    Quick

    Did a revision to “Day is Done”. I guess what I thought……minimalist, less is more, and all that…. Woke up in the morning, had some coffee, and realized I had missed the mark. Fortunately, I didn’t make a big enough boo-boo to ruin the drawing…. So, as things are going, I may take a look…

    Day is Done

    It seems to be a new thing with me. I get tired, brain fried, and that seems to be the time I decide to write a blog post. Take from that what you will. This time I am reasonably well rested. The subject was trees,wasn’t it? Well,this is the newest one. It’s the complete version…

  • More Trees, Please!

    More Trees, Please!

    Looking back on the final version of “Reserved”, I am disappointed. I had such high hopes for it. It may end up in my New Years “worst “. Live and,with any luck at all, learn But! I did a drawing today, which might work large. It’s bold enough with a good solid design. This is…

  • I like trees

    I like trees

    Just as I like cats. When I was in high school, another girl my age, grumbled,”Why do you do so many trees?”. I thought it was a silly question, so I just told her “I like trees “. In remembrance of that girl, I have named this drawing, “I like trees”. Honestly, I always wonder…

    But something I have copyright on is my own work. So, here are some drawings of the sun shining through.

    “I was dreaming when I wrote this…….”

    I have this recurring dream. I go into a gallery and Lo and Behold! My artwork is on display. The only catch is. the artwork is in my old style, which I abandoned long time ago.

  • I’m Tired

    I’m Tired

    Am I tired? You betcha. Synapses barely firing. I don’t know why. The weather maybe. Don’t know, but I’m tired. Everybody goes through this I know. Anyway, while I’m tired, I have to make a monumental, earth shattering decision. Okay, not exactly earth shattering, but doesn’t any decision feel that way when you’re tired? I…

  • Yay for me!

    Yay for me!

    Cycles This is so exciting to me. A real vote of confidence, and a real shot in the arm. Of course, since now I am working small, I thought I’d show the small drawing that this is derived from. I’m proud of them both. Just to let you know, I was planning to use this…

    Do it Again, then

    One of the pluses of working small, is that it isn’t an overwhelming task to redo a drawing. The drawing of the yellow basket ball really didn’t turn out the way I’d hoped. I went too far, it became muddy. The leaves were too cartoony. So, I redid it, and I’m much more pleased. A…
