ART IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH

"Chief Mardi Gras" by G.W. Drinkwater 
I've been a little distracted lately, working on another blog. This one is an art portfolio, and happens to be of my daddy's artwork.

He's always been rather skilled at sketching and drawing and even a bit of drafting, but when he got sick in 2000 he was encouraged to indulge in some art.

Subject matter ranges from Louisiana wildlife to desert plants to native American themes to golf to helicopters, etc.

Now if I could just get him to write an autobiography. He's got amazing stories!

Cheers,
ally
