Half of my life I’ve slowly become a desert rat; drawing and painting buttes, mountains, desertscapes and cowboys. I’ve found my ‘island in the sun’, amongst the coyotes, the horned lizards, cactus and sage.
My daughter in-law asked if I would make a painting of a photo she treasured. She said that she and my son were engaged on this beach.
I painted this in acrylics. This is a photo of the painting, but unfortunately the photo has been cropped.
Working on a quick little sketch with Faber Castell Graphite 9000 on a 9×11 Strathmore Bristol Vellum paper. Loving the texture of the paper for this drawing.
Watercolour on treated canvas!
The Daniel Smith grounds for canvas to prime for watercolour, are good but I found the paint didn’t hold well to the canvas when layering. I did only use one layer on a pre primed canvas so maybe if I used a few layers of the Daniel Smith watercolour primer I would experience different results.
My love of animals comes out in my art.
Oil on canvas

Finally turned a 30 year old color pencil drawing into a painting!
I drew this with colored pencils on suede matboard.
What do y’all guys think?
Can you see what created this pattern? Find the CN Tower.
A reflection of an evening stroll in my home town.

I’m working on a book in which I talk about monsters that I make up in my head and I need some advice on drawing them. Keep in mind I’m 13.

Watercolor Cardinals. Work in progress. Beaks are not done. Not sure what to do.
I like working with texture abstractly and finding ways to paint using textures. I try texture paste, paper, grinds, chips, etc.
Very time consuming, open to advice
