Daffodil 30


Paul Cezanne preferred painting fruit to flowers. He said, "I decided against flowers; they wither on the instant. Fruit are more loyal."

He taught his parrot to say, "Cezanne is a great painter!"

Squirrel or a Boy? (30 second sketch)


NYC is looking for a new mascot for the Parks Dept. Submit your mascot idea here.

This one looks like a DJ. What should I name him? Or her?

UPDATE: This is Belka Nuez. He is Russian-Spanish-American and his name means Squirrel Nut - first name is Russian, last name is Spanish.

New Project


11"x15" As yet untitled. Part of a series.

Mitten for the Cold 30

Crow Line 30

I love the big drawings and I certainly think they help improve my drawing with daily practice, but when I spend so much time on one topic, I think it can cramp linear flow. So, in addition to the big drawings that take a ton of cross hatching and line strengthening, I am going to shoot for a daily 30 second drawing. The outline has to be done in 30 seconds and then I can take a few minutes for line correction.
