Udderly adorable.

When you’re feeling low, going through a rough patch, got the blues, down in the dumps, between a rock and a hard place, chips are down, sƕ*t outa luck, in over your head, bending over backwards, can’t see the silver lining, or the light on the horizon, broken-hearted, got the ol’ brown helmet, down-and-out, or at the end of your rope.

(hang in there, grrrl!)

Avalanche of idioms; did I leave any out?! 🐒

This is a recreation of a doodle I did in high school for a friend.

Really enjoyed using the promarker brush™ set I just got. It adds a lot to a sketch. Also finally got around to using my isograph 0.1mm pen.

This is a poster I made in college for a kickball tournament between the art and music departments. The design that was chosen instead of mine was dumb.

I feel honored to have been chosen for a write-up in a couple local magazine publications featuring my art in their December issues. You can see the publications here: www.exploringthetrails.com/issues
and www.thelandabove.com/issues

I call this, “fat guy in tub”.

Decided to lean into this spooky season and draw what I do best.

Sometimes at work I have to wait around and guard our survey equipment so it doesn’t get stolen repeatedly.. because it’s been stolen repeatedly. Getting paid to draw is my favorite.

Sold these two paintings.
Thanks, Ken!
Hope you enjoy them as much as I have!

Happy Birthday, Grandad. I miss you!

[I lost my desire to paint for a few years, but I felt lead to paint this in honor of my grandfather after his passing ten years ago and forced myself to pick up the brush. It broke the slump I was in.]

Thank you for all the ways you’ve impacted my life and thank you for being such a steadfast (earthly) example of what Christ’s unfailing love looks like.
