Random Sketches

Some old, some new.

We just had our first extreme thunderstorm of the summer! I can't wait for more.

A quick cookbook cover commission. The idea was to echo an old fashioned church cookbook while still being elegant. Considering the quick turn around, I'm pretty pleased.

Baby portrait commission - literally. I like the contrast between the blocks of shapes making up the pillows and sheets against the concentration of strokes used for the face. That and I am always a fan of feathered edges. This was a nice change of pace and something I might come back to later.

Since I can't show you... well, anything that I'm working on right now because of contractual agreements. Have a quick portrait of TR. Teddy!

A small painting of Richard Wilson for a friend. This is post 'Merlin' mania, of course. I'll be posting full illustrations later this week.

basic business cards for my mom's landscape design and gardening business. 

Lainie, the best poodle of them all.
