A vision I’ve had for a long time. Imagine a lush, sprawling garden, with fountains, grottos, follies, and ancient weeping willow trees over a placid river. Can you imagine all the garden parties and Victorian delights that could be enjoyed in such a setting? This is just a small piece of it . . .
In Italy, I was with a friend to a local restaurant where pair of guitarists were having a jam session. The resulting picture came out so well that I decided it needed a post of its own.
I’ve been abroad in Europe for a month, which means I have a bit of a backlog of sketches to share. Enjoy!
It’s been a while since I’ve done any tango sketching. Like the last one, this is taken from a video screenshot, only from a different couple.
Lethal little old ladies will never stop being funny.
I’ve been tired of not having anything new to post. Until inspiration hits me (hopefully very soon), here is the contents of my brain at the moment.
Another foray into landscapes. This one I decided to post in its rough, unedited version.
As far as landscapes go, I’ve always liked cliffs. They have nice, solid, decisive lines, and add a dramatic touch to otherwise mundane scenes. With the weather at the moment, I rather wish this scene were reality.
In many classic villains, there’s a sense of torment or inner conflict– a humanizing element that makes them more compelling to the audience.
Not so in Villainous Villiam . . . 
This dastardly character takes an almost childlike delight in cruel and malevolent deeds. Not as shred of doubt exists in his mind that diabolical wickedness is not only fun and profitable, but that everyone should try it!
Be it kidnapping busty maidens, laughing at fat children, or gleefully stomping on flowers that have been watered by the tears of suffering widows, our Villy is living proof of what happens when you don’t go to church. Don’t be like him, folks!
