I painted this portrait of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. a few years ago for a friend and it reminds me of the fact that he had a dream . . .
“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.’”
– Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

I made this portrait of Sitting Bull on my iPad Pro with Adobe Draw in Woodcut style.
Sitting Bull was a Hunkpapa Lakota leader who defeated General George Armstrong Custer during the Battle of Little BigHorn.
He led his people during years of resistance to United States government policies. He was killed by Indian agency police on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation during an attempt to arrest him, at a time when authorities feared that he would join the Ghost Dance movement.
Born: 1831, South Dakota

My wife and I went to the Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center today to honor a fellow Veteran, Madison Palmer Jr. and present him with a portrait I made as a small token of appreciation for his service to our country.
I made this piece for my daughter and son-in-law to remind them of Spokane, Washington! Especially since they live so far away in New Hampshire.
I made this painting on my iPad – the line art with Adobe Draw and the watercolor was done with Adobe Sketch.
I created this portrait for Adobe’s “Pick a Portrait Style” Challenge with Adobe Illustrator Draw on an iPad Pro. Here are the details from Adobe Create: https://create.adobe.com/2019/3/26/pick_a_portrait_styl.html
I dropped off a few pieces of my artwork for the Saturate event at the Chase Gallery (coming up on First Friday – April 5th).
Thanks, Spokane Arts !
Went to the Spokane VA Medical Center to honor a fellow vet (Jerry Hood) by presenting him with a portrait I made of him and ended up being honored by winning the VA art contest at the same time (Best of Show)! Wow!
Thank you, Spokane VA! #HonoringVets #SpokaneVA
I presented this commissioned piece entitled, “Resistance is Futile” to my customer, Gary.
Here he is holding his new artwork. He came up with the concept, I was only too happy to oblige!
Pakal, King of Palenque
This is a digital drawing based on a sarcophagus from a Mayan ruin in Palenque, Chiapas, Mexico.
Meet King Pakal of Palenque, also known as the Mayan Astronaut (based on the fact that the Mayan ruler appears to be at the controls of a spacecraft).
