Tabatha

Tabatha is a new model for me. This charcoal was from our first session together. I think she will be a very good model and we will get some good work done. I'm looking forward to the next sessions.

Attitude

I finally am getting back to drawing from live models. This is a 20 minute Charcoal drawing on 24"x18" paper. Model: Sheri 12-5-11

Marko

Marko, is my youngest Grandson. Quite a character, with a ton of personality. He is a great model... he may even know this at the age of 2 years. this sketch was done from a phot at the park over lunch. The front seat of my car seems to be the best studio I have right now.

SELF PORTRAIT

I am not usually enamoured by phot's or drawings of myself. this was a quick drawing in an attempt to get into an art show, requiring some sort of self portrait. I like the more serious expression, probably never draw my smiley face...to corny for me. the details are just ok for my taste, shadows hit and miss, but with all that said ienjoyed drawing it in the end.

RACHEL AT 9 MONTHS

Another uick pose of Rachel. This was done on a light vellum paper with willow charcoal. easy to draw quick and eliminate mistakes just as fast!

Kari

I haven't been able to get to drawing sessions lately. Finally went again last night. Good model with great poses.

Vietnamese Girl

I have been invited to share my art work at the Bridging Hope Gallery 4309 Tennyson St., Denver. Please take an opportunity to visit this Gallery and Sen Nguyen the director.  Be sure to check out Bridging Hope Web Site above for the work they do in Supporting Women and children of Vietnam. http://www.bridging-hope.org/

Preliminary sketch for painting of my grandson

PASTEL WOMAN

Not a very creative name. I am trying to take some of the quick figure sketches I've done and create colorful pastels out of them. This was from a 3 minute pose. So I want to see how lighting, form, and if I can capture a mood in 3 minutes or less!. Gives me something to shoot for.

Reflections of a Mother and Daughter

The source for this is from aLiberian Refugee camp in Ghana, image from a friend of mine "Lucy" who volunteered at this camp. hard to say what these to ladies are looking at. Definitely focussed on the same issue the same way. while i have no price on this and do not have the exact information at this point, i promised some proceeds for sales of this work to go back to Lucy for support of these women she worked with.
