Hi! I am a 56 years old and was in an accident in 1999 and because of a closed head injury, I began to lose my sight. Within 6 months, I was 20/400 in one eye and just finger vision in the other. I also ended up with seizures and other medical problems as PTSD, MS, nerve damage in shoulders and arms and neck injuries of C-5 and 6. Most of my drawings take many hours for me to do as they are done with magnifiers having to remember what things looked like. In addition, over the last few years, I have had to learn many different ways to draw, as numbering my pencils with a dot code and then having a color sheet, so I know what I am using. In addition, some of my drawings are done in the colors that I see and others are done with me remembering the color. Almost all of the art work is framed and some of those in antique frames. However, for the most part, I draw in color pencil, mixing in some water colors with maybe some chalk and ink. Nevertheless, in the last few years I have found an enjoyment in Pen & Ink and doing sketches of people, buildings and animals. I find great enjoyment out of drawing birds and other animals and landscapes with lots of flowers. My wife and I have done some jewelry and hope to get into doing more very soon, as well as we can do whatever graphic design you might need

Hi! I am a 56 years old and was in an accident in 1999

and because of a closed head injury, I began to lose my

sight.

Within 6 months, I was 20/400 in

one eye and just finger vision in the other. I also ended

up with seizures and other medical problems as PTSD, MS,

nerve damage in shoulders and arms and neck

injuries of C-5 and 6.

Most of my drawings take many hours for me to do as they are done with magnifiers

having to remember what things looked like. In addition, over the last few years, I

have had to learn many different ways to draw, as numbering my pencils with a dot

code and then having a color sheet, so I know what I am using. In addition, some of

my drawings are done in the colors that I see and others are done with me

remembering the color. Almost all of the art work is framed and some of those in

antique frames. However, for the most part, I draw in color pencil, mixing in some

water colors with maybe some chalk and ink. Nevertheless, in the last few years I

have found an enjoyment in Pen & Ink and doing sketches of people, buildings and

animals. I find great enjoyment out of drawing birds and other animals and

landscapes with lots of flowers.

My wife and I have done some jewelry and hope to get into doing more very soon,

as well as we can do whatever graphic design you might need from logos, business

cards, to personal cards as birthday and so on. Lately, I have been doing some

jewelry with my wife and some graphic design work from cards to logos.

A Special Message

to all my friends

I know that we are all in hard times at this moment and

this is why I am putting together this little booklet. First,

I want to apologize for the pictures, as I hope to take

better ones later. However, because of financial needs,

I have no choice but to put my ART work up for sale.

Also, in doing this, I am just going to ask that if you

would like something to e-mail me and tell me what you

would pay, no reasonable offer will be turned away.

Also, I have jewelry, and others items upon request and

I can draw something for you, anything, in sketch, pen

and ink, or pencil color. Thank you and keep us in your

prayers

Old Town

Pen & Ink, this one has been in “Insight” a Art Show at the San FranciscoArts Commission Gallery in City Hall in 2006 and 2007 and was also presented on the worldwide media show ARTSLAM in 2008, 2009 & 2010.It is framed in a Black wood frame with a red type wood mat , then a green mat, the 14 by 17 the picture is 9 ½ by 11 ½.

Pen and Ink of a Blue jay – the photo makes the paper look wrong it is on

very white paper and is not framed, it is 11 x 14

Page 22: Artsale1 powerpointshow

Working on, maybe you have some ideas on what to do with it. It is four different pictures of the same items, in charcoal, pen& ink,

color pencil and then just graphic .I was hoping to frame them all in one frame.

They have been on the worldwide media show ARTSLAM in 2010.

Each picture would be 9 x 12 , so if they were in one frame it would have to be a least 24 X 30.See next page for individual pictures

Be the first to have these special items:

“A Burning Question” is based on the Song,” Dark Horse”, by John Fischer, after listening to this song, I wrote the story and it has been added to each time it is told. Later, I found out that Mr.

Fisher has a book about this also.As I stated in the forward this story can be changed

from a religious story to a story on predators or race, or even gangs.

However the key to this all, is the true whiteness, comes from accepting

and following the Lord Jesus Christ

his own drawings in the 28 page book, this is for all ages.=========================================
