It consists of a man walking beneath the road, connected to what seems to be a silhouetted cityscape. This creation was an assignment from my drawing class, and I was inspired to design this piece from a YouTube video teaching me about one-point perspective. The theme of this piece would be aimlessness, having no clear direction in life.

I decided to try doing a 3D drawing for the first time because it is more lifelike. I want people to feel as though they can pull it off the paper.

My skills are especially important. When the drawing is almost finished, I start using cross hatching. I need to like a short line. Then I will be able to see all the details.

A statue of a unicorn which was brass. I had a harsh shading technique that made shapes more distinct! The unicorn has come to represent uniqueness and rarity and is my personal logo.

My motivation to draw this flower was from Georgia O'Keefe and my inspiration was from my mother. I always love drawing flowers because they are so warm and they soothe my soul.

Charcoal on Water Color Paper
The work was completed in 1988, during a summer trip to various locations in NJ and NYC. It was inspired by looking at life as a journey. The black charcoal describes the artist's emotions of uncertainty, but one of positive energy. The work seeks to describe the fullness and unexpected character of a landscape, while capturing an emotional experience life 's fullness.

My Artwork is called "InkCity". It captures a modern yet traditional city. Much like the basis of my art styles. Using the traditional landscaping idea, with a modern dark side. Along with gradient shadowing to give an effect of Good and Evil. Which is what you can find in a city full of danger yet enchantment.

Janis Joplin was my favorite singer since I was 14 years old in 1980. It wasn't about the music. We connected on a gut level. In fact, the first time I heard her music on the radio, I didn't think she was that great. It was only after I heard her biography on a local FM station that I realized we were kindred spirits. Loners, artists, rejects, intellectuals, rebels. After that, I collected every record album, poster, and book about Janis Joplin that I could find. This is a drawing of one of her album covers.

The Stradun, Dubrovnik, Croatia is a pencil drawing based on a photograph taken by Katie’s cousin in beautiful Dubrovnik, Croatia. A few years later, Katie was very excited to have the chance to visit the location of this photograph while vacationing in the country from which her grandparents immigrated.

Artist was given the task to focus on one individual body part, the hand. The artist used charcoal as a base and oil pastels to highlight. Artist uses impressionism as the preferred style of drawing. Lines are not strong, however the idea of impressionism is so that the artist captures the image of an object as someone would see it if they just caught a glimpse of it. The human hand is made up of so many colors, the use of blues and purples is identified in this piece.

I drew my friend Barbara! First a light hand was used to sketch out the facial features, glasses, and I inked over the end result.

I chose to draw this picture for no particular reason. I was in the mood for innocence. Nothing could be more innocent than building blocks, a rag doll, a teddy bear, a child's drawing, etc.

I drew this picture several days after Pope John Paul II died. I respected and admired him very much, and this way my way of paying tribute to him. I sketched the drawing upside down, a technique I learned in High School but rarely, if ever, applied to my other pieces. It is one of only two pieces I have ever had professionally framed.

This political cartoon is a re-imagination of Uncle Sam portrayed as The Joker from The Dark Knight movie and Batman Comics. I chose this representation to show how our politicians have become agents of chaos with they way they run our country. So many of their actions make no sense at all and can only be explained as madness. Items in the background all represent things that our nation use to believe in and represent while our politicians weather them away. There are also key items that show how our leaders decisions have effected not just the American public, but the entire world. I consider myself and patriot and while this image may be upsetting I believe it is a valid representation of what we have allowed our nation to become. I consider myself a patriot and eagerly look forward to a stronger nation that has a lot less madness and a lot more reason.

My younger brother challenged me one day to get out of my comfort zone and tackle something out of my normal preferred genre. And I decided to illustrate something to do with pirates. This drawing was done with a .5 mechanical pencil, on Bristol board.
