Coloured Pencil Things
By Jack Ruttan in cats, color, Coloured Pencils, heads, pencil, sketches, womenStar Wars, etc.
By Jack Ruttan in black and white, color, heads, paintings, Portraits, sketches, watercolor, watercolour, womenPosting various sketches I’ve been doing. Mainly to do with the new “Star Wars” movie, which I finally saw, and “Emma” by Jane Austen. Star Wars had some pleasant new characters, but it was basically a rehash of the same old plot. I mean where did they find the time and materials to build a […]
Doot Doot

In the sketchbook.
By Jack Ruttan in black and white, color, paintings, pencil, sketches, watercolor, watercolour, womenMy sketchbook is a bit like my written journal. I sit down with it, with no idea of what I’m about to write (or draw). Kind of therapy, I suppose, or like practicing scales if you were playing the piano. The bottom corner is a gentleman I saw walking by on the street. Above was […]
