An illustration from the continuing series of 2016 U.S. Presidential Candidates. John Kasich, another Republican candidate for U.S. President in 2016, he is currently the Governor of Ohio. Kasich served as the Chairman of the U.S. House Budget Committee and has 18 years of National Security experience as a member of the U.S. House Armed Services Committee. The Iowa Caucus is coming up soon. Will this narrow the field a little more?

Vail, Colorado Illustration
Pen and Ink with Watercolor

I’m finally going back to finish these drawings that I started while in Vail, Colorado last year. I spent the mornings (before getting out to ski) drinking coffee and drawing the buildings in one of the squares. I have another that I want to finish as well. I’m no sure what this building is called. I’ll track that down and add it to the post. Anyone know this building?
