Have You Heard Of Watercolour Pencils?




I got these watercolor pencils for graduation, just getting around to using them. So far, I like them. Another good turn of events, I've moved near a really cool park ~ full of trees to practice on.

For Beth: A Work In Progress


Take some notes, call or email me with your thoughts. For me; the trees in front can have fruit on them, The yellow sky is different. That may be a good or a bad thing. The redwood in the back stays pretty much like it is in the draft.

The Fix Coffeehouse 4.15.11





Workings on these projects has given me a large portfolio. Out of all of the pieces, this one has become one of my favorites. The concept of Brian’s Great Grandfather is tying together well. I see a great Album cover, T-shirts, etc. in the future.

Two designs. One in the Filmore tradition; fill up all the space and don't give your eye's a moments rest. The second a more traditional county fair type.This style focuses on the picture more than the type. Nice too. Both work for me. Both have been printed up and are being used. You can take your pick.

"Greed" ~ Panel No.3









Done! ...so far. I had one of my kids talking to me while I worked on this. "He who must not to be named," played the new Pokemon and put his two cents worth in. I enjoyed that more than working on the piece itself. "Life is about the journey, and not the destination." Someone cooler than me already said that, but it's true.

I need to print these up, and mount them, and turn them in. The sooner I do that, the soon I can start on the Brian Bateman CD cover. He's in Disneyland tonight. I almost said "I wish I were too," but that would be a lie.

Me and "He who must not to be named," did alright right here.

"Pride" ~ Panel No. 2 and Boise Weekly



Pride ~ When asked "Which came first: the chicken or the egg?" This little guy said "ME"!
In his mind, he is the creator of all he sees.
In his mind he is "...all that and a bag of chips."

"A Boy is A Stick is A Dog"









...Or in my case "a gallery piece, is a newspaper cover, is a class assignment" It's all the same. The Gallery thing didn't work, but the pieces I'll turning in anyway as part of maybe getting one of these thing on the cover of the Boise Weekly.

So anyway, here they come. They take forever to paint, but they're so much fun!

Tonight "Lust" ~one as part of the series, and ~one designed for the Boise Weekly assignment.

We'll talk more later. I've been at this all day, and I need to get to bed.
