This was another of the squares from my Drawing final. This technique is called, if memory serves, reduction. Reduction is not easy to do using graphite...Charcoal is the prefered medium for reductionary drawing, but our final project was supposed to be strictly graphite (although many of my companheiros/classmates ignored this "request"). This is a wooden cat and is the same wooden cat used in the drawing of the "forwar-looking cat." My use of "the darkest darks and the lightest lights" was as good as it could be in this drawing.
Our Senior Systems Administrator speaking at the Large Scale Production Engineers Meetup about Graphite, a site monitoring tool.
At the 2025 OLCF User Meeting, attendees got an exclusive look inside a piece of history: Oak Ridge National Laboratory's iconic Graphite Reactor.
Built in 1943 during the Manhattan Project, this groundbreaking reactor was the first ever to operate continuously, paving the way for advancements in nuclear science—from powering medical breakthroughs to transforming industries.
While decommissioned today, it stands as a National Historic Landmark, offering a fascinating window into the origins of nuclear innovation.
Charcoal & graphite in sketchbook
My goal is to strengthen my drawing skills by sketching everyday in my brand new sketchbook. This is the first entry.
The skull was sketched from my Anatomy For Artists book and I also studied two figures from masters paintings.

The title pretty much describes it, basically the movement of ideas and how they travel in my mind sometimes.

Graphite drawing, inspired by illustrator Allen WIlliams. In William's book, The Witches' Kitchen, there are these creatures known as cribs, reanimated bird skeletons with an opal replacing their eye. The crib plays an important role in the story and ever since reading that book I have been in love with the concept of these creatures. William's creepy illustrations got me interested in graphite and taught me about the importance of using a full range of values.

"When you lose what you love, live on, live on
When the road gets too rough, be strong be strong
When you can't understand, but you're starting to see, it'll work in the end, you just got to believe. Keep on, keep on."
