drawings

I did a series of these line drawings on handmade paper from an old book and then put shellac over them.

This image was created to be a limited print to go along with my new book, 10 Years of Daily Drawings.

See you there~ day 1 (my inktober drawings this year will have paint too :))

I had a wonderful time creating this commision for a Kansas City Personalities wall mural installed in a downtown KC apartment building. The wall measures roughly 12’ x 20’. These were all hand drawn graphite and charcoal drawings that I scanned into my mac and delivered digitally. The file was then enlarged and applied to the wall surface.

The sketchbook doodle that turned into something special. To this day, it’s still one of my favourite drawings. Pencil, Charcoal Pencil, Pastel Pencils on 9” x 12” Strathmore Archival Sketchbook Paper.

My little fun series of everyday food during quarantine just to make it more cosmic ;) This one sketch a day approach helps with my long break in drawings! :) Sketchbook, coffee and ink.

Original drawings for sale, I'll be listing them later today in my Bigcartel shop :)

Currently exploring image making with fountain pens: immediate mark making, no pencil, no eraser. I'm enjoying the discovery process and embracing the stray mark made with semi-blind contour and continuous line drawings.

A couple of winter tree drawings.

Allover fish pattern using some old and new ocean themed drawings.

Adobe just released a new drawing and painting app Fresco for the iPad. Here are few experimental images. I have to say I am impressed with the natural media brushes and the interface.

Little drawings with the theme of transportation.

I feel like my drawings got a lot more dimensional and interesting once I was able to achieve variable line width. I love loading different colors into the pen and going HAM on paper that totally can't handle it. My sketchbooks crackle when I turn the pages. They buckle and heave and are exhausted from their tribulations.

Always enjoy getting back to drawing the figure from life.

What do you do with a notebook planner that you never used and is about to expire? Doodle in its calendar squares of course.
