This is a gouache painting on wood. It is in the style of the batik florals I painted when I was a textile designer in NYC in the seventies.

This is a universe full of wonder and flowers.

This alien decided to avoid humans on its trip to earth.

Strange Creature has a Flower for you. Do you take it?

Birds perch on their octopus friend’s limbs.

This cool frog monster is a master inventor. Here he is riding through town on his homemade motorcycle.

I was testing a Rotring Rapid Pro 2mm and this came out. Inked with a burgundy Custom 743 EF, an underrated workhorse of a pen.

Working on whales and I decided to color one. I'll add color to the others this evening.

I'm not sure how this happened, And neither is this peep: A beach vacation for his wife That he bought on the cheap. He wanted to surprise her, So this is what he got. Turns out his wife prefers a beach With water over not.

Digital is great -- for composition and color. But for line art? I don't think I can ever give up the fountain pen. This was drawn with a Sailor King of Pen (M) and Sailor 1911L (EF) fountain pens using Pilot Black ink. Yes, sacrilege. Pilot ink in a Sailor. But I have some Kiwa Guro arriving soon!

Just about there with this one. Not sure if it works as I wanted it to!

I don't always draw skulls and beer, sometimes I draw aliens too!

Day 2 of #inktober2017 - Divided. My lemon guy tentatively volunteered for this word. Way to represent little feller. ;)

Sticker collage no. 3! This time with Washi tape :-)

A simple ink sketch of a bird at rest. Sometimes the quiet moments—watching, pausing, waiting—are the deepest teachers. This drawing is part of my exploration of what I call the Quiet Practices—small ways of living from the inside out. If you’d like to see more of my reflections, I share them here: https://forming20.com/

Two wicker chairs in the sun. One for the waiting, one for the hoped-for. The table between them holds its silence, its place set for bread or talk. I draw what is here— lines quick and unerasable— and what is not here, her presence, waits with me in the white of the page.
