A Walk in the Park

FRACTURED SOLE

We're torn down then get up...hopefully. Never completely intact the way we think we should or would like to be. always afraid to bear our soles, hearts and mind. Figures lend themselves to a closer and less pretentious look at ourselves as opposed to an unclothed look.

Kitty Tracks

A new model, very composed good pose. this is just a quick drawing that will make a nice painting.
i thought about calling it "kitty can you scratch right there?...yah that's it!"

Culture of Liege

These muslim men were waiting in the Market, Centrum of Liege Belgium. The culture there is highly diverse. It is the main town where my son is playing soccer and going to school. I'll be back there this weekend to do more work and visit my son and go to the Penalty (sports bar) to watch some football.
