Fantasy Grid
I started this sketch back in October during the New Orleans Film Festival. The drawing gave me something to work on while waiting for the next film to begin. I finally finished it January. Like similar grids, before this one, I kept the direction open-ended. I wasn’t worried about keeping shapes a certain way or having a specific formula for the whole image.

Copeland's
This drawing took a while to complete. I began it when I went to a Copeland's Restaurant. You will notice the similarity of this one to Fox and Hound Shaded. In this one I wanted the effect of a map. I've been on a tangent with map-like drawings.

Just Add Circles
The title “Just Add Circles” is my reaction to a recent online design trend that includes groupings of concentric circles as a pattern. Anyway, I played with circles inside circles, but I made it my own. Also, I drew vertical lines to break up my shapes as a positive/negative space game – if you will. I rendered the piece with graphite on Reeves BFK paper. It is a rag paper that can take a lot of abuse.
This is one of several pieces that I created using current Internet themes. I used different media for each work. They were all completed for a group show last summer.

Continuous Corners
At one of the free film screenings I started this drawing. As I mentioned in a previous post, there have been fewer of them.

Bugs Shaded
These shapes were generated form a book of stencils of bugs. I overlapped them multiple times and then shaded them. I played with negative and positive shapes as I did this. It took a very long time.
