Rain. I didn’t expect it to really come, having hoped to do a bit more yard work today. Not that a little rain will keep me from the outdoors! But here we are, Moby & I, spending some quality time indoors exploring pencils and charcoal again. I probably should be experimenting with a watercolor washContinue reading “Rainy Day scribble practice”

Christmas Cactus
Wingtip Press Reductive Monotype workshop: Day 3 Since I don’t have a lot of time today to work through the petroglyph trip (thanks to my procrastination with pulling together an installation art proposal due at midnight May 12) , I thought I should just pop up the images of the final print. For this imageContinue reading “Christmas Cactus”
Sheep Print
Day 3 & Print #2 at Wingtip Press Studio workshop on Stacked Monotypes Rose worked us hard! Plus we were flat mates and spent evenings chatting and cooking dinner. I had to pull myself away from an extended evening chat just to get drawings sorted for this print. Fortunately, I seem to have landed onContinue reading “Sheep Print”
Sketching Sheep
Coming to a workshop fairly unprepared isn’t the greatest feeling, especially when images are what it’s all about! Fortunately, my computer was loaded with a variety of photos so I spent some time sketching before the second print. I’ve spent the last many months working on dogs images, so why not switch to a differentContinue reading “Sketching Sheep”
Starting the monotype process
Day 2 of the Wingtip Press Workshop: After working for a full day on reductive drawings, we were ready to start the 3 color reduction monotype (also referred to as “stacked monotypes”). Since I didn’t bring along specific images, I chose to work from the previous days pepper drawing. I should also mention Rose learnedContinue reading “Starting the monotype process”
Dogs on Display
It’s official, the dogs are really up. This is the first 2 person show I’ve done since my senior exhibit back in 2003. Kind of scary, but good. Check out the site at The Arts Center or better yet, get in there and see it for yourself. It will be up until May 25. ArtContinue reading “Dogs on Display”
Blue Ball
The 12th and final image for the show. Rogue is finally printed. The images will be on display from April 30 to May 25 in the Corrine Woodman Gallery at The Arts Center of Corvallis OR. Oh, there has been a request for all the images on cards (Maria!) and it could happen. I’ll startContinue reading “Blue Ball”
Mr. Big Nose is finished!
Zeek, you’re done. My eyes and hands need a break. No more printing until the workshop in Boise! Well, just a little bit but it really doesn’t count. Print title: Close Block print, Kozo paper, oil based ink Hurray!!! 🙂
Dog Nose
And it’s still not done yet, but certainly getting a lot closer. Dog noses are such strange things. I debated for quite a while how to approach such a prominent one. They have these little bumps all over the wet surface, something I’m not skilled enough at to represent. Lines work for this experiment. 🙂
Crazy Fur
The elusive Zeek starting to emerge… Eventually I’ll have to start work on his nose. Labradoodles have the craziest coats, curls in one area then wavy hair in others. Beards too, kind of like Moby. Maybe that’s why I enjoy their look. Proofed in a new Burnt Sienna ink, just for the fun of it.Continue reading “Crazy Fur”
