My #InkTober #26 – Dinosaur Play

by on Oct.28, 2024, under What's New?


I opened the live YouTube program, October 26th, opening a Kinder egg and out popped parts to create a little dinosaur.
That brought discussion in the chat area of toys and toys from the past that I could draw a trunk full. 🙂

Unicorn girl caricature I did in 2016…..

by on Aug.30, 2023, under What's New?

Rainbows are very difficult. In this, I used color pencils to get the colors. I wanted to be sure the rainbow colors didn’t out flank the colors involving the main subject.

I drew and painted this caricature back in 2016 as a commission.
Please let me know if you would like one.
My prices are very reasonable.

Watercolor and colored pencil on 11″ x 14″ watercolor board.

‘Silver Springs at Play’ painted back in 2015…..

by on Aug.13, 2023, under What's New?

A watercolor painting I did back in 2015 for one who purchased it.

This was back when I used watercolor paper for projects than the board I use now.
I believe the size is 11″ x 14″.

What I was working on 1 year ago until…..

by on Aug.01, 2023, under What's New?

A year ago I penciled these pages for a planned Swampy’s Florida book to be called ‘Swampy’s Florida Halloween Party’.
Little did I know that 4 days later I’d break my drawing right wrist and arm. I was out of commission through September and had to focus on non-Swampy projects to pay the bills. Projects that took 10 times longer due to the lengthy healing of my wrist and arm. I really wasn’t back to drawing closer than usual until about February.

There’s been a mighty delay, but I plan to jump back into the Halloween project in a couple weeks.
Look for updates here.

In the meantime, I’m working hard to get ‘River of Life’ #2 done.
