Our Rocky World…

Here are drawings of whimsical rock faces on (acid free) paper done with Prismacolor® pencils. [Larger pieces have been done with an acrylic wash, over pen and ink, then finished with charcoal.]  Each piece is a wall of stones conversing or pondering, showing personality, thought and expression.

A young man once put it in rather eloquent words,
“Cool - Rocks with attitude!”  The enthusiasm of youth has assisted in leading to success and winning of awards in this form of art.
Each small piece may be clicked for a close-up, then click on the main piece to return. 

Some have already been sold.


Pieces are also being done with the print industry in mind – fabric or paper – clothing or walls – the application & endeavors can be endless……

Initial inspiration to draw…

After taking a great deal of lessons in drawing at schools: a busy life with 4 children pretty much put it on hold.  Then, one day, I was told of a schedule change for a meeting in Downtown Renton.  If I had gone home I would have had to turn around & come right back.  That wasn’t going to happen.  But occupying my time was essential.  Then Fred Meyer® “stepped in.”  They had a great selection of acid-free paper pads for a good price.  With that and a box of colored pencils, my time was fulfilled, first with still life, then quick portraits, finally – On To Rocks!

After that, art applications with confidence prevailed.
