ADNW - October Challenge



A Day Not Wasted painting challenge for October was a picture of this lad in Dublin. I used my Lamy pen for the outline then tried out my Progresso colored pencils. I'm happy with everything but the face. I made the young man a few years older. sigh

Laundry Day



It always feel good to get a big chore done for the week. I did this quick sketch while the laundry was in the wash. The guy was so into the book he was reading, he didn't even notice me.

Travels - Jerome, AZ

Something about this water color has missed it's mark for me and I'm not sure why. I even added some color pencil in some areas. Maybe that's it, it's too much or too dark. This is when a good critique would come in handy for me.

Jerome is an old mining town that is full of history. Today it's a tourist and art destination with many B&B's and over 30 galleries and studios.  This abandoned building is the of the first you see as you enter Jerome.
