Ink Drawing

I've been very lazy lately, and so in lieu of a new piece of artwork, I'm posting something I did a while back. Hopefully I'll put something newer up in the next few days.

Jack of All Trades, Master of None

So, I do some block printing, too. Lino-cut for now, but I am going to try my hand at wood-block printing this summer.

Of the pieces you see below, I've included the cut linoleum board for three of them to compare the finished art to the block itself. The best of my work occurs when I execute the cut with the fewest possible strokes.

Right now I'm in the middle of a couple of urban landscapes. One is new, the other is an attempt from a couple of summers ago that I think may be a salvagable failure.

Ahhh.... more color

I just finished this today. I'm trying to to get reacquainted with watercolor, so I decided to do a lighthearted scene. Painting really is like language-learning. If you don't do it every day, you loose your skills.

More from Spring Studio

Maria and I went to Spring Studio again a couple of weeks ago. I've been holding off putting these up because I wanted to break up the black-and-white work with some color.
