After 44 days I fell off the drawing/posting horse. I’m back on again. I’m going to play a little catch up in my posting and just post 2 a day  for the next week or so until I have all my drawings on the blog-o.
I have some awesome sweetness to share with you in a [...]

The drawing people trials begin again. You know, I never tried to draw anyone until my sophmore year in high school… in comparison I’ve been drawing plants since I was a little kiddo and animals since I was 8 or so. I have a few years of catch up work on portraits, people, and face [...]

I took yesterday off at the office to work in my studio. I’m working on a piece for the Beyond Audubon juried show in Chicago. Let’s see if I can get it done and images sent in by the 10th. I just learned about it last weekend.  Go go go!
