The Daily Sketch: HELP! A SERPENT!!! SERPENT!!!
Remember that pesky bird in Walt Disney's Alice In Wonderland? Only this time, it's not a large Alice (Have you ever seen an Alice?) this is a real serpent, well real as in made by me. This particular serpent can be found in bodies of water in the Uintah Basin, like Green River, Flaming Gorge, and Starvation Reservoir, at least in my make-believe world, that's where they are found. I suppose that when late fall approaches they meander to the Colorado River and swim to southern Arizona for the winter. They keep on the lookout for bears that steal hikers/camper's food. Remember, a fed bear, is a dead bear. The bears are high in protein, and help these beasts swim longer, and keep them on dry land for prolonged period, in necessary....yeah. I could go on forever about this.......

The Daily Sketch: Continued work in progress
Normally I would avoid posting this step-by-step process of unfinished work, but in order to keep up with the blogging, I just as well share this because it's what I'm working on. How many of you start with the eyes? So far it's the best way to start, get all the small stuff out of the way, and use the colors to finish the rest of him. It's the beauty of digital, you can point sample colors, and you don't have to worry about trying to re-mix the paint, if you run out. This is saving lots of time that way. I'm trying to make this look like acrylic on textured board, because that's how I started this ongoing project.

The Daily Sketch: The Oviraptor
So it seems I've been doing a lot of family history work for my darling African Grey Parrot, Nahla these days. This is one of his ancestors. The Oviraptor. They were around during the Late Cretaceous period, which was about 80-73 million years ago. They were found in the Gobi region of Mongolia and China. I ran out of Peacock Green Prismacolor, so I had to finish it off with Copenhagen Blue. Also I did this in my sketchbook, so I ran out of room, thus making his legs a little shorter than what they should be.

The Daily Sketch: Muse
A little something I put together earlier this week. I had so much fun with the pen drawing that I decided to do another one in Black Raspberry Primacolor pencil.

The Daily Sketch: The Caudipteryx
This is a drawing of the Caudipteryx, otherwise known as, Winged Tail. These were around during the early Cretaceous period, which was around 125-199 million years ago. They were found in Northeastern China. This drawing is a demonstration of a realistic vs. a stylized approach. I only had room for the head.
