Green Hair

By Jack Ruttan in sketchesHey! Another April post! I found the one monochrome drawing underneath the cart that holds my printer. It was dusty, and had lived under there I’m sure since the year under my initials. The second one is from a sketchbook, and more from this year. Sorry for the negative emotion, and swear word. Still, there […]
April Blog
By Jack Ruttan in ballpoint pen, color, Coloured Pencils, heads, montreal, paintings, pencil, ruttan's place, sketches, watercolor, watercolourHere we are, in my old-fashioned editor, putting up pictures from my sketchbook into my old-fashioned blog. I used to know how to write CSS, and make pretty styles for text and paragraphs. Not to mention the tags for these illustrations. Haven’t done much of that for a long while! I listened to a […]
Dinos
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolor, watercolourI’m actually glad the more recent reconstructions of Tyrannosaurus Rex aren’t as feathery as they were a few years back, when I drew these things. Mainly I’m posting this because I noticed I hadn’t posted anything this year yet, so I wanted to keep the blog more or less fresh. I am paying for the […]
Ninja Turtle
By Jack Ruttan in sketchesThis is actually just a sketch of a guy in the metro I’ve embellished a little. I don’t get much time to draw in the metro, and I certainly can’t watercolour. But it’s fun to play with things in my book, after the fact.

Jack R.’s Patreon
By Jack Ruttan in sketchesI haven’t been able to put this on the sidebar of my site. But I’ve created a Patreon Page. People can visit it, see cool stuff maybe you can’t see here, and make contributions and such-like. It’s what artists are doing these days. You can also write me and ask for a commission. A watercolour […]
Skinny Nameless Punk
By Jack Ruttan in sketchesMy comic strip I created with Richard Gagnon has flown the coop for the moment. I think I need to update my “comicpress” theme, and am afraid they want money from now on. Still, I’m working on it, and in the meanwhile, I did a little drawing of him to practice my digital drawing skills.
UFOs
By Jack Ruttan in Blender 3DOf course, they have some new kind of name, which I forget at the moment. (“Unidentified Aerial Phenomena”!) These were made in Blender, which I am still fooling with, but seems to change a lot, so it’s hard to keep up with the new interfaces and all. I like the finish on the one in […]
Yelling People!
By Jack Ruttan in color, Coloured Pencils, heads, pencil, Portraits, sketches, watercolor, watercolour, womenI have to update my blog, template and all, to add new, modern things. I hope not a ton of pop-ups, etcetera. Still, this is a recent sketchbook page I actually worked on today! I’m setting up a Patreon link, and also have a cool illustration thing I’m going to share soon! Please stay tuned!
Newish Pages
By Jack Ruttan in ballpoint pen, black and white, brush pen, color, horses, men, pencil, sketchesNewish sketchbook pages. You know, I used to put up a drawing every day, and felt unhappy if I didn’t. But these days, while I’m still drawing a lot, I’m not blogging as much. Social Media is strange. I loved Twitter, but they seem to be doing as much as they can to ruin it. […]
Old Me
By Jack Ruttan in Gouache, heads, men, self-promotion, sketchesOld old self-portrait. Mid 2000’s, I think.
