Poem- "Theory on Dessert"

Theory on Dessert

Depth to bubble is space by wish as I count the air between its gifts,
To sum the matter after events can pass away besides our shifts:
Savoring about fortune through Chinese steak on mom’s royal bed of light,
With a villainous badge of honor in flying colors to red night.

Drawing- "Chubby Sketch"


I seem to make facial drawings which resemble my face in my fantasy world.
Right now baby steps are being taken.

What's discovered here is that a face is an odd circle.
The forehead is drawn like the chin/cheek area, providing a chubby look to the guy.
Snowmen are in fact unrealistic yet so essential to metaphorical presentations.
Painting comes in the future, but drawing will take a while.

Runaway Pencil, for a toddler!

Drawing- "Tigger or Mug?"


Tigger, Tigger, Tigger





I made this sketch by using a marker to create one very long line.
Because of the cubist shapes, it's possible to see numerous things from this drawing.

I was having a contour sketch done of a mug.
Then, mom noticed that it was Tigger!


Cubism is on the loose.





You can also point out other possibilities in this drawing by turning it around and around.

Drawing- "Polkadot Mug"


"Polkadot Mug"

I like the shadow I drew with a pen.
It's behind the mug because light is shining onto the mug.
This isn't a realistic drawing, yet those shapes are pleasing to me.
Coasters are imaginary objects to me.


Just imagine this mug in a warm, red room...


It's come to my attention that poster markers can be stubborn things.
How do you color evenly with ink that seems to get darker and darker with the more of the ink that sinks into the paper?
It can be as hard to give the object as it can be to talk about it.

If realism was paramount to professionalism, then Picasso would be a child with strange hands.

Drawing- "Blue Eyes"


This is a Chiaroscuro sketch, it's an abstract drawing.
I wanted to have a blue and purple presentation.
Construction paper is used.

The nose is off, but I have to follow the rules.
I had to follow the rules.

My drawing book lets me draw lines from the outside in.
Sometimes a simple switch of color is its own rarity.
I use scarceness in addition to cubism.
Think of color as gas that needs its shadow; gas without shadow is transparent.

Look, I have to take lots of steps to reach for the stars.
A neighborhood needs to be in my house, so that walks only remain at home most of the time.

Drawing- "Nightly Mug of Rivers"


I was working on a lesson involving light and shadows.

Maybe sketching a mug is easy in black and white, but not with multiple colors!
What would be an easy mug sketch in two colors becomes a complexity of objects in several.

Errors were made, then I had to make them flow well with fresh additions.

Poem- "Brazilian Eye Painting"



Brazilian Eye Painting

                                   

Draggle, draggle, brittle eye,
How you wonder in our sky:
Down above Brazil as high,
Winter in reverse goodbye.
After soaring low to dawn,
Over ghetto in its yawn:
We give volleyball your pawn,
Like Quixote Spanish Don.
That globe on your clouds to wave,
In your eye as clean with save:
Those two colors in big mirrors,
Bounce off sandy hills quite nears.
Hands drink up when pupils rise,
Masters switch back your disguise:
Ideas blooming much fog soon,
Weather on my origin moon.
Cooking sunshine from this view,
Eagles share that pie so new:
Twins of favorite colors too,
To move Jupiter on cue.
Orbits of my taste to show,
Unknown stars light under grow:
South America by throw,
Cutlass in our garden know.







* This is a poem dedicated to this Brazilian painting I saw online: it depicted an eyeball floating over a beach with a secret garden of expansion.

Drawing- "A Boy Made of Doors"


"A Boy Made of Doors"

While working on a sketch of a lesson in my drawing book, a picture turned up of a man with a door knob for his ear.

So, can he listen?

Maybe the abstract door image is a symbol of his engagement with moving sounds.
I use bits of cubism here and there with curves instead of sharp edges.

This drawing was made possible with the use of construction paper, neon markers, and a neon purple doodling pen.
I like to use rare materials for art.

I had actually walked all over Sacramento, California's capital city.
Years ago, I wandered around for art materials to return with.

I charge 50 cents for a copy of this when it's taken me hundreds of dollars and years of shopping to be able to present a more unique medium.

Hey, why not mix a pen with some markers?

Second Professional Drawing (Mug)


This is a sketch/drawing of a mug I got from Dunkin Donuts in Laughlin, Nevada, a casino city by fair means. 

"DDLO"- Dunkin Donuts Love




This drawing is an abstract sketch of the real-life mug.  If I copied the mug as it was exactly, I would've infringed on copyright.

This an interpretation in addition to a presentation.
I drew a heart at the tip of the mug to show the donut shop's love with my visual bias.



Basically, I messed up a drawing book.

First Professional Drawing, 2/2/2017


This is my first professional drawing- cubism, interpretative, neon on lime-textured paper.  Did somebody say Picasso?

I've sketched this face with influence of a drawing book and neon markers.  The lime-textured paper highlights its scarceness quite a bit, plus those Crayola markers provide me with a new situation for sketching as opposed to that involving graphite pencils.  Restaurant logos are influences.
