Starting with my best friend and favorite model, bubba sketches. He, at least, does not move so much!

Nice face, lovely, colorful hair ... I like the spiral design on the cheek, and the eye is gorgeous. I wonder about the tears inside. The inside and the outside. Wouldn't it be great if they really were almost the same? They will be ... gently and persistently, following the path of least resistance, like water. We learn so much resistance in our younger years. Ah well. Whatever we have learned can also be let go of.

Here is my view from the family room window. The window is made up of three four foot wide by eight foot tall windows placed side by side... so really the whole wall is window... When I look out I see, starting up close to the house: buffalo grass and wild flowers, a low rock wall, the valley, then distant hill formations, and mountains after that and finally the sky... which have many different scenes. In this one it is the clouds and rain. Many times we can watch the storms come over the mountains in the distance and watch it raining on different parts of the scene before it reaches us We see lightening shows, beautiful sunsets, dust storms, all the actions of mother nature!

Sketch completed using pencil, water colour pencils, inktense pencils.

Thanks Fi. I also put a photo on my page just for you. It is the oriental guy with oriental writing on his face. I wonder what he is saying? But I know you like photos like this so there it is.
