It’s been nearly 6 months now since I have last drawn and am thinking that the lack of exercising my outlet is starting to set a strain on me. However, I…
I didn’t like the view I had when the waitress sat us at our table, but, hey, after waiting for nearly 30 minutes for a table when we were already…
I put the finishing touches on my latest piece. It’s a mixture of pen and ink, watercolor, stamps and some light colored pencil for texture in some areas. It…
I think I’m finally starting to feel better about fitting in a sketching where/when I can. I’ve always felt like I needed to “schedule” art time or something. Today, I…
I’m telling you, I can hardly wait to get my scanner in. Amazon says it’s going to be here by Thursday, but UPS still hasn’t received the package yet. Oh,…
A sketch I did recently while at Casey Moore’s Oyster House in Tempe, Arizona near ASU. I met with my friend, Matt, a fellow artist. We hung out, rode our…
Thanks to this artist’s blog that I enjoy visiting, this post gave me an idea. Ildiko wrote the aforementioned post with two versions of the same painting, a kind of…
I love to see change and growth – both in myself and in others. I can’t exactly pinpoint why it is that it speaks to me so much, but for…
I knew that washing this 20# paper in water color would wrinkle the page, but the drawing was done and I wanted the wash in the Journal I’m working on.…
I wanted to water color wash this image, but I know the paper it was drawn on was NOT meant for that medium (as you’ll see in another post soon this…
This was one of my gifts to my lovely Staceface. I didn’t want to just give her a Visa giftcard and explain what I wanted her to be able to…
I’m not sketching/painting/creating daily right now. Tis this season to be too busy to do anything productive for yourself, but I’m certainly not complaining. I’ve actually been doing some createful…
I drew this from a children’s history text book. Just wanted to try a new pen out and see how it felt.
This is a photo of my first born, Lillian, sleeping with me only a few days old. She’s going to be ten very soon! My, how time has flown by……
I’m not exactly proud of this one – I don’t know, I guess I nailed the posture of the subject, if I had to be critical. But I’m not totally…
The pose I arranged the subjects in wasn’t my ideal pose for a family, in as much as it was a statement to commercialization of the family unit. Let me…
Type: “I lived on the east coast for a while during my enlistment in the Marines. I was in Virginia and Washington D.C. I went up to NYC one time…
Another quick drawing. Just wanted to put this out there, this was a 5 minute drawing exercise I did – I asked my daughter what subject I should draw for…
I used to go to this farm and sit in the stables while my daughter took her horseback lessons. I sat one day and watched this colt stand on the…
I had some type under that white 3×5 card, but opted not to show it because, really, it was irrelevant and distracting. As I begin to draw more and more,…
This was a really quick sketch I never finished. I love the feel of a good pen and ink drawing, but seem to lean more toward pencil as my medium…
Type: “I saw this photo essay on the Internet of the Russian invasion of Georgia and Roza Injgia was photographed, newly-widowed, standing next to her husband Meria’s, suit laid out…
One of my favorite pencil drawings I’ve ever done.
This was a fun drawing I did during an evening of art with my kids. I haven’t finished it yet, but what art is really ever finished?
