A New Home (continued)


Charcoal on paper-22" x 30"

Here are few more drawings that I've been doing of our new house. Not much to say about these...just trying to keep my eyes and hand active while I'm taking a break from painting. My time has been more limited this summer due to the adjustment from our move and the kids being out of school. I find myself dealing with the annoyances of a new home and a big move: researching termite bonds, buying a second car, numerous visits to the DMV, etc. I did get a great, out of print monograph on Fairfield Porter by John Spike, which I've been pouring over almost every night. (which is probably very obvious from these drawings) I miss the paint but am having fun with these....enjoy!
