Rabbit Sketch

Long day today so I scanned this sketch of this long eared rabbit.  Enjoy!

Art Marker Trees

I worked on this the last two nights.  It is not an original design, but it was a good practice piece of design and artwork.  I used Coptic art markers in black and grey.

Devil's Tower - Block-in

Tonight I worked on this oil landscape of Devil's Tower in Wyoming.  This is the view you get as you drive to the Tower from the south.  I will tweak the sky, add details to the tower, and sort out the foreground to make it better and add more convincing depth to it.  Not a bad start for an hours worth of painting.

Pumpkin King

A little fun paint, The Pumpkin King looks down and surveys him kingdom - the Patch.  I liked the goofy little thing and it is easy to do while fitting off sickness.

Small Practice Pencil Sketches

These are small pencil sketches to work out in small size and to practice compositions.  It is easier to make small mistakes and small experiments before committing to full size paintings or larger paintings.

Hemlock Tree Sketch

A grey little day in DC, I have plans to fill sketch books with pencil drawings of trees and windows.  I have filled three sketchbooks with bird sketches.  All are plan of the practice necessary to improve.  Tonight is another tree sketch after a long day and long commute in the rain.  This is work to be able to avoid a commute unless it is to someplace interesting.

Douglas Fir Tree sketch

Tonight's post is a pencil sketch of a Douglas Fir tree done in pencil, simple and easy to put the day behind me.
