Self-Portrait (repost)

I've posted this photo before , but it seemed a nice one to end with. I've come to the end of the material that I want to share he...

In memory of Dick Hibbert (1933-2010), I am posting selections from his art. He painted in oil, was an avid photographer, did watercolors, and sketched in pencil, ink, and charcoal.   You can send me email by addressing it to my first name at mydruthers.com. --Chris

Cupola, Tver Russia (sketch)

A Cupola from Tver, Russia.  That city has a lot of buildings with cupolas, and I couldn't find this one.  Maybe not being able to type in cyrillic was part of it.  Drawn during the trip to Russia in August 1995.

Fall hillside, Japan

Japanese hillside in fall.  Most of the woods in Japan were evergreen, with a scattering of deciduous trees, so there wasn't much in the way of fall colors.  This photo was probably taken in the late '60s.
