More Sketches...
Anyone ever thought of a super-hero propelled by boosters? Most likely not practical, but in cartoon and fiction anything goes.

Cro-Magnon caricature with a face loosely basing on artistic rendering by research concern.

Another Cro-Magnon caricature. A variation of the one above.

Personally conceived character, inspired by Japanese anime.

Brain storming Rough Sketches...

A preliminary rendering of the theme of "two personalities", posted in another entry; see: "Canvas-Mosaic" - 4 .

It's a common misconception that the dinosaurs went extinct; a branch of dinosaurs gave way to the birds we see today, for instance.

Theme featuring an elderly lady having a peaceful tea-time.

Several portraiture sketches...




The so-called "Tracy's" rock (aka the Split rock or Station 6 boulder)  on the Moon surface. Space with its "boundless" feel, will likely remain the final frontier of human exploration through the lifespan of humanity as a species.

Another view of the Moon scenery.

Majestic beast; a beautiful sight like the fire behind it...but like how fire can burn when poked, this majestic creature can strike back with deadly force, if provoked!

Michael Jordan back in the heyday of the Chicago Bulls

A Maasai warrior/pastoralist. "Westerners" are particularly fascinated by them, to the point where they are used to stereotype Africa in 'western' pop culture.

A rare sight perhaps; those who have had the opportunity to play chess with a chimp will probably appreciate this work.

The lion remains one of the main wildlife attractions of the African continent. The theme of this art apparently speaks to the capacity of "blending in". The ability to blend in with its surrounding, when approaching a prey, gives the lion an advantage. You can't go wrong, if you can blend in....well, the chances of benefiting from this ability is high.

Mountainous and high terrain landscapes can make ideal subjects of artwork scenery all on their own, but sometimes it doesn't hurt to props in their as one of the main focuses of the scene. A truck next to rugged terrain are compatible to make a statement!

Hard to ignore elements of pop-culture, as we are routinely immersed in it, like it or not. Having enjoyed re-runs of the old Mary Tyler Show of the 70s, I've been inspired to produce this rendering of the show's main star, Mary Tyler Moore.
