Lady Sketch

This is a sketch made after the style of Frank Franzetta.  Frank was one of the best illustrators of all things fantasy and the comics of his day.  This is a copy of one of this heroine's faces.   I liked the style of it.

I am back - Flight Sketch

I am back from work travel.  I was gone for two weeks and was sick a bit also.  I did this sketch while on my flight.  It is real simple but I need to be back on the doing art wagon.

Catch and Release

This is a sketch I have done in watercolor pencils.  It is a catch and release of a nice big Trout.  You color in your basic tones with the pencil and then use a watercolor brush to blend it in and then you can add more colors to make it better and add depth.

Cardinal Card

I did this Cardinal as a Get Well card for a co-worker's wife.  She is from Indiana and Cardinals are the state bird, so I did this male bird in clored pencils.
