For Those of You Who Can’t Draw a Straight Line
Which is about everyone. I haven’t come up with an interesting title for this, but I think you can figure out it’s a carousel. For the great unwashed, like me, it’s a merry-go-round. I have to brag though, I did draw the straight lines without a ruler. These lines are long, so it would have…

When in Doubt…..
Draw a cat. That’s my go to when I don’t have any other ideas. The cat drawing I tried to do was going nowhere. It was going along well, until I drew the cat’s front leg. It didn’t go so well. It kind of looked like the cat had a thick tail sticking out of…

I’ve always been intrigued by works of art that are compositions of white on white. So, Ive made some attempts doing this. Mind you, with colored pencils, it’s really impossible to do completely. Maybe if I get back to working in acrylics again/ An example of this is “Blizzard: Incidentally, I have a goal to…

Darn, Did It Again
Or rather, didn’t do it. My plan has been to post on this blog every Sunday. This week I simply forgot. I had spent the morning at my new day job, and my legs and back really hurt. I was so preoccupied with icing my back, that the idea of posting was way far away.…
