This symbolizes for me how my doodling art style emerged from my mother's, hers being straight line based and mine being curvy

This is a collage of photos of fall foliage.

I'm not sure why I think this looks like corduroy, but that's what comes to mind for me

Abstract gradient mesh with spring flower colors. I did this in early March. It's still cold. It's been a cold winter. That kind of inspired this.

Seasonal Greeting

An abstracted creche scene, but also symbolizing how after the Solstice there is a new solar year

I drew this while listening to a streamed concert by Mat & Savanna Shaw. When I first posted it on social media, I dedicated it to them. In posting it here, I've removed the dedication, because maybe not everyone is a Mat & Savanna Shaw fan. Still I consider it a sort of abstract picture of their music -- much quieter & more harmonious than my usual drawing. The phrase <<à l'invers>> means "backwards" in French.

Gold on black drawing. Abstract, with arrows & curved shapes

Silver curved shapes with black, orange, green. blue, and red accents

I was playing with the mesh tool of Adobe Illustrator and came up with this. The name is fanciful. It's really abstract.

Pink, green, and brown flower fragments falling from a tree in spring -- actually it's just random, but that's my Rorschach reading of it. I took a line out of Brahms's German requiem that this reminded me of.

Overlapping cartoon shapes

Holiday Greeting for the Summer Solstice

Abstract shapes and colors in a cascade

Colorful swoosh like shapes sailing on a windy sea

Swirls, teardrops, diamond

A monochrome creation with stripes, swirls, drops, and other shapes

This was originally a photograph of a shiny artwork on curly paper and I had to do a lot of photoshop to make it look flat. This was my second try at this. The original has faded, so that a lot of the colors are gone, so I can't rephotograph it.

Whirlpool of outflowing spirals

Earth tones, but superposed to look like the sun with shiny swooshes

Glowing stars and nebulae

So this is a comparison version, with the one that I uploaded before that retained the background

A lot of my art is hand drawn on paper. Tee public has been suggesting that I remove the images of the paper from between the shapes before I unload the art. I'm finding that this process is pretty time consuming, so I'm trying to upload one with the image of the paper still there. It will be interesting to see how it works.

Hand drawn rectangles in bright colors -- overlapping each other

First I drew the triangle based sunburst. Then I started coloring the background black. Then I decided I didn't like that color, so I left it partially in shadow

This started out as abstract art, but, after I drew it, I decided it looked like swans. Perhaps you'll see something different.

Wildly flowing shapes struggle for control

Gold and blue spirals with spikes

Spirals on earthtone gradient background

This was an experiment with using the mesh tool in Illustrator

I'm mostly interested in drawing curves, but sometimes I put in other shapes. Here there are triangles overflowing into curves. The original was in ultra fine Sharpie

This started out as a bunch of abstract curvy shapes, but afterwards I decided it looked like a snap dragon flower.
