I love to draw guys with big wild beards. I'm now over my trepidation about doing a portrait without an eraser!

75 in 75 day 26

The re-inactors at the Kearney pow wow had their guns set up in a tripod so I had to take one of this .  Inscribed on the gun it says 1853 Enfiled. A little Wiki info. about these guns. The term “Rifle-Musket” meant that the rifle was the same length as the musket it replaced, as a long rifle was thought necessary so that the muzzles of the second rank of soldiers would project beyond the faces of the men in front, ensuring that the weapon would be sufficiently long enough for a bayonet fight, should such an eventuality arise.

75 in 75 Days 24 & 25

I've always loved the Linoma beach light house.  Tried a colored pencil drawing once but it didn't turn out.
My first portrait in pen and ink. Wasn't as hard as I thought. This is a native american man that let me take his pic as we were watching the pow wow in Kearney.

This is another I did during the oil change :) I took it while at Yorktown Beach VA.  The watercolor is Derwent Watercolor pencils. I love the bright colors these produce.

Just in time for fall!  Okay, Okay, I'm not supposed to use anything but pen and ink but I was sitting getting an oil change and only had my watercolors with me and had to see how the paper would take water.  It did wonderfully.  These are opaque watercolor, Less see through.

I had to post this one early and out of order for my cousin Lisa.  It's her dog Nashville. I believe he's a Newfoundland. He's absolute bear in size and teddy bear in heart.

This is from the Tennessee Chattanooga Game we went to. At this point I guess they don't deserve the props.
