A Trip to Terre Verte

Behind my suburban/post-rural neighborhood lies a stretch of woods.
A adequate getaway to admire and record nature's aesthetics.


"Are you with the Times-Union?" asks a local fisherman.
Then after 5 minutes of dialog,
he informs me of a 14 foot gator that lives in this very lake!
yessss
sss.

Soon after, I took a landscape pic,
and after careful analysis, caught a osprey in a mid-air dive...


"ohhh shi-"

"Douche!"and flies away...

Finally, I give you what you want.
A Dragonfly devouring a Ladybug...

...and then the Dragonfly's dance.

A couple more pics are here, and don't litter!

Unrest

2010

For many reasons, I've been working everyday till 6am,
striving to get my work where it needs to be.
Then in one of my ADD moments, I decide to take some pictures
of one of my favorite tapes I got in summer school back in '94.

Fireworks Phase II



Fireworks Phase II
Ink on Rives BFK
11.5"x7.5"
2010

The process was simple.

Ditch the photo reference, rough pencil sketch,
loose/bold inking with the B-5 Speedball nib,
then clean up with a G2 extra fine pen and a x-acto.

One more picture will be produced incorporating new and used
techniques,
while aiming for a slight sense of satisfaction.
