The Heart Still Belongs to You
Another large-ish piece on cardboard, done early in the morning. I deliberately under-drew this one, as it seemed best kept simple. The title presented itself to me as I worked—it seemed to fit the piece.

To Touch the Face of God
I've started working on a larger scale on cardboard (well, 48" x 36" anyway, which is quite large). I'm not sure if this is finished (it could be), or a study for a more developed piece...we'll see...
