I confess, there's never been a lot of interest in this blog, but that doesn't mean I should stop posting stuff - even if its only for my own visual journal.
I've been painting and drawing, some plein air and some studio work with other like-minded folks with some success (and more duds, but that's how we learn, right?). I quote my lovely friend Brian, so often - he says he can't claim it as he heard it from another artist, but he's the one I heard it from -"Some days you're the bug and some days you're the windshield." So here's a few things drawn and painted since 2022 that I felt were mostly 'windshield' worthy - with a few bugs thrown in too ;-)
