"Suspended" Colored Pencil on Black Illustration Board 2006 - 14 x 19 available for purchase The vertical reflections of the background trees in the calm water contrasted with the horizontally moving waves of the wind disturbed water was quite intriguing for me. The vertical shafts of green reflect the grassy slopes beyond and the horizontal waves reflect the pale blue sky and the pink clouds of evening. And the ducks all seem to be suspended in bliss. |
 |
"At the End of the Day" Colored Pencil on Grey Illustration Board 2006 - 14 x 19 available for purchase I wanted to render a believable image of the bright sparkling water in the early evening. With the sun to the upper right, the brightness of the watery field diminishes toward the lower left. The trees and the grassy foreground frame the piece and the alert mother and her babies defines the end of the day. |
 |
"Self Portrait III" Colored Pencil on Black Illustration Board 2006 - 19 x 14 available for purchase I took this picture of myself next to the window and a hanging plant. The blue hat just pops next to the warm green of the plant. My face, my neck, and my shoulder serve as a transition into the black background.

"Sublimation" Colored Pencil 2006 - 14 x 19 available for purchase I had been experimenting with a long, narrow block of sheets, hanging from above, and where each sheet is cut on the bottom so as to create a cylindrical ceiling. Differently coloring each side of every sheet suggested some type of chromic emanation directed upward in an ordered fashion. This suggested order emanating from chaos; hence, the chaotic, leaping, and swirling color field below where the jagged edges of the shapes echo the cut sheets above. To breach the black gap between them requires sublimation. |
 |
"So Forth in Sunlight" Colored Pencil on Black Illustration Board 2007 - 13 x 18 available for purchase The only thing I can say about this piece is that it was an absolute joy to execute. So Forth was a really cool cat. The picture says everything else. |
