A Clock Collection

Recently, we drew clocks in one of our Friday drawing class sessions. I demonstrated in class by drawing some very loose clock art. Days later, after the two images were completed, I digitized my drawings and manipulated them in Adobe Photoshop to produce this little clock collection montage. The students really took to this theme and produced some nice artwork. Ink and watercolor.

Mission Fountain

On our trip to San Diego in August, I visited the beautiful Mission San Diego de Alcala in Mission Valley. In the courtyard at the mission, this magnificent water feature stood magically in the noon sunshine. I snapped some photos and was able to recreate this gem back at home. Ink and watercolor.

Hetch Hetchy

The Hetch Hetchy reservoir is one of nature's mesmerizing beauties located in the northern part of Yosemite in California. Before the dam was built the valley was as beautiful as the current Yosemite valley basin. The water from this reservoir supplies the San Francisco area with its drinking water through a series of pipelines. The water travels approximately 167 miles westward to the bay area.

Deserted In Illinois

Near Route 66 in Illinois, an old grain elevator and rail car sit, where in days gone by, this township was very active from all the traffic generated by this famous highway. Now it remains a quiet village away from the hustle and bustle. Ink and watercolor.
