Just finished this 12 1/4 X 10 in. pen-and-ink drawing of the Petrified Forest NP. The technique I used was stippling with a Micron 005 pen. #fineart #art #parkchat #landscape #pen-in-ink #nationalparks #stippling #painteddesert
This is a pen-and-ink drawing using dots (stippling). It is about 12 by 10 inches. The picture is of Petrified Forest National Park, just after a thunderstorm.

Cité Soleil is located in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. This mixed-media piece is on an illustration board. Posters and limited edition prints are in private collections. I completed this piece after visiting Haiti with a non-profit group in the early 80's.

This is a recent pencil-on-paper drawing of a rock on the Racetrack, in Death Valley NP. This rock stood out because it moved in the opposite direction from the other moving rocks in the area on the Racetrack Playa. #art #drawing #geology #deathvalleynp #desert #rock #drawing #pencil
