Type, Cats, and Coffee
Fall is here. The time has come to put away the summer clothes and bring out the fall gear. It is also a reminder that time passes and as it is a new beginning, it is a perfect time to brew a cup and have a reset.

The Days Are Long, The Years Are Short
It has been a while. The year so far seems to have gone very quickly for me. It is time to regroup and reset my creative side. See this as an invite for you to do the same.

The Fan
The WNBA (Woman's National Basketball Asssociation) is 28 years old this season. I have been a fan for 20 of them. I've experienced the small crowds, and trying to find any news about the sport was difficult. The interest has been growing, but this year it has exploded. I'm so happy more people get to discover the sport. Welcome to the "W".
This drawing is dedicated to a fan I have never seen at the Washington Mystics games, but I hear you brother.

Blink And It Is Gone
I take a quick glance and before I can say "How Beautiful", it is gone. I should have appreciated that very moment.

Recognized
I hardly ever go to the postal office, but I needed stamps. Recognizing him gave me a chill. That was uncle Tony.

Looking at the New Year
A new year brings many possibilities. When I was a kid, I would get so excited about the possible new movies, books, and music I would get to experience in the coming year. I hope you have some sense of excitement for the possible magic that you will be a catalyst to in this coming year. Welcome to January.

The Wrong Day
She drove all night to get here for this important reunion. As the hours passed and she continued to wait, she realized she missed the meeting by five days.
I originally drew this in 2012 but I have recently been revisiting some of my old drawings and adding context to the images. Drawn on my sketchbook and finished on my computer.
