Daily Creativity: Jupiter

Jupiter-smJupiter is so far my favorite painting I have done in my solar system series. I used hot pressed paper this time, normally I paint on cold pressed paper, but I saw this today when I was at the art store and thought it might work well for the planets. The difference is with hot pressed paper the finish is smooth and very soft to the touch, cold pressed has more texture and absorbs the paint more. Watercolor on paper. 3/23/2015

Daily Creativity: Doodles from old sketches

Doodle-sheepTonight I give you a doodle! I was on a long podcast recording and while I was recording I found myself doodling on a discarded paper from my sketchbook. Often I will start sketches, and not like where they are going, and if it’s being done in ink, I will start fresh. So I was doodling and really liked where this was going so I thought I’d share with all of you. Hope you like it. Ink and Pencil on Paper. 3/21/2015

Daily Creativity: Rory as Iron Man, Iron Dragon!

Rory-IronMan-IronDragon-smIron Dragon, the mash up of Rory and Iron Man is the third in my series of paintings of Rory as the Avengers. For Iron Man I felt it needed the thick black outline, and I think it made the composition pop more. This is my favorite of the series so far. Ink and Watercolor on paper. 3/20/2015

Daily Creativity: There are two types of people

there are two types of people So this was inspired by a suggestion from my sister. When I was a kid my family was very involved in the local soccer club, all of us played, whether we wanted to or not. Everyone is fond of talking about how I would get distracted and was often found picking dandelions in the field more often than chasing the ball. If you know me, that shouldn’t surprise you.
