It’s good to see Rick Gagnon again, at our traditional Friday afternoon meet at the Cock N’ Bull for drawing and chat. We missed last week, and then I put this post off until today, because of all the class action excitement. But here we are again, with another batch of fun drawings. Below, can […]

This is Nekko Dekko, the protector of Honshu. Below, a couple of people in red: You’d think it would be easier, painting two pictures on the same piece of paper at the same time. Saves effort stretching it, and all that. But it’s too easy to splatter dark blobs of paint around, and therefore not […]

The “They Live!” alien family who put up the lost cat poster in yesterday’s drawing got their pet back. This has made their gruesome little daughter especially happy. When they’re not telling earth people to “OBEY” and “CONSUME,” this couple collects cats from different worlds. Below, the “Alien ™” cat has forged an alliance with […]

Sick today. So I coloured that cat I drew earlier, and painted some other faces.

More Friday evening stuff, back at the bar. Above is a drawing by Marr which I watercoloured, and dressed up the people to make a 1960s scene, like I remember from Yorkville, Toronto’s glory days. Below is sort of by all three of us. I did two characters, Marr did a character (on the left), […]

I’ve been that way for the last couple of days, so lacked the energy to do very much. Feeling better today, so I thought I’d post some stuff. Tried taking snaps of it rather than scanning. Just some drawing I’ve been doing affected by things I’ve been reading and watching. The girl cats are enjoying […]

A little at sixes and sevens this weekend, and drawing helps me relax. I’m not going to identify the pair up above, because fans of celebrities on the internet are sometimes crazy, and will go to silly lengths being rude trying to preserve their imaginary relationships with their idols. I might tell you more stories […]

I was pretty tired last night, so I retired early from the bar. My friends stuck around, but were soon chased away by the band setting up. They, however, went down the hill to R. Gagnon’s place, and kept drawing. Rick sent me evidence via e-mail of what happened. This looks like Rick a bit, […]

Wow. That was heavy, because I’ve been doing the blog for four years, and what do I get when I think everything is set up right? The domain name is attached to a spam blog. I wrote a letter to my domain seller’s support, and immediately after, either by design or coincidence, the wordpress blog […]

Drat. The blog on blogger is gone again. So here’s today’s sketch: a cowboy parking, and Miss Precious Perfect & friend.

That was traumatic. Blogger was down over Christmas, so I and a lot of other people couldn’t post over that time. What a lot of cry-babies! Still, the frustration expressed shows how much these web diaries have become habits. Because I wasn’t doing much for Christmas, it got me into setting up this WordPress blog, […]
