Pig Brothers

5.25x8.25 watersoluble colored pencils and ink line done today in my junk journal as part of a WetCanvas Watermedia monthly challenge.  These two litter mates were too cute to pass up, sharing secrets, and wondering what is for dinner.

TV Outlaw of the Wild West

8.25x5.25 ink with Uniball Vision Elite pen on grunge/junk journal done last month, another in my notorious outlaw series.  This one though was an actor portraying a criminal.  Collage at top and old photo stain ink over the image on a gessoed background.  My journal is an old book from 1950s era hardbacks that was discarded and water-stained.

Handsome Blackbeard

11x8.5 alcohol inks on deli/freezer paper done Saturday as one of the demos at Midland Palette Club.  This is another in my Blackbeard series of abstract contemporary men as I love men and love black beards.  I did give this guy a moustache whereas the others didn't have one.
