Brian has started screenprinting and this is one of his first efforts.
A botanical drawing of Masdevallia patula from a book.
Here is the bag he made from the second print from the screen.
I keep whining about how all my photos have power lines cutting through them. Decided to focus my attention on the lines themselves. I will probably make a public pool for these at some point.
An employee was retiring..can you tell she worked in the Accounting Department? :) I did this drawing and gave it to her as a gift during her retirement roast. I had it blown up to a very large size so it could sit behind the speakers as she was roasted, she loved it.
This is a pen and ink sketch of freesia. Today I came across this little drawing when I was going through some notebooks in my studio. I did this sketch a few years ago as a demo in a little drawing class that I was teaching. Although I can see some things in this sketch that I might want to change, I do like it just as it is. So tonight I took a picture of the sketch, transferred it into the computer, and cropped it to get this composition. Now if I want to, I can do something more with this sketch, but even if I just leave it alone, it is good to have the image in the computer.
A line drawing self portrait.

One of several original "vector art" (line drawings on a computer) I submitted to the 'Curiosity Kits' company, who were looking for a new artist for their cool kits. My hourly rate (which I thought was more than reasonable) was too high for them. Oh well. Oh, my wife said I need to explain the term "vector art." In the digital world a photograph or a painting is called a "bitmap" image - if you enlarge someone's eye on a scanned photograph, it quickly becomes "pixelated," breaks apart and looks like lots of little squares of color. Software such as CorelDraw (that I prefer) and Adobe Illustrator create line drawings that can be scaled or enlarged (also reduced) to ANY size, and retain their clarity perfectly. Each type of program or software have their uses. Photo retouching is best done in programs like PhotoShop... technical drawings are easier and better in "vector art" programs. Many times, graphic artists use both to achieve the best result.
