64 Crayons

I am an art nerd. Many guys in Wisconsin count Bass Pro Shops as their happy place. Me? I'll take a good art supply store any day of the week. Oh, I have a few tackle boxes, they're just packed with paint tubes, pen nibs, and drawing pencils of varying lead grades. When I was in high school, I loved getting the latest Dick Blick publication in the mail. More than just an art supply catalog, it was filled with pages and pages of creative possibilities.  As I perused materials and mediums I'd never seen before, much less worked with, my eye was always drawn to the …

Independence Day Part 2

Here in America, amidst the parades and fireworks and meat on the grill, it's easy to overlook an important fact: July 4th used to be a blank square on the calendar. On many calendars throughout the world, it still is. But almost 250 years ago, a ragtag bunch of rebels stood up to the world power and premier fighting force of its time. It started a pretty big fight that eventually, they won. No one gave them permission. It's not like there was a day on the calendar that said, "Today's the day, guys!" They got together and just...decided. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears …

Thou Shalt Always Be Positive

[ In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the release of Penguins Can’t Fly this month, this is the fourth in a series of lessons we can learn from some historical rulebreakers, Wilbur and Orville Wright. ] Be positive!
