She thinks she was born-to-fly but can’t seem to get up the speed to get off the ground.
Inspired by Stefan Bucher’s The Daily Monster
Mabel Mumster the Matriarch now looks tame by comparison . . .
This is a Mabel Mumster, Matriarch of the Monster Family.
She’s a beauty as is evidenced by her beauty mark.
She’s ambidextrous as is evidenced by her detachable arms.
She’s extremely intelligent as is evidenced by her exploding brain.
Mumster, ink blob
I just watched a video workshop Drawing Daily Monsters: Finding Inspiration in a Drop of Ink by Stefan Bucher. Stefan teaches how he creates his monsters. He challenged everyone to make some kind, any kind, of creation every day for 100 days. Here’s my day one . . . however, as you all know, I rarely finish any challenge to do 100 of anything. (I used his ink-blob download for her cuz I don’t have no ink)
True confessions: I’m addicted to sugar and Stefan Bucher. Stefan draws, actually, Stefan gives birth to a daily monster. (The labor pains have been decades in the makings).
Stefan drew Monster #292, asked a question and I replied. My response was, I’m sure, “fed” (pun intended) by my most recent vow to not imbibe in refined sugar for this month. Stefan’s reply to my comment was to refer me to this comedy video. I would have found it to be quite funny if it hadn’t set off obsessive thoughts about key lime, berry, lemon, apple, cherry and chocolate fudge.
Pi” “Being an irrational number, (obsessive thinking regarding pie is always irrational) π cannot be expressed exactly as a common fraction, (because once you eat a delicious piece of pie it never again can be a fraction of a piece of pie nor considered common) although fractions such as 22/7 and other rational numbers are commonly used to approximate π. Consequently its decimal representation never ends and never settles into a permanent repeating pattern. The digits appear to be randomly distributed although, to date, no proof of this has been discovered. Also, π is a transcendental number (if you’ve ever tasted a morsel of mouth-watering pi you are indeed having a transcendental experience)– a number that is not the root of any non-zero polynomial having rational coefficients. This transcendence of π implies that it is impossible to solve the ancient challenge of squaring the circle with a compass and straight-edge.”
(We all know pies are round:) “Because its definition relates to the circle, π is found in many formulae in trigonometry and geometry, (gastronomy) especially those concerning circles, ellipses or spheres. It is also found in formulae used in other branches of science such as cosmology, number theory,statistics, fractals, thermodynamics, mechanics, (french pastry) and electromagnetism. The ubiquity of π makes it one of the most widely known mathematical constants (and culinary delights) both inside and outside the scientific community: Several (cook)books devoted to it have been published, the number is celebrated on Pi Day where calculations of the digits of π ( in record-setting pie eating contests) often result in news headlines. Attempts to memorize (and digest) the value of π with increasing precision have led to records of over 67,000 digits” (of ant-acid tablets).
