A few more

So, here are a few sketches I did Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

A lady at Panera and Megan from Adega --- Eric G., I might have beefed him up a bit too much in this sketch 

My back-up pen --- Heidi knitting at Adega

Girl at the Quarry House --- Dude at the QH with some funky posture 

(or maybe it's just a funky drawing)

I stumbled across this file in IPhoto and thought I'd share it.

This is a painting I did last summer, I think.

Later

New Kids on the Blog

So I started a new sketchbook this past week. Check-ch-check-check-check-a-check-it-out

New Painting/sketches

These are sketches I did last night.

I stopped in at Mayorga Cafe today for coffee and ended up sketching this girl at the counter

Mayorga is a great spot, they have cool art on the walls too!

This a commissioned painting I just finished today of Duke Mansion in Charlotte, NC

I went to a UPS store to send it to my client in NC (not cheap)

That is all for today. I will hopefully have more in the next couple days. 

My Inaugural Blog

Welcome to my first Blog of my artwork. I'll start with the sketchbook that I'm basically finishing up with now. Not all of the pages got uploaded, but most of them have. After this I promise the blogs will be much shorter because they will only contain new sketches and paintings.
