Garbage.

I did this years ago for the Philadelphia Zoo. It was the second job I completed for them I think. Anyway, enjoy it's grossness. I had fun researching the bugs and worms that lived in a compost heap. It's good that we have them around or we would all be up to our eyeballs in filth. Food for thought!

Special Touch Ministries Banner

Two years ago I was asked to teach an art lesson at a special needs camp for Special Touch Ministries. Since we had limited time I wanted to make sure to do something that everyone could easily follow and complete. I drew this image of Jesus on 20 pieces of heavy stock and disassembled it before anyone could see what it was. Each camper then colored it using anything from pencils to paint. At the end of the night I reassembled it for the campers to see. To me this is a good allegory of the body of Christ: We are all different, bringing with us our strengths and weaknesses but God still uses them all to bring his love to the world.

...that's what I really didn't expect to see at my recent trip to the Bull Run battlefield in Virginia. There they were walking in the fields in their heavy cloaks and a stifling/humid 95 degrees.

I will always remember him as a man’s man, someone who was never afraid to speak the truth (even in the face of that hideous monster, Rosie O’Donnell). He had values and he acted on them without apology.

Washington's tomb

I drew this back in June when I visited the tomb in Mount Vernon, VA. I wish I had more time but I had to cut the visit short. It really is a beautiful place to visit.

More Psycholinguistic Technologies stuff.
I posted some of these earlier. You'll note the use of the same backgrounds used throughout these sets. I did this in order to cut down on production time and to make it easier for the viewer to quickly point out the differences in the scenarios when using the program.
I discovered in this first set that I really like to draw sad dogs, especially ones that have just gotten into trouble.
The design of this hideously ugly dress is actually based on one that a friend owns, but I won't tell.
I also love to draw grumpy cats.
Although I hate to draw hippies.
You can see Drew Phillips in the top right hand corner of this one. He helped me with the coloring on some of these.

Great Falls, VA.

My wife travels for a living and occasionally I accompany her on her trips. A few weeks ago I went with her to the DC area and visited Great Falls National Park on the Virginia/Maryland border. I sat in the gorge for a few hours and drew some of the dramatic scenery with my brush pens. The top drawing here is out of my comfort zone but I think it came out nice (for my benefit anyway).

1776.

This year the Hussian School of Art (where I teach) is moving into the Bourse building which is located right next to Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, and the Ben Franklin House (to name just a few of the Historic building in the Old City area of Philadelphia). I have always loved history and now I will be surrounded by it.

See you in 4 years, London!
Here is more from the series of goofy Olympic drawings in my sketchbook. Most of these are nonsensical drawings that I do while not trying to think all that much.
I've got to tell you, if you missed the presentation of the Olympic flag to the Mayor of London during the closing ceremonies you missed the best part of the olympics. He was a mess.
I have no idea why I drew a winter sport, but here you go.
And I would really like to try out something like this...
