Table Doodle
This is a quick doodle I did on the paper table cloth ( isn’t that a contradiction - paper cloth ) at Pizza Rock while celebrating my daughter’s birthday. I always wonder if someone keeps these or if they throw them out without looking. One will never know.

An Experiment with Water, Rock and Tree
Not sure how I feel about this one. A rough sketch attempting to put a waterfall and tree together. I do not really like how it looks on the left side of the tree. I may put some additional work into it to see if I can make it work. Tough to correct ink.
