15 of 100, Meeting the newest baby
“Don’t wake it”, says one to the other. They crowd around to see the newest house member. Whispering and carefully creeping into the house, not daring to attract attention. The cluster outside is whispering as they wait for their turn to get a glimpse. Tiny fur baby sleep unaware of the silent admiration swirling in […]

13 of 100, A group of green figures writhing about.
Some time you have the spirit and don’t know how to let it out. Juke and jive and sometimes slide, go big and show your expression is real. Flail and bounce about, some folks even let out a shout. If you don’t know that’s ok, practice practice it gets easier each day.

12 of 100, Duel doodle, Gio vs Alex.
How many times have you taken something apart for the shear joy of discovery. That was me, add in a sense of dread, on this day. It started after school, walking home and head bopping. The music in my headphones warped, it was the tape innocently wrapped itself into the pulleys. My shock and lack […]

9 of 100, Top Rock
Top rock is a preamble to a breakdancing set. The song break is going to hit. You get a rush and it’s your top rock that warns the crowd as you skillfully open up a hole. The elation you feel, body tightening and your senses narrowing as you set to your task. First the top […]

How to make the sandwich pictured below. The best sandwich starts with 10 slices of toasted whole wheat bread. Lay them out like a game of solitaire. Each slice will need a dollop of mayonnaise, a pinch of Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Now add two crispy bacon strips to each slice. Depending […]

As we drive through the woods the wind in my hair, I’m trying to fill my undersized nostrils with the smells that thrills Puck. Then Puck is in a reveal. He looks over at me, I can see a little pity in his eyes.

It starts was a stumble, then I see the ground coming towards my face, I know this is going to hurt. That is what it feels like when drawings are going bad.

Five Robots and what I was thinking while I drew them, enjoy! The Isometric view is my favorite and being that this sketchbook is a graphing note book I will be exploiting that for more robots.

More figure drawing. I skipped into the figure drawing event today, like a kid going to get ice cream. The model was super and the lighting was challenging (in a good way). The short 3 and 5 minute poses came first, then a cookie break and then back to drawing with some longer poses. This […]

Deer In The House, next to cardboard city.
Doodling while eating my noodling. More from the sketchbook, I have had little time to work on paintings but that is because my studio is in a state of neglect becoming the dumping ground for lots of great ideas that need to be worked on.

Doodling while eating my noodling.
Internal combustion, eat berries, and creating pink methane. Then you fall in love buy a sofa. When your away your dog is sleeping in your spot. The reindeer have EPA restrictions, and green camouflage. Deer are color blind that’s why they have stylist. A good stylist get kisses. Love is like a reindeer kiss.
