvious limb ommission but did not point it out in an effort to avoid hurting my feelings. As such, I am sending you a revised drawing with the correct number of legs as full payment for any amount outstanding. I trust this will bring the matter to a conclusion.
Regards, David.

I understand and will definitely make a payment this week if I remember. As you have not accepted my second drawing as payment, please return the drawing to me as soon as possible. It was silly of me to assume I could provide you with something of completely no value whatsoever, waste your time and then attach such a large amount to it.

I fully intend to research this area thoroughly based on my Gandhi Painting which I made earlier this year.
