Back to some still life work. I like this old jar and the contrast of the objects and their textures.

There's been some construction around lately. This obviously is a very straight forward rendition. I'll have to try a more stylized approach to this before too long.

Another drawing from our outdoor excursion.

We were outdoors drawing and painting yesterday.  It's always great to work from nature, even with all the heat and bugs.

Ok, I'm playing a little today.  It's a visual comment on size relationships.

My friend Peter and his son sharing some time.

Found these in a friends yard.

You ever notice serious musicians have musical instruments all over the place.  Here's more of Randy's guitars.

Second pass with a different treatment.

An ornamental wooden bird.  I think I'll experiment with this one for a few days.

My computer wiz friend, Carey with an antique truck replica. It's cast iron, fairly heavy and thick. They don't make them like that much these days. He got it at a farmers roadside sale.

Decided to try some colored pencils. I had to go back to a simple setup for it.

A nice asian lamp/fountain in a corner of a friends back yard.

Another still life of found objects.

No, I'm not a musician.  These are from some of my friend Randy Bernsen's guitars.  He's played them for audiences all over the world.

After a workout

A friends' Baby Grand.  I love the way the curves shape the music.

Close up on an always overlooked object.

Second pass at this one. 

#artwork #fineART #drawing #pencil #style #stillLife #creative #artist #clip #woodBLOCK

I couldn't resist the juxtaposition of the shapes. The intricate shape of the clip against the very simple shape of the block.

This one is for my daughter.  Some fledgling birds in the yard lately, got some pics of them.

The new setup continues

Second week starts with a little different setup.

I did say fun was part of this, didn't I?  Inspired by some of the more creative work of the early 20th century.
