I have posted alot of classics here on this site, to the best of my knowledge I have never posted this one, mainly because is was too easy. Mark Twain has long been one of my favorite authors and satirists.  He has also been one of my favorite historical figures as his commentary is still as sharp today as it was in the 1800s. Someday I will post " Tom Sawyer, " but today is " Huckleberry Finn " which has long been one of my all time favorites.  Cheers, and keep on creating!

A while back I decided to try my hand at creating art based on a real world location. This is what I came up with. I drew the out line, started to fill and shade it- I didn't like the way it looked so I set it aside. Then a couple of months ago I came back to it and decided it was time to finish, regardless of how it looked. In the end I think it turned out very nice. I have noticed that most of the ones that I don't like really aren't as bad as I think. If I force myself to finish, I actually become quite fond of them after the struggle of finishing them. This is one of those pictures. I won't post the original because it's owned by someone else, but you can find it online if you google "Moulton's Barn". Cheers, and keep on creating!

So, with my posts, and time, growing thinner as we enter into the "decorative" seasons- yes I will be on rooftops setting up decorations soon... I thought I would schedule my blog time for early in the mornings and try and get some posts out before my house comes alive. Not all of these will be posted in the gallery because most of them are purposed elsewhere, but I will be posting them here on the site. This one is called "The House of Kerinth". I hope you enjoy it... Cheers, and keep on creating!
