Drawing on Location in the Desert


...in Arizona and on the way...Monument Valley, Sedona and Quartzsite...




on a long stretch of highway...


...a bumpy dirt road outside of Sedona,
and snow flurries in January near
Monument Valley...




There's nothing quite like
Monument Valley...

...a tour through neighboring Mystery Valley
that requires a Navajo guide...on New Years Day
--unforgettable!

  1. Hi, I've used your "Road to Quartzsite" drawing as a sleeve for an audio CD onto which I burned some songs for our family holiday this summer. I had done a Google Image search for "black and white drawing road" or something similar. I really like the way you capture the essence of a landscape using what looks like a coarse, 'scribbly' technique. The rectangular drawing came out fine out of my antiquated printer. Don't worry, I won't commercialise my music compilation; I just wanted the CD, for personal use, to be aesthetically pleasing. It's nice that the front and the back form part of a single drawing. Many thanks, and keep on drawing!

  2. Hello Virginia, ive found your drawins while i was loocking for some images for an amateur magazine that i write about my trip hitchhiking across Argentina, the country that i am from.

    I already used one of them on a printed paper that has only one sheet, something very amateur.

    Now i want to start a blog to upload the new numbers of my ¨magazine¨ and i want to use another one, the landscape is very similar to the places ive been... i hope u dont have any problem whit it, and i really like your drawings..
