Rather unusually, a second entry for today

Close-up photograph of an open sketchbook spread resting on a bed. A large self-portrait fills most of the left page, showing a bald man with round glasses, moustache and beard, drawn in fine black lines. A broad grey crayon shape surrounds the head, and the shirt is filled with bright orange crayon. The right page contains drawings of the objects beside the bed, including an orange Stanley mug, a teapot, a spoon and a patterned tray. Across the upper right is a block of green with the handwritten words, “Listening to ‘The Infinite Sadness of Small Appliances’,” and the date 23-9-26. A round mirror and orange mug are partly visible above the sketchbook.

Real tea and an audiobook kept me drawing until the sun came up.

Now I’ve let the chickens out and had some breakfast, I think I’m going to have a nap — possibly quite a long one.

I wonder why I feel embarrassed posting this drawing here…
