By Jack Ruttan in cats, digitalThis is a digital drawing where I started with a silhouette painted with a large brush, and then filled in highlights and details with smaller brushes.

Morning Sketches
By Jack Ruttan in cats, pencil, sketchesMaybe for one of the last times on the balcony, I’m afraid. Inside hazards include overly attentive cats who want to be front and centre on the lap. Still, these are various people I saw walking past, and an impression of Nora the cat “playing the cello.”

Eccentric Paintings of People and Pets
By Jack Ruttan in cats, color, dogs, paintings, parks, sketches, watercolor, watercolourI’m not fond of the new way Flickr has of embedding one’s graphics. I just want you to be able to see the one image, not scroll along to a lot of others. Generally, I’ve been embedding them into the website, which is probably a better solution, but I worry about all those graphics piling […]

Crime Faces, Etc.
By Jack Ruttan in black and white, cats, men, pencil, sketchesDrawing some big things in pencil. Too big for the scanner, so I took some snaps! I used hair spray as fixative. It’s fruit-scented, so not as nasty (or expensive) as standard fixative, but you get tired of the smell after a while anyhow. Inspired a little by an art show I saw. Will post […]

Black Cat!
By Jack Ruttan in cats, watercolourI’m doing at least a painting a day at the moment. And in standard sizes. Besides this, a lot of images were orphaned when the blog broke down. Think I will put them into a slideshow, just so’s you can see them. Or, a really large post.

Cross-Hatchery
By Jack Ruttan in ballpoint pen, black and white, cats, color, digital, pen and ink, pencil, womenThese are almost automatic drawings I do, while watching movies on the DVD machine, or petting cats. Cross-hatching is fun for me, but there’s almost no end to it. You simply have to stop, rather than declare something finished. The bonus this time is a little coloured cat picture:

Vet Bill Blues
By Jack Ruttan in cats, ruttan's placeI’ve set up a contribution page to help me deal with a big vet bill rescuing a sick orphan kitten. Link to page about Gaston the kitten. Or, is he now called “Jack Bauer?” Not something I’d normally do, but friends expressed interest in contributing when I told the story, so I thought I may […]

Hospital Waiting
By Jack Ruttan in ballpoint pen, black and white, cats, heads, horses, men, pen and ink, sketches, womenSketches done at the Hôtel Dieu Hospital, in the tiny waiting room in the endoscopy ward. My friend checked out OK, but it was a tough few hours waiting. Happyily, I had my book, (TOO MUCH HAPPINESS by Alice Munro), and my sketchbook. No one asked me what I was doing, thank goodness. Not all […]
