 Nate Dray at North Water Street Gallery

 

So here's a thing. Grateful to Jeff Ingram of the North Water Street Gallery in Kent, Oh. for setting this up. Jeff was actually the first person to show one of my pictures in a gallery outside of a school event way back in 1999...or was it 1997? Either way, great guy who runs an excellent community arts organization called Standing Rock Cultural Arts.

"Elkton Bridgehead"

14" x 12"

watercolor on paper

This title is a misnomer. The term "bridgehead" implies strategic significance and that's just simply untrue in this case. :)

An Old Red Barn

"Under Hellbender Bluff"
12 x 16 inches, Watercolor

 Album Cover color rough.

Soon after doing this drawing, I lost it. Disappeared. Months later it surfaced. Then it sat stretched on a board 3/4 of the way finished for a year or so...

This is a color rough for the back cover art on the band ALBUM's album "Majestic Silvereye."

"Carb Complex"

“Green Wave Break over Mike Lusk’s Lock (no, his kid isn’t buried in it)”

“Green Wave Break over Mike Lusk’s Lock (no, his kid isn’t buried in it)”

Lusk was an English engineer who built beautiful locks. Contracted for a couple in the 1830s for the Sandy and Beaver Canal. There are sad stories about how this work in the howling Ohio wilderness adversely affected his life and family.

Did some drawing for this year's Yo-Ice...

Album's new album "Majestic Silvereye" was long in the making. It's amazing thrash-rock-metal-pop (whew!). Getting great reviews and— to totally use a grand cliche— an instant classic.

Get it on itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/majestic-silvereye/id1036318347

Check it out on google play: https://play.google.com/store/music/album/ALBUM_Majestic_SilverEye?id=Brf5dsgmw3mrpyi4wrcu53i53ii

Recorded over several months at Mindrocket Recording Studio in West Middlesex, PA— the album is an epic technicolor guitar saga.

I did the artwork. It was an honor. :)
