This second one was inspired by the lyrics of the song Dire Wolf. "I sat down to my supper, it was a bottle of red whiskey" and then latter in the song "I cut the deck to the queen of spades but the cards were all the same"
This third one was inspired from the lyric in the Grateful Dead song called Scarlet Begonias, "Everyone was playing in the Heart Of Gold Band".
At some point I did this pen and ink drawing of the Beatles. I really don't remember the motivation. I ended up giving it to a friend as a gift. Not a great photo of the drawing but it's all I have. This next one I used as a T-shirt design. It is a play on the song called Iko-Iko that is a mardi gras song that the Grateful Dead often played. So I incorporated the Rick Griffin eye ball imagery and made it Eye-Ko instead of Iko, and turned the members of the band into walking eyes.
Here are a series of stylized Arizona landscapes. I did them thinking I would make a calender or post cards, but instead just framed them and put them on the walls of my home. They go pretty well with the theme of this blog. This first one is of the Petrified Forest.
I did these using a mix of media including air brush and water color painting. This second one is a view from along Schnebly Hill Road in Sedona.
The borders around them of course styled after some Native American art designs. This next one is of course the Grand Canyon.
This next one is a Sonora Desert scene from out near Roosevelt Lake area of Arizona.
And this last one is of one of the ruins out at Waputki National Monument.

These came out excellent. Still, my favorite is the drawing of Garcia. There's just something about it.
