flapper sketch


my flapper

a couple new sketches





I try to live by Danny Gregory's philosophy that EVERYDAY MATTERSwhich also ,is the title of a book he wrote encouraging creativity everyday, so with that said here are 2 new sketches I just did. I like the flapper but the island woman needs work. Still I offer it here. Tomorrow I am going to Golden Gate Park to see the new Acadamy of Science with it's enclosed Amazon jungle etc. See here are also some vintage photo portraits that continue to interest me. Full mon in assertive/ aggressive aries today so BE CAUTIOUS. Also today marks the 26 yr anniversary of a sexual assault I survived and THRIVED.Also a car I owned blew up and Burnt o the ground.With this history, I will lay low and fly under the radar.......PEACE
