There comes a point in one's life where it's preferable to look back than look ahead. There are various and sundry reasons for this. Maybe it's because the future isn't what it used to be. This is another envelope drawing. I used the security pattern on the inside of the envelope. It measures 7.25 by 2.75 inches and was drawn using black and white gel pen and charcoal pencil. Original Jones Art still looking ahead in northwest Austin, Texas.

I really like the effect the envelope pattern has on your work , it works so well , like meant to be. Hope your Monday is clipping along nicely Charles : )

Artist Reply: Well, so far the sun is out, the birds are singing and the cars are passing by a bit too fast. So a pretty decent day, all things considered, Dave. :)

I note you covering the neutral zones. Looks great overall,

Artist Reply: I thought for something on a throwaway piece of paper, it had a certain quality that made the grade, Nikolay. PS: I like your work and you should know this. It stands out and that isn't easy to accomplish unless you know what you're doing. Hope all is good for you and yours. :).
