  • Green Leaf on Gold

    The foreground is a stylized green leaf made in InkScape with pen and nodes. It has a small stem on the bottom and three large points at the top. Inside there are alternating frames that become simple and simpler. The frames have bands of darker green half ovals. I created a background on GIMP2 of…

  • Cracked Dove

    SketchPad Finger Painting… Dark green background, light blue sky overlay, brown and green tree with large strokes. The dove came last with a white body, yellow beak and legs, and a purple eye. The lines are as small as they get. No zooming or bucket fills to keep the dove regular. Just fingers on a…

    Pen, nodes, and ovals in InkScape with yellow, purple and white to form a jagged body and eyes. Transferred to a confetti background on GIMP2 with an artist mark.

  • Node Boy

    The central image was penned from InkScape but instead of leaving the strokes alone as I usually have I dragged the nodes to create a tiny bit more symmetry. I saved with a transparent background, opened it in GIMP2, created a confetti background and pasted the central image onto that. The artist mark is the…

  • Why I’m Here

    I want to assure people that their voice matters. I proclaim that art doesn’t have to be perfect and popular to be valuable to the world. I hope to leave a legacy that encourages authentic expression in speech, writing, art, and religion.

  • Red Man

    He’s angry because he can’t here what you are saying. GIMP2
