I’m having fun with the MadArt App. It gives me insight and ideas for prospective paintings. The original sketch is upper left. The rest are app adjustments.

#570 and 571 of 1001, Two Cats
Two views of my favorite pet, a cat. Both are small 6×9 paintings suitable for wall art or wall decor. Both are abstracts. The first done in soft pastels, the second a mixture of soft pastels and pen.
1001 Drawings #312, Camping Out
Today’s drawing is another in a series of fairy drawings. I have a fondness for fantasy drawing and illustrations. I hope to do more of these drawings in the future. I hope you like this one.
Daily Drawing #299, Another City Street
Today’s offering is another city street done with colored pencil and pen. I love doing these small paintings because they remind me each house is filled with a story. One which makes them more than just a brick and mortar building. They are someones home.
Daily Drawing #298, The Small Things We Do For Others
I don’t usually do this but i decided to make today’s drawing a collaborative effort. In my day to day I work with high school age children one of which as you can see is a Charlie Brown fan. I thought I would draw the child a cartoon character of my own. The student then took my drawing and turned it into a pseudo Charlie Brown painting. In life there are some things which make you smile. For me it the little things I do for others, not to get any recognition or accolades but because it is part of my heritage as a Christian. I think if we all did the little things for others the world would start to be a better place/
Daily Drawing #293, A Reminder of Things to Come
I know it is the fall but I try to move past winter to the spring to come and the coming flowers like forsythia. In life I find we do the same thing. We look ahead to much instead of focusing on the here and now/ While it is okay for certain things like financial planning it is not good get caught up in the future. In the end you’ll miss a lot of life.
