Perelandra

My friend and art director, Ned, knows me well. He plays to my strengths. This is the creature that Ransom encounters in the caves on Perelandra just before he kills the un-man.

Underlight

This is of a friend/friend's wife. The sun was shining through the window and reflecting off the pew in front of her; that's where the underlighting is coming from. I was very happy with this drawing - especially as it was done during Sunday school!

Faculty Meeting Drawing

Griffin. I like monsters and faculty meetings are good places to draw monsters. They help me pay attention and not do things like stare at the forsythia bushes or the giant flowering weeping cherry tree right outside the window.

Crab Claws

I drew a crab claw (a blue crab) in my drawing book and then made an etching out of it.

Faculty Drawings

This is a shark drawing from a faculty meeting. Drawing in meetings is about the only way I can pay attention.

The Pelycosaur Strikes Back

For the secret dimetrodon lovers out there, here's another one. I'm sure there are no secret dimetrodon lovers out there, and if there are, they have never stumbled across this site. Anyway, this is another Photoshop fling.

The Ever-Lovin'-Blue-Eyed Thing

The Thing. This was a sort of warm up or practice piece. Just some fun in Photoshop.

Self Portrait

Self portrait, Photoshop.

Double Portrait

These don't really go together, but I like the way they seem to have some kind of quasi-relationship on the page, especially with the stark white background and the way the deer's neck lines up with the woman's collar.

A Pair of Preachers

Our church was originally a Christian Science church. Some of the accoutrements of that building have remained and been adopted by us. Among them are the Corinthian columns at the front of the sanctuary. I used to hate them, but I have since read of the possibility of them being symbols of resurrection. Anyway, I put Corinthian capitals on our pastor and a guest preacher. Pencil and watercolor pencil.
