UP and UP
8.5″ x 11″ Marker on Watercolor Paper
Those of you that are familiar with Keith Haring will probably think that this drawing resembles his work. Those of you that like his work will probably like this drawing. Those of you that are still reading this are probably wondering how many more times I will write “those of you” or “probably” in this paragraph. I’ll probably only write those of you this last time.
CIRCLE GETS A DOT
8.5″ x 11″ Marker on Watercolor Paper
After I finished this I looked at it and it reminded me of the old game show Hollywood Squares. Then I put it down and came back to it a few days later and… it still reminded me of Hollywood Squares. I know circle gets a square or x gets a square is how it went, but in mine circle gets a dot instead.
THE PATTERNS (GIFTED)
8.5″ x 11″ Markers on Watercolor Paper
I’ll make something with circles. No, how ’bout lines or squares. No. I don’t know. Maybe some fades and checker boards. This is what the conversation in my head sounded like until I just started using them all. The Patterns is a mash up of… well, patterns.
SOPHIA’S WORLD
8.5″ x 11″ Marker on Watercolor Paper & 8.5″ x 11″ Watercolor on Paper
Sophia’s World is inspired by my 4 year old niece Sophia (Sophie). With my collection of Sharpie & Prismacolor markers I tried to put my own twist on Sophie’s creation. When my version was presented to her she simply asked, “why he do that?” I think she felt kind of ripped off. I thought it was a cool idea, but I’ll have to check with Sophie first next time. Mine is the one on the left, in case you were wondering.
