Sea Turtle



This week's illustration friday topic: Aging.

I chose sea turtles to represent aging because they are so cool when they get old. They're grizzled and mellow and BIG. These suckers can get as large as 400 pounds in their later years, but they're still as graceful as can be in the water. Damn that's cool. Plus, sea turtles have been around since the time of the dinosaurs, which is pretty cool too.

Arizona Sky




Here it is -- my first Adobe Illustrator pic. It ain't the fanciest thing in the world, but I'm happy with it. :)

San Francisco Street




This week's illustration friday topic: Metropolitan.

I'm cheating this week. This is a pic from way back in 1998 when I actually lived in a big city. I used to love the way the street car wires looked like lattice work framed against the sky.

Golf



This week's illustration friday topic: Sport.

My husband has managed to turn me into a golf nut. I never thought it would happen, but the combination of beautiful scenery and not-so-strenuous exercise has me hooked. It's a great way to get outside without doing something awful like jogging.
