A couple new sketches



A group spearheaded by my pal Russ Walks are posting some hero sketches from the Covid 19 crisis.  I chose Capt. Brett Crozier of the United States Navy.  His stand for his sailors and the manner in which he has stood up in the face of political posturing is inspiring.  Truly a "True Blue" leader and one that we need more of these days.

A small painting


My mother in law wanted an "ancestor" painting and dropped this frame on me.  So I filled it with an anonymous gentleman I named Nicolai, after my favorite fine artist Nicolai Fechin.  No, Fechin did not look like this.  Anyhow, I put The Shadow motion picture soundtrack on and finished this before the final note was played, about 45 minutes.  Fun exercise that I'd like to do more of.
