    W.I.P. it Good!

    While I was in the aforementioned quandary, I decided it would be best to do something, anything at wall, even a failure than nothing. So, I decided to do the red on green, entitled, for the time being “First Fall Tree” I did this: I took one more picture et voila! So, Spooky Tree! If…

  • Spinning….!

    Spinning….!

    Here’s a thought. I’m getting behind on my artwork, due to other stuff going on. Still, I felt the need to do something. So, I had this great idea! Okay, maybe not a great idea, but at least an idea. Why not post the drawings of mine that I like. I like, but, for some…

    Well, That Went Over Like a Lead Balloon

    As you may recall, I was going to start another blog on my new gallery site, and leave this one in the dust. It just wasn’t a great design for a blog, I couldn’t add pictures, and I’ve got all of you over here already enjoying what I write. So, for my gallery site, go…

  • Double Talk

    Double Talk

    I’ve been missing for a while, I realize. And here it is September Just for that, here’s a September drawing. However I have been busy with non art projects. I’ve been putting up a new website, which also features…a blog! So far, it’s only ipsum lorem stuff. Also, moving. Have quit my day job. One…

  • I Should Explain….

    I Should Explain….

    Here’s the latest: “Fireflies in July If that looks familiar to you, and maybe it doesn’t, I’ll explain anyway. It may remind you of this: That’s because I’m drawing something very familiar to me, which is the porches in this condo complex….so, you see, there’s a good reason for this repetition. Not a particularly interesting…

  • I’m Speechless!

    I’m Speechless!

    No, not really, I just thought it would be a good title. This is my latest, and if you look closely, you’ll see a bird and a couple of squirrels. One thing I discovered is that just drawing leaves turns out to be boring to both the artist and the viewer. I’m pretty happy with…

  • Conventional Wisdom

    Conventional Wisdom

    Sorry, I meant to post on Tuesday, as a routine day. This Tuesday, I was unable to get to it. But here it is Wednesday, better late than never! Speaking of conventional wisdom, for artists at least. The question so many artists ask is, what sells the best? Everyone, (you know that everyone) says to…

  • Nothing Doing

    Nothing Doing

    According to Blog writing wisdom, you should wait until you have something interesting to write before you post. Other Blog writing wisdom says you should write on a regular basis, so you don’t lose your audience. Preferably once a week, at your busiest time. Which works out to be early Tuesday evening. So, here I…

  • Shakin’ It Up

    Shakin’ It Up

    Thought I’d try something different for a change. I know, I know, I often say I’m going to change my artwork, do one different picture, then back to the same old stuff. So, I’m just going to, as I wrote, try. So, I finally did do a version of the small airplane that I like.…
