gino

i'm trying to learn how to use watercolors. it's been so much fun. here's one of my first attempts - not the most interesting subject.
i went skating on sunday at the local high school... my legs were killing me.

school days

these are some assignments from college - cross hatch, stipple, and graphite.

kid

playground

some more drawings from the zoo. the kids' play area is a great place to sketch.

this dad was soooo tired... maybe because i didn't draw him a big enough torso for his lungs.


i felt sorry for this poor girl. her dad seriously took like 5 minutes to take one photo.

chimps

i went to the zoo last friday. here are some chimps as proof.

the bottom one on this page looks like a gorilla/orangutan hybrid. oh well.
