O’Betty’s in Athens, OH
According to O’Betty’s website, the eatery is located in the Cameron building, the smallest building in Uptown Athens. Originally built as a barber shop, the venue has been the home of other restaurants, such as Seven Sauces, The Strawberry Patch, The Korean Restaurant, DV8, The Redbud Cafe, and finally and lastly, O’Betty’s. I fondly remember Redbud Cafe; but, whenever I bite into one of O’Betty’s delicious hot dogs, I’m overcome with amnesia, euphoria, and dejavú.

Technical: I used my own reference photo to make this quirky iPad painting in Sketch Club with an Apple Pencil. The composition took me about 3 hours over the span of several days and consists of 6,486 brush strokes on 3 layers. I then tweaked the image in iColorama.
Steve Zarate, lyricist, vocalist, and instrumentalist (Athens, OH)
Back on September 7, 2024 I took a photo of Steve Zarate performing live at the Athens Farmers Market. Over the last few days I’ve been rendering a freehand, digital image of that reference photo on my iPad Pro using an Apple Pencil and the Sketch Club app with a tweak or two in iColorama. Steve’s music complements the fresh and funky feel of the Market.

Thank you for the clarification, Senator Scott.
Subaru Dealership Waiting Room Guitar Man
Waiting Room Guitar Man…I put it that way because, one a Jorma scale from 1 to 10, this is maybe a 2, maybe a 2.5.
30,000 mile service. Time to dig in. Looks like I deviated a little from Jorma’s actual countenance based on this screenshot of him and Jack.

I was happy with the outcome. I’ll let these images speak for themselves.
Shipmates in Tromsø
Our last night above the Arctic Circle we met some folks from Mexico who were also hoping to see the Northern Lights. We were lucky! Ipad artwork in Sketch Club.

Jorma’n Tommy
A freehand quick sketch based on a reference screenshot from a YouTube video (see below) featuring old friends Jorma Kaukonen and Tommy Emmanuel playing a Roy Book Binder song in 2023. See also this 2014 post of Jorma in which I refer to my own weekend at the Fur Peace Ranch back in the early 2000s.
