Nice work!

I know a fella by the name of Jim. Those elaborate pencil drawings you see of Native Americans are what he used to do, before drugs and alcohol took over his daily life. (like a true artist?

)

This not his, but just as an example.

Others, like Bob Ross for an example, amaze me just by virtue, as their paintings go from just a "bunch of messy blurs", to all of a sudden appear as a picture. I have no vision like that. I have to start with a line, and then make the next line... I'm so right brained, lol.

Nice drawing Maverick/I like to think with a pencil too. It helps to have a visual plan of sorts. At least for me it does.

I was washing my Harley and the 60 one day and my daughter was taking pictures. This is one of her pictures and paintings. She calls it Dad's Toys, it is in my office at work.

Seriously, I'm a big fan of Bob Ross. He "sees" the painting before he even starts. He take's a bit of yellow ochre and mashes the brush across the canvas. Looks like crap at first, until he starts knifing in white and brown lines. Now all of a sudden yer looking at birch trees in the Fall.

Baca-thanks for the research. 1995? Wow I thought it was only a few years ago. That guy was amazing!
