Pen/Ink
“Tidal Wave”
Tombo brush pens on drawing paper. Approx. 9” X 12”
This is a drawing technique where there’s only one rule; to draw the first thing that comes into my head, and to continue to draw whatever shapes, images and thoughts that manifest.
This drawing shows how the things we idolize and glorify may one day inundate and wipe us out.
Design for a band flyer
Tombo brush pens on drawing paper. Approx. 9” X 12”
This design was for a client’s band flyer. The drummer and double bassist are inspired by two claymation characters from a Nina Simone video, as requested by the client, but the guitarist came out of my own imagination. Simple black and white graphics paired with a single color create a playful scene.
Graphite
“Bougainvillea”
Colored graphite on paper. Approx. 9” X 12”
I created this piece at a friend’s house where I was taking care of their cat; they had a beautiful garden and when I saw this patio column entwined with vines of bougainvillea I knew I had to draw it.
Tho appearing detailed it’s loose and impressionistic, with a feeling of bright sunlight.
Tattoo design
Colored graphite on paper. Approx. 9” X 12”
Designed for a friend; personal symbols on the connecting of two soul mates.

“My Napping Mother”
Graphite on paper. Approx. 11” X 17”
Anyone I can catch holding still long enough is subject to Guerrilla Drawing; using someone as an art model without them knowing. My Mom was always fair game whenever she fell asleep in a chair.
“My Sleeping Father”
Graphite on Paper. Approx. 9” X 12”
My Dad was in constant ill health for a couple of years before he passed on, and he had several instances where he had to be admitted to the hospital.
One time I thought he might not make it through, and I sketched him while he was sleeping in the hospital, thinking it may be the last time I’d see him alive.
The frailness of life…

“Three Stages of the Phantom”
Graphite on Paper. Approx. 11” X 17”
I was trying different techniques to block in the features of the Phantom’s face.
The progression of features have the same life in the eyes.
