A quick sketch of Senta Berger. It isn’t a very good likeness but she was so beautiful that even a bad picture of her comes out just fine.

Don’t just look at titles and labels. Read the descriptions as well.

Four billion dollars worth should get us started.

It’s summer so I decided to post a vacation drawing. One of those relaxing vacations – just sit around and don’t do much. Lots of lollygaggin’. With sketchpad on my lap I took the time to sketch the walkway over the dunes to the beach. This is on Galveston Island, Texas.

Yet another college class assignment; exploring etching/printing. I’ll let you look at it first before I tell you what it is.

I chose to use the Greek letters of the fraternity I was in. Sigma Lambda Chi. Don’t look it up. You’ve never heard of it. It was a local fraternity and I’m told it no longer exists. But we’re having our annual reunion so I dug this up.

Some people asked to see the color version of the Trinity Sunday image.

Computer illustration

A few years ago my pastor asked me to illustrate something for Trinity Sunday. The Father is represented by the Old Testament commandments, The Son is represented by the cross and the Spirit by a dove. I also did a color version just for the heck of it but it wasn’t used.

Yet another grandkid birthday and of course another drawing request:
Her: “Draw a princess knight with long braided hair coming out of her helmet. Draw her on a horse, fighting a dragon.”
Me: “OK”
Her: “Can you draw backgrounds?”
Me: “I think so.”
Her: “Put a volcano in the background.”
