I responded to someones request for a drawing of a box elder bug yesterday and drew an Art Card of one before breakfast.  The little buggers run around and smell bad but they don't bite.

This drawing is one of my nephews friends who was hanging out at his graduation party.  He was pretty mellow about my sticking a camera in his face.  Didn't get his name however.

Thought I would give a straight pencil drawing a go as I had not really done any in a while.

Here is another portrait from last week.  This one is of my uncle Bob who passed away a few months ago.  He was a sailor during the Korean war and a dairy farmer.

I was looking at my fall leaf series and decided I needed to do more of them.  With only twenty one art card sized drawings done it's just not enough.  So I banged out a couple yesterday while working on more portraits.

"Basswood Leaf", colored pencil, 3.5"x2.5", 2009-06-18




Both are currently on ebay, search seller braindeadaesthetic or see the entire leaf Art card series here: http://www.braindeadaesthetic.com/pages/drawings_ATC_leaves.html

After years of direct avoidance I decided to give portraiture a go.  This is a woman at a friends party, I don't know her but I liked her profile.  The photograph has lawn chairs and clutter in the background but does have a leafy green cast.  I kept the green and added a Blue Moon for contrast.

It has been years since I did a drawing only in graphite pencil.  So yesterday I decided to give it a go on an Art Trading Card.  This is of a friends pet dog and I will be giving it to her next month.
