This repository has a two fold purpose. One, to keep a record of the watercolor, water soluble oil and colored pencil pieces I paint and their evolution. Secondly, to maintain a record of my past, and possibly future, writings.

A New Place to Blog

From now on I will occasionally blog at DeltaGypsy Studio. Google insists that members share more and more of their personal lives by linking all things Google. If I want to share I will say when I want to share. I shouldn't have to opt-out. Google has become another Fookbase. "Do no harm." That is BS. Goodbye Blogger/Google. You have crossed the line. Any comments should be made at my WordPress blog. I will not return to this blog. So long.

Completed Jackrabbit

Finally completed my colored pencil drawing of a jackrabbit. It is from a photo I took several years ago. I thought he or she was a splendid looking rabbit. Hope I did it justice. The 5" x 7" drawing has been scanned, enhanced and printed as note cards. The original will be shown in our local art show this month.

Jackrabbit Drawing

The basic drawing done. Now I need to determine if I need to ground it and how.

More Jackrabbit Possibilities






Several more versions to contemplate. A definite round file and a true pencil to paper possibility. Thank you Artrage.

Jackrabbit Progress





Just about finished with the body of the jackrabbit. Using the iPad app, Artrage, to play with backgrounds before putting pencil to paper. Used Filterstorm to prepare rabbit photo for import to Artrage.
