Navigator of the Dimensional Seas
Update (May 5, 2013) — here is an edited version of the original image (below):
The Ancient Navigator, 2013, brush & ink on paper, 24" x 19".
This is another quite large drawing from this new series I'm working on (that doesn't particularly have a name or theme). This one relates to the recent Cosmic Voyager/Traveler pieces, and I may do another version, as I'm not sure I'm happy with this one.

Elizabeth's Dragon
My daughter, Elizabeth, has been working on this drawing of a dragon for a while now (she's 14 & busy with her other schoolwork, being a teenager, etc.) -- I thought it was worthwhile uploading here as she has perhaps inherited some drawing ability from me...or maybe she just got it on her own; I try not to influence my children too much...
