There are a lot of different paths to various ends. When I left art school 25 years ago I figured my art and design career was pretty much over. On the first day of orientation the school president spoke to the incoming class and tried to impress upon us that we were different and that work, work, work was the means to an end. I might agree with him on the work part, but I don't think we were any different than any other young person trying to make their way in the world. Some might have better gifts than others artistically, but each person is gifted in a different way. Whether that's artistically, mechanically, socially or otherwise, everyone has something to offer.
I love illustration in general. Pen and ink illustration in particular. I hope to share and display some work (much of which is old) and hope you enjoy it. I'll even attempt some explanations on inspiration, methods and tools. Comments and collaborations are hoped for.
Today I am involved in the day to day operations of a sign and graphics shop. I miss the chance to sit and draw and hopefully this blog will help to get whatever creative juices I have flowing again. Comments are always welcome.
