Ed Wood and Retro Dinos
By Jack in Animals, black and white, men, watercolour, womenIt’s The Little Book Again!
By Jack in Animals, black and white, cats, men, sketches, womenMore sketches from the little black hardcover book. I like that little book. The paper’s nice (can take a wash), and it’s small and scans reasonably well, if I don’t draw too close to the binding. Never got into Molesquines, and that sort of thing. (Not even sure how to pronounce that!) But I do [...]
Skaters and Athletic types
By Jack in black and white, men, sketches, womenWatching some Olympics, so drawing these types. Noting that I’m drawing skaters, but leaving out skates. This is kind of an R. Crumb-like girl below. Sorry. That was supposed to be a cute gopher in the background, but I smeared its eyes before they dried, and now he becomes a zombie gopher. I’m including this [...]
More Little Book Drawings…
By Jack in Animals, black and white, horses, men, sketches, womenWell, they were fun for me to do. Pretty tired now. Worked hard today. Maybe it’s just that I worked at all.
And More from Yesterday…
By Jack in black and white, colour, men, sketches, watercolour, womenI was drawing in that little book. Hence, things take less time to do. I’ll have to think about the implications of that. Not sure what the black squiggle means. I had intended it as a design element, to balance things. This morning it looks ominous.

Two Sketches
By Jack in Animals, black and white, cats, colour, horses, sketches, watercolourI did some more of these, but I’ll put them up later. Good night again!
Faces
By Jack in black and white, men, sketchesStruggling with drawing likenesses. But of course, what you do if you’re struggling with something is apply yourself to it. After a lot of failure, success, maybe. I’m not great at faces, not in life, not in drawing. Still trying. Watching my DVD of The Great Lebowski again. I don’t have a lot of DVDs! [...]
…Still More
By Jack in Animals, colour, men, planes, sketches, watercolour, women…And Another…
By Jack in colour, sketches, watercolour, womenEveryone’s been looking to the left, this time. Sometimes that seems easier. I’d also like to draw some things that have more of a story behind them, so they’re just not some anonymous face looking … to the left, for instance.
Miniatures
By Jack in Animals, colour, horses, sketches, watercolourI like these little paintings. Though I have to take my glasses off to do them. The biggest is four inches high. These others, more like three and two. No, he’s not Pedobear:
Introducing the Punk
By Jack in collaboration, comics, Richard Gagnon, sketchesThe Skinny Nameless Punk is a great cartoon character I created with collaborator Rick Gagnon, and now he has his own site. http://mruttan.ca/punk The strips were printed in Mensuhell, the Quebec monthly fanzine that shut down last year. One of the few features in that mag that ran in English, by the way. A few [...]
Untitled, this time.
By Jack in colour, men, watercolourAnother garish, unlovely watercolour to spoil your morning. But I’m not going to stop doing them. Maybe I will, and then what will you say?
No Better Things to do?
By Jack in Animals, horses, men, sketches, watercolourI’m actually putting off some important work, but thought I’d screw around with watercolour, because it’s important to keep one’s hand in. These guys are from some things I watch a lot, which are the “making of” documentaries from the Extended set Lord of the Rings DVDs. I think I like those more than the [...]
