another president

we just had an election, and Lincoln is coming up on 200 years old, so why not post another president? not my favorite, but an interesting face to draw...

i'm not political, i just like drawing.

Cold and snowing...

Busy cleaning up after being gone for two weeks. Working in clay trying to finish everything for Jan show... Across the room sits a moleskine sketchbook, will I attempt to pick it up? If I do, will I draw?

back from the sun

I'm back from my latest trip. For some reason I couldn't find the motivation/inspiration to draw. I plan on breaking out the pens real soon. The pictures of the coast and zoo should get me going... maybe.

Another tile piece, with a detail shot. Not sure if I like this one yet. Some of the tiles came out darker then I had planned... oh well, back to clay. Tomorrow I head out to San Diego. I'll check in and say hi...

Happy Thanksgiving...

hope your day was at least good. friends and family are always welcome... i guess. I fired a load today, a couple sculptures. i have my fingers crossed. i need to finish a couple more small pieces prior to leaving for san diego, sunday.

part of a clay sculpture in the drying process. right now it is just shy of 17" i'm making a base for it out of wood. there are a few other sculptures in the kiln right now (bisque). i plan on making one more prior to departing sunday for san diego. with any luck i will find the energy to draw soon...

out the door...

Sold these pieces today at an artist gathering. Set-up at some one's house, the theme was a prior to Christmas sale. I got notified prior to me going to North Carolina. I agreed, showed up yesterday and today, made a little cash, and talked to some interesting folks... Now to finish the work for this up coming show.

the pens lay idle...

Funky stuff laying around the the back yard. These were from an earlier phase of mine. The bees love 'em, not sure if anyone else would. I'm almost done with all the pieces for my next show. I'll be drawing again soon... I hope.

earlier sketch

a sketch from late last year, this year has flown by. i need to break out my pens and get busier with clay... time will tell.

no new drawings...

i'm back... i didn't get a chance to draw while i was in north carolina... so here's a picture i took before i left...

one of the dumping grounds behind my house for some sculptures that didn't work out...
