This sketch is from a few years ago, but i've added to it here and there over time. I've been thinking about making this a painting. Its called "The Smoker".

Oh, I think you should paint it.  His hole is fantastic!  Well done.

As promised. Here are 2 paintings I have done recently. I'm learning to enjoy oils. Strangely, I find it very relaxing.

Nice work. I like the top one better. How is it strange to think its relaxing? I think its relaxing myself. I think the fumes from the paint and turpatine might have something to do with it too. Its a satisfying feeling when something comes out like you wanted it to.

Thanks. The second one is more "fun" for the kids playroom. Didn't come out quite like I hoped but they like it.

Good point on the smells. That and copious amounts of vodka and MMJ playing the background doesn't hurt either. Strange for me as I don't relax. My previous post (the kitchen) was my recent vacation. Not the sitting on the beach soaking up the rays type.

Strange how things can jog your memory. This one was dug up recently. We made them during class back in elementary school, i was probably in second or third grade. I vaguely remember it like a foggy dream.

Been going through lots of old stuff and found a "drawing" from 1st grade. Seemed fitting for this first nice day in awhile. Hope you are all well.  :)

Just a few new ones --
Sold a bunch that I never got to scan in, which is a bummer. they went for 20 bucks, though. I donated them to a fundraiser and ended up making a hundred bucks for them.





more to come, I guess, sometime.

I absolute adore your work!  I'd love to purchase one in the future.

gee, thanks! :)
I've been really focusing on my drawings, recently, and it's sort of led to my distraction from everything else.
I'm thinking about printing t shirts.
It'll be fun, I think, if I ever get the motivation to do it!

[sweatboard]

I've got to have a t-shirt.  The new ones are kickass by the way.
