"Owl" circa 1992 (Charcoal on Newsprint Sketch Paper)



Here is another sketch that I did from my "How to Draw Animals" book. Again, it's a good drawing on it's own but I wish I had an image to compare to the original that I was copying.

"Cat" circa 1992 (Charcoal on Newsprint Sketch Paper)



I had mentioned in a prior post about the book on how to draw animals that I was given in 4th or 5th grade. This is a drawing I did much later from something in that book. I wish I had a scan of the original image I was copying so you could see how close I got.

"Burning Glory" circa 1989 (pastel on sketch paper)



In 1988 George HW Bush (or George Senior as I refer to him now) won the presidential election over Michael Dukakis. The radicals protested for quite awhile over it. It was the first election that I paid close attention to (we even watched videos of debates and interviews etc in government class) I wasn't old enough to vote in 1988 (only 17yrs old) but even then I could see that presidential elections didn't really seem to give a viable choice for real leadership. Almost a year after that election there was even more protesting when the plans for Desert Storm were revealed. The flag burnings were all over the news. This pastel drawing is what my 18 year old mind came up with in response.

Untitled Still Life circa 1989 (watercolor on sketch paper)



I found another picture from that art class I took at the community college!  Like I said in my last post of the art I did that semester, I really didn't like ANYTHING that I did for that class. The teacher was a really harsh jerk instead of nurturing or encouraging and my lack of enthusiasm towards him showed in the work I did for the class. I still have this piece (and the others) in storage in my friends garage in Arizona. I guess I keep it just because I was and still am challenged by watercolor and have this as a reminder.

"Sunset" circa 1989 (pastel on sketch paper)



This drawing is another one from college. Honestly, most of the projects for my art class in college were utter and complete crap. I think I only got a C in the class. Funny how I could be in advanced art in high school and blossom so wonderfully with that teacher and get As and Bs but be so at odds with the community college art teacher!

"Perspective" circa 1989 (watercolor on paper)



When I graduated from high school I wasn't sure what I wanted to be when I grew up. The intellectual and practical side leaned towards engineering but I also still had a passion for art so I took one art class the first semester of college. Because I was on a Pell grant and wasn't working, I had to drop the art since I couldn't afford the supplies out of pocket (my Pell grant barely covered tuition back then). This is the first project I did for that class. It's not a very good digital image because it is a photograph with a cheap camera instead of a scan, but I'm glad to have it.
