grandpa's T-38 at Randolph AFB

This is a painting I made as a Christmas gift for my children's Grandpa, Tsgt. Frank Orsagh, who was an aircraft mechanic.  He made sure these beauties flew safely in the air by working on them at Randolph Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas until he retired in August 2002.

Arid Landscape

An abstract landscape which was based on my memories of lands I've walked on. The ground  has become hard and compressed from the lack of rain.

farmland and oak clusters

here is a triptych of a landscape, I like to display them in this way.

Mi Papa (my Father)

I found this drawing of my dad in a pile of old work. At the time I drew it  I didn't like it but,  now I think is not too bad. I have so much trouble drawing family members. I'm never satisfied.

Four figs

Figs must be one of my favorite fruits, they remind me of my childhood. We would visit an old man in a village high in the mountains; a town called San Jose.  Thats where I first  tasted this delicious fruit.
