Sketch #3

This was an exercise in organic sketching. What started off as a curved line turned into a sketch of a left eye which then became a whimsical plant. I never know which way my mind will take me. I guess it's a good thing I'm not chemically dependent!

Sketch #2


So this is what I get when I sketch next to my wife while she watches the Bachelor. Maybe It's the result of all the snarky comments we were making about those crazy B's...especially that chick that wore vampire fangs. Winner!

Sketch #1


This sketch is of my mom. My dad snapped this in our garden in Southern California house when she was in her early 20's. My mom died of AIDS in 2009 and I miss her every day. She was 54. I find it hard sometimes to remember her face. I have to revisit photographs to remember the details. I wish I could hear her call me Mikey just one more time. I don't think I'll ever get over her being gone.
