New drawing Hobby Horse #2

As I finished this drawing I wondered about the mounting spring and whether it is needed in the drawings. All of my subjects are from parks, and they are all mounted the same way. I guess only time will tell whether I leave it in the future drawings.

More ATC ACEO woodcut prints

I have started getting a jump on "The Day of the Dead" artwork with some new ACEO (art cards, editions, originals) ATC (art trading cards) sized relief prints as the one print I have is sold out. My concept on this series is each print has a black and white version with and edition size of 20 and a multi-color version with an edition size of ~10. So here is the first Black and White print, more to follow. - John Terwilliger

First drawing in a new series - Hobby Horses

I am embarking on a new series of drawings of Hobby Horses as found in city parks. So far I have found that it seems all the parks have different themes of Hobby Horse from horses to airplanes to dinosaurs. This should prove to be a light and fun series. I will, of course, continue to draw treetops (ten on view June-July 2008 in Rochester) shadows and all manner of other subjects. Enjoy.
