The primary product of my brief and sporadic college career was a thankless career in infosec - but I still have a body of art produced during that period that includes some of my more approachable drawings.

Here are a few samples - I hope you enjoy them!

I wouldn't want you to think I haven't done my homework - here's something traditional. A nice earthy sketch of some flowers from around the campus - I recall getting too excited with the blending and needing to un-do some of it with white pencil.

I think this is some of my best lighting work, at least it always seems to make a big impact on people. It's a little smudged - I should have it mounted. In person it's about 36 x 24 inches.

This one's mounted on a big sheet of pale newsprint with the prominent assertion "Paper Bag Power", as I appear to be menacing the viewer with a paper bag. This was from a series that showed various stages in mutilating a bag - proves (or disproves?) I can do hands. Anecdote: When I broke-up with my girlfriend later that year, we negotiated a deal surrendering some of my artwork - she got the whole series except this one.

As I recall I did this in Biology when I was supposed to be, well, studying Biology and not Art. Do you think such behavior contributed to me failing the class? Doh! Have we had enough traditional stuff yet?

Now let's have some fun: Here's a collage I did with a really hazardous chemical that transfers newsprint from behind onto paper. So first, let me disclaim that this piece is composed from the work of others. Of course, it only transfers shades, not details and certainly not emotion, so I get some credit too. Everyone enjoys this one - in person, it's huge - about 48 x 57 inches - this is just an excerpt from my favorite region.

I'll be gradually adding more material to this section as I dig it out from under a pile of new material. :)
