New Drawing

Tiger's Breath

Tigers Breath is a small drawing I am working on. It is done with watercolor and graphite on a digital print.

Another piece for the Timeline

Materials used: watercolor, graphite, on cut digital print.

Riding

This is the latest in my timeline project. This piece is small, 8X10", it seems to be begging for a larger paper. I may work this image again larger or with more empty space. I don't think it is done, it doesn't seem right to me. I will sit on it for now and think.
Materials used: graphite, watercolor, and watercolor pencils on rag paper.

Transfusion

Another piece for the timeline project that I am working on. graphite, watercolor on digital print.

Sea Serpents

Another drawing that I completed using the same photo as Seas to Forest as the basis of the piece. This drawing is a bit more haunting then the previous and more indicative of what I am really try to illustrate.

Seas to Forests

A drawing I completed today on a photographs of my small sets. I used watercolor and graphite on the digital print. I like the transparency and luminosity that these materials give the piece.

More experiments

Today I worked in the basement with my lights and little drawings. I am pleased with the how rich the color is in these few pieces.

I took a few photos with the sheep. I wasn't planning on using him, but it seemed right. The sheep reminds me of nursery tales I sing to my daughter over and over.

Ship drawings begin

This weekend I have taken a break from my drawing project and began work on the petite dioramas. These images are created using small 2D drawings that I set up like a theater and then photograph. I used some colored gels with my lighting in order to introduce color and mood. I am going to some experimental drawing onto these prints. Part of me enjoys the simplicity of the images, but I feel driven to work them more.

The imagery is referencing my hallucinations from when I was in a coma. These are just the beginning, but I hope that they end up somewhere exciting.

my bed was a boat.....

When I was sick in the hospital with ARDS I hallucinated that my bed was a boat and I traveled across the world searching for a cure. I found this illustration online and it fit my story well.
