I thought I'd take my chances and see if I could improve this sketch. I think I liked it better before but since there's no undo button, there's always scrolling down on the blog to see what it used to look like...

more very quick sketches

Outside of Winters and the west side of campus.

test project

These are two mini-ish landscapes for a test project. They're both views of the Mount Vaca hills in the evening.

sketches

A couple of pencil drawings on the gessoed pages of a discarded library book. The two landscapes are thumbnail ideas for paintings for another project. The still life is just a still life. :)

new artomat blocks are gessoed and underpainted

More small sketchy sketches

total honesty

It's close to impossible to do any painting these days so I am making myself paint under quite (for me) difficult conditions. I'm going to post these things but they are not my best work, just stuff I am doing to keep working. There. I said it. Let's see if I can actually get myself to post these. The cow picture is for the tiny show at the Pence although I probably will wipe it out and do something else. The other two were quick sketches because I had a few minutes left to work...

4 x 4s

More stuff to keep me going...a couple of still lifes...
