From my 1970s undergrad art portfolio archives: black ballpoint pen drawing of an Utah cow skull. I doubt my current drawing skills can match this. Bit of a shocker to realize this drawing is over 50 years old.

Charlie wore his protester garb during the red rural St.George, Utah ‘Hands Off!’ protest. He was a big hit with his Dogs Against Doge sign. Lots of people photographed him. Including two trump supporting teens who had their photo taken WITH Charlie. Lol.

Charlie is highly skilled at side eye. Also, this is the first time in his young life that a dog toy has remained intact. So far.

Here is my hand colored lino-cut print of the endangered Mojave Desert Tortoise. This is my art expression, not an accurate science illustration. 🎨

Hiking along a desert canyon trail near a wash and this upright slab of sandstone stopped me in my tracks. Not seen anything like it before. Looked like beautiful fabric not stone!
