Hungry Goat_pg5

After the flurry of sketching in November and December, January saw a sharp decline. Need to get back in the sketching saddle. Hmmmm, sketching saddle, that might be something to sketch, hee hee!

Anywho, this is a detail of the line, from a page, for an e-reader (in the House that Jack built, no, sorry,) that I’m working on.

Hope you’re having a lovely 2013 so far!

SkADaMo Day 20

November 20, 2012

As I sat down to sketch, I realized I was dragging a bit lately, and that’s when this here dragon popped into my head.

Get it? Dragging, dragon. Sigh.

Anyway, being tired and cranky paid off tonight.

Wow, day 20 of SkADaMo and PiBoIdMo. We’re getting there. So, hey, take a look at what the other SkADaMoers are up to by clicking their links at the end of this post.

He’s pretty rough, but thought since it’s been a while,  I’d throw out a kookaburra, just because.

Being wet made Harriet absolutely cranky and very very mad, which caused all the other chickens in the coop to walk on eggshells.

Sheesh! I just realized it’s been a while since I posted anything. What is going on with me anyway?

Well, here is a wee piggy I posted on Dueling Banjo Pigs a while ago. You really must visit that site. It’s piggy-licious and full of hammy goodness!

happy father’s day

June 20, 2010

For the past 8 years Father’s Day for me starts out with a reawakening of an otherwise, slowly, dulling grief.

At 14, I discovered in myself, a natural artistic ability when he bestowed upon me some old oil paints, a palette and some “how-to” books, he had dabbled with years before.

My dad had a penchant for tall tales, or at least they seemed tall. My sisters and I would roll our eyes as he told us of his past exploits, like how he had pitched for the Pittsburg Pirates. After snickering in our sleeves for Read the rest of this entry »
