Life Drawing

This is a watercolor I did of the two models that were at the first Dr. Sketchy, North Jersey event. This was back in January. I paint to slow for a 20 minute pose but a great time was had by all.

Perspective

From Jack and Henry's perspective the snow on Virginia Ave. was great. They have the road all to themselves

October Morning

Here is a picture of a neighbor walking her daughter to school. They just got a new puppy. As you can see he thinks he is walking them. Yes, I do live in a town in which people walk down the middle of the street and it is relatively safe. In fact we do not have sidewalks.

Dwarves at Snow Whites Birthday Party

Crossing the Extension Bridge

This is a watercolor of my oldest son, Mike at summer camp crossing an extension bridge. I wanted to get the group to work as one unit but to keep their individuality.
