Old country

Full on artist's block has me digging through old sketchbooks for inspiration. This one was from a decade ago at least.

Adolescent

Depression

Satyr

Impressions of Balzac by Rodin

Gold Leaf Guilding

fake gold leaf added to this drawing. Add some value with metal. I totally effed it up though when I sprayed a varnish on it and dulled the metal. Would this happen with real gold? Was it the temperature? The varnish? who knows. I'm going to hit it with the mineral spirits to try to bring back the luster. Might be a lost cause.

After that third goat, he's looking a little more cautious.

Stages in an illustration I am donating to The Washington Center for the Performing Arts for their fall fundraiser auction "26 feet of art". 26 pieces by 26 artists each 12"x12".

I was trying to create an altocumulus mackerel sky with some wet on wet technique. I think it turned out pretty good even in grays.

I paint through the desert a horse with no name.

2 stages of a horse. Trying to come up with an idea for an auction donation that should support the arts and get good press. I don't think this one is it, but I like the little cloud.
