I love faces of all kinds. A lot of times a child's face captures  the curiosity or joy of a moment better than an adult. Children don't  hide their emotions ... there's no reason to for them.This child looks  happy and curious to me. It's a face full of a child's wonder and  imagination. This is a great time of year for children anyway. It's the  Christmas season and it is a time where I wish I could be a child again  so that I could experience the wonder of it all like I did when I was a  kid. Maybe this little picture can help you capture the joy and warmth  of the season. Enjoy!

Prrrr! You can feel the love between these two cats? You can see it ... it's evident, they obviously love each other. It's so funny how everyone says that animals don't feel what humans feel. I'm not so sure. Look at these two! Humans can learn a lot by watching animals I think. Maybe we'd all get along a lot better.

I had to draw them. They're beautiful. Enjoy!

I have been a little down in the dumps this past few days. I've had a few sad things happen lately and I just don't feel very good. I decided to own it and draw it. So I did! I got it out of my soul and onto the paper and now I feel much better. Not great, but better. Phew!

I love wild cats. As a matter of fact, when I was a kid, I wanted to grow up to be one. Lions, Tigers, Leopards, Cheetahs ... oh my. Sigh ... I'm grown up now and I can't become a wild cat, but I can draw them all I want! These cats are magnificent creatures! Enjoy!

Jim Morrison: Singer / Songwriter. Born in Melbourne, Florida, the son of a naval  officer, he adopted a bohemian lifestyle in California while attending  UCLA while literally homeless, sleeping in any convenient place handy,  friends couches, rooftops, in cars and under the pier at Venice Beach.  A voracious reader of books, he started a rock band with fellow student  Ray Manzarek after he graduated. They quickly found two more members,  Robby Krieger and John Densmore. Dubbed with the name "The Doors" it  quickly found fame in the Rock and Roll music world with their music  constantly topping the music charts. Jim Morrison developed a unique  singing voice and became the lead singer of the group. His life style  leaned on mysticism while engaging in drugs, alcohol and bizarre  behavior leading to many legal confrontations with the law. He grew  tired of his fame and sought anonymity in Paris with his long time  girlfriend Pamela Courson. They lived in various expensive hotels while  taking in the usual tourist hangouts. His health was already in decline  and he was excessively overweight. While in a bath tub, he was found  dead at the age of twenty seven. He had been under treatment by a Paris  physician who mercifully stated the cause of death as heart failure  thus avoiding an autopsy. His death was kept secret leading to a  conspiracy theory of a faked death. A Paris funeral service took charge  and Jim Morrison was placed in a standard simple french veneered coffin  and a direct burial was completed at the Famous Le Pere Lachaise  Cemetery in eastern Paris. The grave unmarked for many years became  much to the chagrin of cemetery officials a number one Paris tourist  destination. A stone block was placed over his sealed grave after many  attempts to unearth the grave were made by fans of the occult and  mysticism who came from around the world, performed devil worship  rites, sexual orgies and had plain drug parties at the grave site. They  came over the walls at night. Security guards with dogs patrolled the  grounds while cameras to survey the grave were installed along with  night lighting. Litter, wine bottles, drug needles and graffiti were  left behind. Souvenir hunters took every thing that could be uprooted  or torn free. Officials have perceived the grave as a nuisance and  suggest that when the lease expires a new burial site will have to be  found.

I just drew this a few minutes ago ... I've been reading this book about the life of Jim Morrison and I've been fascinated ever since.

This is a pointelism and pen & ink piece I did several months ago and I tried to sell it on ebay with no luck. I figured out that spring and summer aren't the best time to sell art on ebay. Well, I listed it again today and it got a bid almost immediately. Go figure. Timing is everything on ebay.

This is an African woman feeding her child. From the look on her face, her life is exceedingly diffucult but she finds a few moments of piece with her child. It's a fierce instinct to protect a life that has come from your own body. It's like no other instinct on the planet. A mother would easily die to protect her child.

This is a study in light and shadow and I love how it turned out. The picture I used for reference is one that I couldn't figure out if it was taken a long time ago or recently. But it doesn't  matter because a mother feeding her child timeless by itself.
