These are some sketches that I did while enjoying the snow falling for the first time ever on Christmas Eve in Arlington, TX.  I always loved doing these characters around the Holidays and it has been far too long.  So even though this year is almost over…enjoy!

This was a drawing of Rudolph that Jaiden did on the computer with a little help from me.  He tells me that when he gets older he will help me at my office and do whatever I tell him to.  I am looking forward to possibly keeping cartooning in the family…possibly (crossing fingers).  Oh yeah, Jaiden wanted to make sure everyone knows he is 4 yrs. old

Well….I have good news!  I am alive…despite my absence from the DAP as of late.  I did decide however to make a post again.  I will understand if my membership is now under review from the high council though.  A few weeks prior, we were given the them of music.  I thought it was interesting that the first song to draw inspiration from was Pyramid Song by Radiohead.  I can vividly remember the summer when this song and related video came out.  I absolutely loved the music video for this song and made a sketch that later became a painting that summer of 2001, I believe it was.  So here is the sketch and I may find an image of the painting.  I unfortunately sold the original painting at a yard sale awhile back….but a metal sculpture developed from this same string of inspiration and is featured in my studio work.
