Thinking of Miyazaki….

  I was watching the Miyazaki movie THE BOY AND THE HERON recently, and it inspired me to draw this guy. The scary old man hiding inside the heron disguise. I’ll get away from drawing guys in yellow shirts soon, but this is what’s been coming up lately. So there you go….

Coreopsis, and Roses and Wildflowers

By in brush pen, collaboration, color, digital, heads, machines, men, paintings, self-promotion, watercolor, watercolour, women, writing

So much scary stuff in the world today! Sometimes it feels like we’re living in a post-apocalyptic science fiction story. Well, one of the things I’ve been doing to help deal with that feeling has been doing work for the online journals of a few of my friends down south. Please visit the link below […]

Parc Mederic Martin Family

By in black and white, children, men, montreal, parks, pencil, ruttan's place, self-promotion, sketches, women

This family was very cute, and ignored me as I sat with my sketchbook and non-alcohol beer in an Adirondack chair that happened to be facing the big swinging bench outside the playground, and by the bike path and tennis courts. I had been visiting my friend in the Rosemont-Maisonneuve hospital, and was walking back […]

Red Gothic Guy in Gouache

By in Gouache, heads, men, paintings, ruttan's place, sketches, watercolour

I’m happy that this is posting, because I’m not too thrilled with my digital painting program at the moment. Maybe it’s calmed down now, and recognizes me. I also put my thumb drive in the pocket of my fuzzy sweater, because I wanted to print something at the library. But the library printer only prints […]

Sketchbooks and word balloons

By in color, Coloured Pencils, comics, digital, heads, men, ruttan's place, sketches, watercolor, watercolour

Not totally sure about the angry guy face, but that’s what’s happening at the moment in my sketchbooks. The person in the snow suit was real. No penguin, though. That was in honour of Matthew Brown, who sent me a hard copy of his book this week. Penguin Detective — The Case of No Case.

This guy’s photo went by quickly on my iPhone, and I tried to sketch him as quickly as I could. He’s 6×9 inches, in graphite on crappy dollar store paper.
