OK, let’s do something a little different. This is what you might call “accidental art.” Some of you won’t call it art at all. But I like it. Older folks will remember the mimeograph machine. You wrapped a stencil around a big drum, turned the drum, fed paper in one side, ink would be forced […]
Archives: 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 […]
Archives: Another oldie, an assignment in a college art class; my one and only attempt at a linoleum print. Linoleum on newsprint paper, 7 1/2″ X 11″
This is definitely NOT my art but I make an exception to post it because it has special meaning. Not only is it a treasured gift from a great friend but it includes all my grandkids and was done in time for my wife to enjoy it. Needlepoint, 20″ X 24″
This is REALLY old! I came across it recently and decided I’d share. On a whim I decided I’d take a cake decorating class. It was a lot of fun. I had a great time decorating special cakes for my kids. This is one of those cakes I did for my daughter. I designed it […]
The good folks at the Lake Highlands Advocate honored me with a nice feature article in their magazine. Yep, that’s my “studio.” Drawings and paintings on the wall; the rug my grandmother made for me in the 1960s. The photographer, Danny Fulgencio, set up a very good photo, but, no, I would never actually draw […]
Addendum to the last post: three versions of the same boutonniere. The top is a photograph of the real boutonniere. It is sitting in an unseen vase on a black granite countertop but all you can see is the flower. In the middle is a color pencil drawing done on black mat board. Although yellows, […]
This post is a dramatic withdrawal from my usual artwork and cartoons. July 7 is my wife’s birthday. She died very suddenly and unexpectedly just over three years ago. As a way to express my grief I wrote a song. I am not a songwriter or singer but this is the only way I could […]
After I posted a handful of T-Shirts a few weeks back I had a couple of people mention certain shirts that were not included. First, most of the designs I’ve done are long gone. Secondly, these were the only ones I could find when rummaging around in my closets. But I decided to dig a […]
Over the years different groups have asked me to design t-shirts for them. I don’t have a lot of the designs but I did manage to dig a few old shirts out of the closet.
