New Post
By Jack Ruttan in cats, sketches, watercolourBeen busy, not been blogging a lot. Not been drawing tons that I’m happy with. Not too thrilled with this, but it’s where my head’s been at. Good night!

Park Sketching
By Jack Ruttan in montreal, sketches, watercolourNice day yesterday (not so much today!), so I took off on the bike. Sat in the park in the morning, and sketched.
