Schmall Cat in Coloured Pencil
By Jack Ruttan in cats, color, Coloured Pencils, pencil, watercolor, watercolourNot really a Nora cat, but a tuxling.
Notebook Computer
By Jack Ruttan in color, Coloured Pencils, digital, Portraits, sketches, watercolor, watercolour, womenMy little notebook computer is great. But it’s a little silly to use, sometimes, as this guy demonstrates. He’s drawn in melty watercolour pencils and (I didn’t realise it at the time), melty black/purple roller pen. This is a Regency little girl, inspired by Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. Of course, the real little girl […]
Coloured Pencil Things

By Jack Ruttan in color, Coloured Pencils, pencil, sketches, watercolor, watercolourThe lighting is nicer here, and gives a better image. These are some drawings I did while watching (or thinking of) old things. Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, and the movie Barry Lyndon. Watercolour pencils.

Probably not, but the idea led to an interesting-looking beast.

I have to admit that the yellow ochre underpainting thing is still my favourite, but I don’t want to use it as a crutch. Still, light in these paintings seems to be yellow. These aren’t actually “Wedgewood thumbnail roughs,” (that’s a old […]
Hands
By Jack Ruttan in black and white, Coloured Pencils, pencil, Portraits, sketches, watercolor, watercolourTrying to do more “House of Cats” pictures, but I’m lacking inspiration. So I went to youtube and watched watercolour technique videos. People’s hands are fascinating, but in these videos you rarely see the faces. So, I drew the hands in watercolour pencil, and then drew the owners’ faces as I imagined them. [link] [link] […]
New Animation Studio
By Jack Ruttan in color, Coloured Pencils, heads, men, montreal, pencil, Portraits, self-promotion, sketchesThrilled by the news that a new animation studio is opening up in Montreal (a side-effect, I think, of the low dollar making it more tempting for foreign operations to invest here. Not to mention the high number of talented artistic types in this city). In honour of that fact, I’ve done this amazing, highly-detailed […]
