the people you see..

And they came from miles around...

There is nothing quite like a mid-west county fair.The real American, in his habitat.
I consider myself some what well traveled and this is what I think visitors from other countries visiting the U.S are missing....

Not good, nor bad, but very interesting

Hear are some fun caricatures from a fair I did this last week hadn't drawn in awhile before this, so not super exaggerated, but I liked them, and loved playing with the airbrush again.

Enjoy!

there that is..

all dolled up

Been sketching a lot just not posting much...gotta fix that.

Ramdom drawings from the week.

Ship yard painting.

To those who don't know, I am currently working on a cruise ship in the Bermuda triangle.We hit three ports along the four day cruise, and the nice part about my position is my freedom to get off the ship and explore the ports.
this was in Nassau, BA. As long as you get really far away from the cruise port, you can find some real, genuine character of the culture. My favorite photo-op is an old ship yard, slowly falling into the crystal clear Bohemian waters. Although I would have liked to capture a bit more of the natural bio-degrading port, this is the angle I went for, and I like what came out.
I will try to do some more in the near future.
6x8" and of course on the worst paper ever

The other is just a little sketch inspired by Hogwarts.

what a lovely morning in the mountains

Life stories.
collecting adventure is like collecting baseball cards for me.
I love the story telling side of humanity, the ability to take a life changing experience, and put it together in words and mental pictures so that others can experience it nearly as close, and sometimes better than, the original.

Anyway, this is the climactic end to a wild night I spent surviving the night in Big Sur, CA

putting stories to to visuals is a fun challenge, and allows you to exaggerate the feeling in the moment.
Thanks Mr. Anderson, for the challenge, your story next.

Sorry about the picture quality, no scanner...
