King Apple Tree

Thursday, February 19th, 2015 | Drawings, Felix, Life-Drawing | No Comments

This is a drawing I did of the old King apple tree, shortly after we moved out to Bainbridge. In summer 2014 it lost a number of large branches, so it no longer has such a beautiful profile — but it’s still a majestic, stately old tree.

Pomme

This is an ink drawing of an apple requested by my sister. The apple in question is a Gravenstein — unquestionably one of the tastiest early summer apples available and superlative for both fresh eating and baking.

Chicken Scratch

I created this illustration as a potential logo for the branding of our farm. We didn’t end up using it, mostly on account of it not being one of our favorite breeds of chicken. Still, I’m pleased with how it turned out.

Bus Vignette

Monday, August 8th, 2011 | Drawings, Felix, Life-Drawing | No Comments

This man was a captive subject as we waited for the bus to start its route. I believe he noticed me drawing him about ten minutes in, and became somewhat more fidgety and nervous subsequently. In keeping with this, you’ll note that his head is much more carefully rendered than his body.

Seated Monk

I started drawing this monk who was drinking tea at the teahouse, but he was so sociable that I had to leave before he sat back down and stopped talking to people.
