Another quiet warmish January day to rest my tongue and exercise my mind. I've been studying the items up for auction at a certain site which are all under one classification: ART. It is a study in 'art' going back around 100 years, really. You'd be surprised what turns up. Photos from the Civil War era. Landscape oils from around that time to present. Lots of clown paintings. I never knew there were so many. Almost anything in the 3D line that's half-way well done gets gobbled up. Any nude that's even remotely well executed from classical to abstract. Ditto. Anyway, this research could have inspired this piece to some degree. This is a 9 by 6 inches gel pen drawing with color pencil on medium bond acid-free paper. It's what Original Jones Art drew without any preliminary quick sketch this evening just to keep himself entertained and occupied here in northwest Austin, Texas.
