Autumn 2020, A Work Of Art

Published on by LMProckLeave a comment

Autumn always amazes me with the colors outside & the comfortable temperatures. Inspired by the photos and creating drawings is my favorite thing to do. With the colors at their peak, I figured I’d better grab some snapshots before the leaves fall off the trees.

Walking around the block and finding the unique leaf on the ground is another thing that inspires me. Walking around the block with Ginger (my dog) is another thing I like to do. The crispy air, crunching leaves, and no humidity. Nature is a work of art all around, here’s autumn. Hope you enjoy the photos I’ve taken.

A Trip Down Memory Lane With Tablet Drawings

Published on by LMProckLeave a comment

​Ever since this talent I have had surfaced years later, I’ve been working hard with my tablet and sketch book. Now after discovering that I can draw, I figured it was time that I did my own logo for business cards and other things. I’d like to welcome you to my new logo for LMProck. It’s my version of a bohemian daisy at midnight. Made 2years ago. 

Experimenting With Resin

Published on by LMProckLeave a comment

Looking for new things to try, I bought resin about a month ago with molds. Like anything, I put it off to the side and decided to work on my sketches and drawings.

Teal Resin Ring.

Earlier this week, I finally decided to go for it and try it out. Since yesterday (Saturday September 5th, 2020), I decided to make some rings with this slightly stinky, beautiful material. These are just a few of the rings I modeled on my finger to show. The following rings I’m showing here are made with a white resin finish, sparkle, and ink.

When’s The Last Time?

Published on by LMProckLeave a comment

For the last few months with the COVID-19 pandemic, I’ve been asking myself these questions. It’s been a long hall for everyone that’s known someone who’s had this or worse yet..

These are the questions I’ve been asking myself.

When’s the last time you were able to go out to a restaurant, eat a meal, and not have to do takeout?

When’s the last time you were able to go anywhere without having to practice social distancing & wear a mask every where you go?

When’s the last time parents were able to send their kids to school and not have to worry about their kids getting sick?

When’s the last time kids were able to go to school and sit in a classroom with a teacher/mentor & not have to learn at home with a computer?

When’s the last time kids were able to get together with friends and not have to talk on the phone, facetime, facebook messenger?

When’s the last time you were able to travel on the thruway and pay cash to a real person and not have a photo of your driver’s license taken then receive a bill in the mail?

Hope families and friends around the world are safe with this COVID-19 and a vaccine is on the way!

Camping On The Beach In My Heart

Published on by LMProck1 Comment

Thinking about lots of things, missing lots of things in my life after turning 42 on Tuesday, there’s one thing I truly miss and that’s camping. If there’s one kind of camping I’ve always wanted to do is camping on the beach. Putting a tent on the beach in front of the water with a small bonfire is what’s in my heart.
