Bart Starr 1934-2019

This was a drawing of Bart Starr of the Green Bay Packers.  I did it in when I was in school many years ago.  He was one of the greatest quarterbacks of his time.  I post it today (May 26, 2019) to honor him because he passed away today.

Colt Single-Action Army Revolver

My inspiration for this project came from watching a 60 Minutes segment on Mark Bradford, a highly sought after artist who makes paper collages, some of which sell for millions of dollars.  A few of the works they showed are huge and cover entire walls.  It was very interesting.  This effort on my part is a MUCH scaled down and simplified  version.  It was interesting to work with a new and different medium.

Deacon Jones

I am disappointed with how this one turned out.  It looks like a football player, but it does not look like Deacon Jones.  I can not tell why or how I missed capturing his likeness.  When I was a kid, David Deacon Jones was my favorite L.A. Rams football player.  He played Left Defensive End and was a member of the Ram's "Fearsome Foursome".  Below the picture in the early stages, and at the bottom is the photo I used as a model.
