This is supposed to be Anne Hathaway from The Devil Wears Prada. It looks a little like her….

By Jack Ruttan in ballpoint pen, black and white, heads, pen and ink, self-promotion, sketchesDrawn last year, at least according to the number beside the signature. I’ll try to get into comics more, eventually! Got some interesting old family stuff, as well. So I can post a bit of that, too.
Clip Studio Trees
By Jack Ruttan in color, digital, ruttan's place, self-promotion, sketches, UncategorizedHere’s a painting I made in Clip Studio Paint, with my $80 Huion Tablet, which I bought years ago. I’m just trying stuff out. I like the “Add Texture” feature of the program, which makes it look like you’ve used real paper.
Ugly Yoda
By Jack Ruttan in Coloured Pencils, heads, pen and ink, pencil, ruttan's place, self-promotion, sketchesThis is just another page from my Dollarama Sketchbook. I used to have a deal where I would post whatever I drew that day, whether it was nice or not, but I’m trying to get back into nicer paintings. So watch this space. (I’ve got a lot of updating to do on my website […]

Boop!

By Jack Ruttan in color, Gouache, heads, Jack's House of Cats, men, montreal, paintings, Portraits, self-promotion, sketches, watercolourI’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 […]
Old Me
By Jack Ruttan in Gouache, heads, men, self-promotion, sketchesOld old self-portrait. Mid 2000’s, I think.
New Profile Pic
By Jack Ruttan in digital, self-promotion, sketchesI like drawing green monster boys. Did this one as quickly as I could, on the digital.
Rank the Prank
By Jack Ruttan in digital, self-promotion, sketches, storyboardsFinally able to unveil them. I’m completely thrilled. Please check out some of the concept drawings I made for the TV show RANK THE PRANK, now playing on the BBC, BBC Canada, and Nickelodeon. [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 […]
Paintings on Whatman paper
By Jack Ruttan in paintings, ruttan's place, self-promotionThis is a recent painting I did on the Whatman paper. Even though I work hard on adding light, I fancy that it’s somehow brighter, almost sparkly. Here’s the paper stretched and ready to go: Here’s a closeup of the grain. It’s pretty rough, Hot-rolled, as they say (I think). Maybe I’m the only one […]
Jack Ruttan – Storyboards and French-English Translation
By Jack Ruttan in collaboration, ruttan's place, self-promotion, storyboardsI’ve made up a promotional postcard to advertise my skills. It’s going up on walls and into mailboxes in the real world, because I’m thinking people like to hold something in their hands. It’s also something cute to hand out after a face to face meeting. Remember those? My “adobe illustrator” skills were a little […]
