A bit of "Art"

Okay, I'm sorry I haven't been blogging in a week. I've been out trying to thaw out a grave...haha. Anyway, I noticed a certain person was getting a bit impatient to see updated blogs and since I haven't really had much time lately to give an update, thought I would give you something to look at while you wait... Sort of, "hold music" for a blog. Here's a few sketches of mine.... I tried scanning all of them in, but most, I draw on large paper which won't fit on my scanner, so, once I take a picture of them, I'll blog them as well... In the first pic, you will see Kermit the Frog sitting on a stool. This inspiration came to me when I was "deathly" ill and lying on the couch a few weeks back... He is on the cover of a book of Kim's, I saw it and thought I'd draw it. He's in my sketch book so the scan is not very good.

The next was a drawing by request. My lovely wife wanted a drawing of an eye. Though I thought it was a bit of a different request, I did it. She found an Eye and I drew it. It is now awaiting a frame for hanging in the apartment so it can freak out all who visit.

The last one is of one of my baseball icons, it is of Nolan Ryan as he waved to the crowd after his 7th No-Hitter, which is quite an accomplishment for those who don't know baseball. One for those who do know baseball as well:) It was one of my more simple works seeing as I just clicked

and pasted it from another website. That's right, I didn't draw it but I needed something else. Two drawings just seemed so inadequate. Hope you all enjoy!

You mentioned that Sis Kim found an eye? Found an Eye? What does that mean, found an eye? Now in your line of work, and Sis Kim's, where would you just find an eye?
