Automobiles reflect our culture. There are good cars and bad cars. This is a good one.

Batmobile
Starship One
Have you ever dreamed of building your own spacecraft? I’ll bet you have. Although this version lacks the streamlined stainless steel construction and crew abort module, the ride would be one to remember. Powered by Bottle Rockets. (Ink and Markers)
This is an illustration created for childrens’ rooms.
Cottage by the Sea
Have you ever wanted to live in a cottage by the sea? The sound of the surf and cries of the seagulls speak of a quiet solitude ideal for reading or writing. Maybe it’s a retreat for the summer months, or a beloved year-round residence. Regardless, it is a place for deep contemplation and enlightenment. (Ink and Markers)
Space Ship 2
After travelling for months, a navigational error has thrown this poor soul off course. When she manages to land on a desolate, rocky world, she stops to pray to the universe for directions. Will she find her way home, and if she does – will it still be there?
This is part of a set of space ships created with cut-paper resembling rock and steel, and a touch of markers.

Tree Swing
Tomorrow is the first day of Spring. I thought this piece was appropriate for creating the proper frame of mind. After snow and freezing rain and frigid temperatures, I am really looking forward to t-shirt weather. (Ink and Markers)
Bird in Flight
A modern art style cut paper creation. My intent was a different take on an old subject. Did I succeed?

Space Cat
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
My selection for today has nothing to do with the Irish holiday, but it’s green.
For thousands of years cats have befriended us. Because of our special bond, I see no reason they won’t follow us into space. Here is a computer generated graphic of a possible home base for a cat aboard a space ship. It is from here the cat will control the mouse population. 🙂
Homecoming
To travel in space is, for the most part, boring. If the ship is operating properly, life consists of checklists and food. Similar to prison, the highlight of the day is mealtime. To make matters worse, space travel is time consuming – in more than one way. It is possible to take a six month journey and return home many years later. Who says time travel is not possible?
This acrylic painting asks the question: Do you even want to return home?
The Old West
Today’s post sticks to the Western theme. A *few years ago ( Art class in college), I created this rendition of a typical western town. Its inspiration comes from reading too many Western paperbacks.
Death Star
I created this years ago when Star Wars was big. It is an ink drawing that has been reversed. This death machine has the same fatal flaw as the original. As they say in the movie, “Remain on target.”
