I simply can’t stay away from Digital Doodle Abstracts forever. I gotta flush them from my mind in order for other stuff to take root. Life would be a more interesting journey if we could actually see snowballs like this.🤣 Continue reading DD92 – A Psychedelic Snowball
I became familiar with Van Gogh in my pre-teen years and have had his painting “Starry Night” on my walls ever since. There is just something about the vivid colors and distorted forms that drew me in. Continue reading Post-Impressionism

I am learning everyday now just what simplicity is all about. For some reason I have been attracted to that word all my life. In fact I have numerous placards around my RetCom apartment as I write these words. Continue reading Simplicity – Getting to the Essence of what you see.
I’m not sure just when I did this line art drawing. I think it was in early 2025. It took several hours to complete. After it was done I guess I let it fall through the cracks so to speak. Or maybe it was just lying in the embers in the back of my mind waiting to get resurrected. Continue reading LA2 – 1st Serious Attempt
In my youth I can remember when everything was out of focus. Dad barely made enough to put food on the table an a roof over our head. Eyeglasses were simple a luxury that we just couldn’t afford. Continue reading DD83 – Out Of Focus
This one is kinda like a self-portrait of my brain and how it works. The long blue line is a thought going down into water and then the rainbow of a dozen different thoughts splashes out from that. I like … Continue reading DD76 – A Rainbow Bath

Some people think that life goes in a straight line from birth to death, but I kinda think it is much more complicated than that. It is made up of twists, turns, and tangents of various flavors. That is what … Continue reading DD65 – Life’s Paths

Being deaf for 35 years now, I usually don’t pay much attention to musical presentations here at my RetCom (retirement community). But this last April there was one that I attended. It was an African Drums Presentation. Drums are one … Continue reading MME58 – RetCom Drums
Recently, I have needed an escape place from my regular routine. It is there that I generated this digital doodle. I know I am in my RetCom apartment probably 98% of the week. That’s fine most of the time. LOMO (life On My Own) is where I generally want to be. But.. Continue reading DD59 – Flying Away, Plain & Simple
In the last 15 years I have probably been to at least 40 museums. Some were locals that were usually in a once abandoned building. Others were the million dollar version, where each room proudly displayed the name of a … Continue reading MME10 – Creative Lighting
I went deaf before closed captions were available, so when I watched TV, I used to make up my own story of what I was watching. Of course I was always wrong. In that vein, I will let you make … Continue reading DD55 – California Sunset
For those of you who know “line art” you will certainly tell me this is not that. Yes, I admit that I broke many rules in making the image above. But who am I if not a “rules breaker”? I … Continue reading DD53 – Aflight
This is my rendition of what allergies are today. It just seems like many more kids today have serious allergies than they did in my youth. Tongue-in-cheek I kinda specuate that is because they because kids today live in a much more sterile environment that we did. Continue reading DD44 – Allergies…

This JustArtsy post just leaped out of my mind the other day. I didn’t even intend to make it. But when it was done, I realized that it encapsulates what I was feeling at the moment. So, you could say … Continue reading DD22 – Self Portrait- Confused

Everyone needs some peaceful days when nothing much happens. Continue reading DD18 – A Peaceful Sunday
I have a portfolio of 35 State House complexes across the U.S. This one is from Des Moines, Iowa. I must admit that for the most part, one state house looks mostly like the next. Most are lavish buildings prompted … Continue reading MME37 – Iowa State House…
I could subtitle this abstract doodle “My Mind At Rest.” It’s a state of mind I experience when I am working on my 1,000-piece picture puzzles. My mind is never blank, but this is about as close as it gets.😆 Continue reading DD35 – Peace
In my travels through hundreds of museums, I have discovered that I have an affinity for shadows. I just love how this one bird sculpture becomes several just through lighting. Continue reading MME10 – Bird(s) Aflight

The source photo for this image was taken during our month long trip to Canada in 2011. We in the U.S. call them cattails. To Canadians they are just reeds. But either way, I think the artsification turned out beautiful. … Continue reading MME36 – Artsified Reeds
