Pencils for a painting from 2015 – ‘Music in the Forest’

by on Aug.28, 2023, under Cartooning, Illusration


Penciled this on 21″ by 16″ Arches watercolor board.
I’ll soon post watercolor I applied later.
Since this painting, Arches watercolor board has ceased to exist. Today, I use the lesser quality Crescent board that is available.

‘Birding with Bears’. My watercolor painting from 2015…..

by on Aug.03, 2023, under Illusration

‘Birding with Bears along the Oklawaha River’.

I had a special sale in 2015 to be able to get watercolor paintings from me for very low prices.
This is one of those.

It’s a 11″ x 14″ watercolor painting on watercolor board.
Today, I can’t remember who ordered the painting.

You can order a watercolor painting by me by sending me a message through this site or calling: (407) 880-1128.
My prices are based upon subject and time.

My artwork from 13 years ago…..

by on Jul.28, 2023, under Cartooning, Illusration

A slew of projects I penciled and inked, this day, back in 2010.
Today, I can’t remember what most of these were for. A couple were for my Swampy’s Florida site.
I can tell each is drawn on 11″x 14″ Bristol cardstock. The paper used to be easy to acquire back then, Today, it’s very, very difficult for a singular artist to get reams of paper like that as I once did.

‘Donkey in the Midst of Death.’ – My Swampy’s drawing from Tuesday.

by on Jul.26, 2023, under Illusration

Made up as I drew on my Cartoons by Rob Smith, Jr. Facebook page, July 25th, 2023.

I pulled two books,
‘Death in the Midst’ by Lawrence Block and
the Little Golden Book, ‘Farm Friends’. I opened that to a page with a donkey.
Per chance, during the chat, Cheryl Cornelius noted ‘Donkey’.
I made up the rest as I drew.

Felt-tip pen on sketch paper from Miller Pad and Paper.

You can tune into the live program, most weekdays, 7 to 8-1sh pm:
