Recently I've returned to doing pencil drawings again. Here are two of my latest.
Once upon a time I was gainfully employed as a proofreader in a prestigious law firm. How I ever got that job is beyond me, but that's a story for another time. Anyway, we could sometimes go for hours waiting for the lawyers to send in something for us to read. So to pass the time I would set up compositions on my desk with cookies, fruit and soda cans from the well-stocked pantry. And then I'd draw them with colored pencils on copy paper. Looking back, it may have been the best job I ever had. Recently I've returned to doing pencil drawings again. Here are two of my latest. Stay tuned, there's more to come ...

I'm a representational painter enchanted by the unique qualities of watercolor. Sometimes oils, gouache, colored pencils and other media call to me too. I started this blog to share my work and ideas about making art. Sometimes I toss other things into the mix. Such as painters I love, and art books and exhibits that inspire me. Your comments are welcome. I'd love to hear from you! Recent PostsCategories
