Icelandic Horse Pen and Charcoal

I was originally working on a Phantom Navy jet but sadly... Mia lost one of the mice she brought into the house and before I could find it.. would you believe it found a way onto my Artist desk and peed all over it. Sigh ~~ So I just tossed it.
Have been meaning to start another one but after that... has taken me awhile to take a chance on another.
Am pretty sure there are no more mice running around the house.

So this one will be a Ink and Charcoal Icelandic Tolting horse based on a photograph Maike has very kindly allowed me to use. Thank you Maike!!
Above you can see the very rough pencil in and just a bit of ink on the mane.


Have just started on this Icelandic's face. Am planning on going slow on this piece as I feel a bit rusty.
Not sure if I will get this one done in time for Christmas but I will try.

The Viking ~ Abstract

This creation, looked like a Viking standing there waiting for a battle to start. Is one of the few pieces I was at a loss to what to call it, hence its title.


Can see a close up of the detail in this Digital Abstract painting.

Cafe Press Christmas card review

This year I decided to use Cafe Press for my Christmas cards. Am very impressed with the print quality, how nice and thick the card stock is and they come in this handy plastic container.


Yes, Family and friends, this year you will be receiving.. Holiday Herald! ;O)

Tholian Web Abstract


The first Abstract I have been able to do for awhile. During the summer it my computer gets to hot to spend the many hours doing a Rendering, so I have to take a break.
Now that it is winter and much cooler out, let the creating resume!
I am calling this one, The Tholian Web..... because it kind of reminds me of a certain episode on a Show.

Spent a November Evening taking photos

A beautifully soft Rainbow Cloud. This is the only place I have lived in the US, where I have seen many rainbow clouds.


Nari, our Maine Coon cat mouser... and Mistress of the road!



Edda, my Icelandic horse filly, in the evening sunshine.
