'Montana De Birdy'

From a sketch done during a walk at Montana De Oro, central California coast. Another bird, hmm.
Finished up in Painter.

'Axis'
painter and photoshop , from a sketch

detail of "Le Pups"

This one's for Carmen

Many thanks to Carmen for generously providing me with photos of her pride and joy.
This was so much fun to work on , the background is an exercise in different materials and techniques for emulation, but mostly, these pups just make me smile.

I wrapped this up the other night, the original sketch was from May 2003.This is an image that appeared in my mind when I came out of a surgery. My interpretation is that it represents my second chakra, the area of the surgery, there was a vast dark space around the central energy- going off into infinity.
