I did a whole series of civil war general portraits in the early 90s. Unfortunately, back then, the source material wasn't nearly what it is today and so that is reflected in the detail I was able to have in my portrayals.

Still, I was pretty pleased for what I was able to do at the time.

Who knew decades ago, Mitch McConnell would be the subject of an art scam

On a serious note, there are some talented artists here. I can't draw a straight line with a ruler

I wasn't sure if it was cocaine Mitch, or pencil neck Schiff.

I've loved to draw since I was a toddler.

Edit: Obviously my pics didn't post correctly. ??
Anyone have a hint on how I can fix this?

I have no artistic ability.  Even my stick figures look disproportionately fat.

Here is a random dump of some shit I have worked on. Some paying jobs some just garbage doodles

crap doodle



Chair dwg that turned into a chair





Spaceship Dwg that I dumped into Photoshop




Design for some shelves



Cleaned up for a sales pitch



Done





My 1st paying job was at a sign company but it led to me working at the Zoo in the exhibits/Graphics dept

This exhibit was only blueprints but I got to design a lot of the features and this drawing was used by the development dept to get sponsors for the areas of the building, I have a marker colored version somewhere but can't find it on my laptop



Mural in the building 16' x 27'. Did this with my boss. This is 1/2 done



Kinda weak but a fun job. Elephant size comparison graphic



This was kinda fun, I did charactures of all of my coworkers and they became a welcome message in an entrance tunnel at the zoo. Wierd Al commented on it




I teach now and run a robotics team. There is a tradeshow booth every year so I taught my kids to mural paint





I also worked at a community College with a sweet office. I used to do marker drawings much to the chagrin of my boss who wondered wtf I was doing instead of my job












When the head guy retired I made him a card. His office had a lot of wild life outside



Long Lake MI

I drew from the time I was 5 or 6 until one day in my mid 20s. I started to draw that day amd it was like i was out of stuff to draw. Near 30 years now. I illustrated training manuals at work drawing machinery and disassembly procedures. This was before the internet and any easy way to put a photo in a manual.

I think about trying to get back into it but dint really have time for it.
