Cats and Comedy

By in brush pen, cats, color, Gouache, men, paintings, sketches, watercolor, watercolour

Was watching comedy last night on CBC TV. I’m afraid I feel a little like the squirrel in this drawing….

Red Gothic Guy in Gouache

By in Gouache, heads, men, paintings, ruttan's place, sketches, watercolour

I’m happy that this is posting, because I’m not too thrilled with my digital painting program at the moment. Maybe it’s calmed down now, and recognizes me. I also put my thumb drive in the pocket of my fuzzy sweater, because I wanted to print something at the library. But the library printer only prints […]

Here are some garlic people for Patti, my former showrunner turned chef, and a little R. Crumb-like drawing.

Sketchbooks and word balloons

By in color, Coloured Pencils, comics, digital, heads, men, ruttan's place, sketches, watercolor, watercolour

Not totally sure about the angry guy face, but that’s what’s happening at the moment in my sketchbooks. The person in the snow suit was real. No penguin, though. That was in honour of Matthew Brown, who sent me a hard copy of his book this week. Penguin Detective — The Case of No Case.

Costumed Grouch

By in black and white, heads, men, pencil, Portraits, sketches

This guy’s photo went by quickly on my iPhone, and I tried to sketch him as quickly as I could. He’s 6×9 inches, in graphite on crappy dollar store paper.

Trees and Kid

By in heads, men, paintings, Portraits, sketches, watercolour

I’m watercolouring again. Using the cheap paper, but still, it’s good to get into things. I did the kid separately, and then digitally pasted him in. So, it’s a combination digital/watercolour work, if you want to be technical about it.

Watercolour Faces

By in color, Gouache, heads, Jack's House of Cats, men, montreal, paintings, Portraits, self-promotion, sketches, watercolour

I’m just putting this up to see how big the graphic is….  Not too impressive, eh? It’s relaxing sitting on the front balcony doodling faces and the passing scene outside. People go by, things go by, as James Agee put it… Watercolour takes a lot of work to get back to one’s level. Haven’t sold […]

Newish Pages

By in ballpoint pen, black and white, brush pen, color, horses, men, pencil, sketches

Newish 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. […]

By in Gouache, heads, men, self-promotion, sketches

Old old self-portrait. Mid 2000’s, I think.

Spiky Hair

By in color, digital, men

I’m afraid I’m avoiding watercolours by drawing things such as this. He’s sort of true to this drawing software, which started life out as “Manga Studio.”
