A Person, Artist, Software Engineer, Geologist.

It's been just a bag of small things that have been going on lately.   Did a couple of new drawings. Getting hearing aids Tried my hand at mat cutting for framing my art. Great weather outside for hiking and fly fishing. I did a couple of drawings.  One was of the old RICE store on the way to Rocky Fork State Park in TN.  We go there a lot to hike and fly fish.  Very nice place and only about 20min from the house to the north. Did a 2nd drawing of part of a barn that I liked as it had a "Keep Out" sign on it, but the door is open and you can see through to the other side.  I just though it was funny and typical of old barns here that are wide open and you can see everything inside (nothing inside mostly). I, like most older men have hearing loss at the high end of our ranges.  I'm fine most of the time but in noisy places I loose conversations, thus the need for hearing aids.  Soooooo, I waited and waited and waited until now.  I hear and read about hearing aids faili

 First things first.  Here is a little (5x7 vert) drawing I just did of a sign on an old building.  Not a barn but you know, related.  Made out of week, seen its best days and has character. Now about my break from posting (with teeth).  It's all do (mostly) because my wife (Bobbie) got her new puppy and it has teeth.  Sleeps most of the time, but when not, watch out.  Need to watch "Pipper" as she is interesting in chewing anything and everything.  Lot's O toys and one eye on where she is and what she is chewing.  Always chewing.  Chewing Chewing Chewing. Our other dog (Barney) is very good with her and lets her beat him some something awful.  This helps a lot but man the chewing.... Needing to get back to fishing, I mean drawing and painting but these warmer days makes it a wee bit hard to stay indoors.  Between hiking, dogs, fishing and art work, there is not a whole lot of other things to do. You can also see that I've been doing some artwork in a vertical for
