Still Life with Sunflowers

Time to get back to some painting. This is a painting of some dying sunflowers sitting in my grandparents old honey jar. I started it about 5 years ago but it remained unfinished. I decided to revisit the painting and lighten the background which was a big improvement. A few more touch ups and my signature and it will be done. Click image to enlarge.

Wrecked Car Drawing

Who hasn't done this before? There's a body shop nearby that has a rotating exhibition of wrecked cars out front. This Saturn showed up a few months ago. You wonder about the people involved. I hope everybody's OK by now.

Drawing in Progress

Here's a partial view of one of my latest drawings. The inspiration for this drawing came from a stereoscopic image of WWI soldiers titled, "Now Bring on Your Gas". Anyone who owns a dog would appreciate this image.

New Drawing- Those Who Qualify

This drawing is based on one of those annoying ad banners that I find with my email. The ad reads, "Financial Aid Available to Those Who Qualify". They're giving out money even if you look a little like a crazed hermit. Then why is it so hard to get a loan?

Drawing of WTO Chief Pascal Lamy

I get a lot of inspiration for my drawings from magazines, newspapers, TV and the internet. This drawing was inspired by a Tim Chong/Reuters photo of WTO chief Pascal Lamy in a NY Times article from October 2, 2009 titled "WTO Chief Sees Russian Interest in Joining Waning".

Drawing of Found Robot

I was trolling the internet for robots and found this guy who looked a little like Dave Matthews to me. I believe the purpose of this robot was to to test facial expressions, trying to get him to be a little more human. Something to do with "invertuality". Notice the wires coming out of the back of his head and a lack of hands.
