Turkeys


I know that this was done in my senior year of high school 2001. The assignment was to bring in an old family photo and draw it, then paint it. The photo was taken of me at a zoo around 1984- -1986 with a camera that would redefine the phrase "point and shoot". It was a film roll camera, not a polaroid.

Sailboat

Drawn from a magazine while at MCC around 2014 - 2015. I used marker and colored pencil.

Rock Wall at State Fair

I drew this one from a photo taken of me in high school. It was at the state fair and I thought it would be cool to climb the rock wall. That was until I reached the top and looked down. It no longer seemed like a good decision at that point.

Pat Benatar Portrait?

Is this Pat Benatar? I drew it from a magazine photo in high school and did not label who it was.

Pastel Still Life



This was drawn during or shortly after high school, around 2000 - 2001. I still have those headphones, but not either of the jars.
Around 2006 - 2007, my friend gave me a cat and it went wild in my apartment while I was at work. When it ripped this drawing, that was it. I drove the cat to a deep forest and let it loose. Shortly afterward, a co-worker said that a new stray cat showed up at her place on the same road.
