Maybe I’m just getting soft in my old age, or more choosy of what I put up. Here, I’m not being choosy, but this is a little of what I’ve been doing as […]

Feathered T Rex sketches
By Jack Ruttan in color, Coloured Pencils, dinosaurs, sketchesI love dinosaurs. Always have. Still, I’m trying to keep up with current thought on what they looked like, and not just redraw old images that probably didn’t exist. I like the idea that even the carnivorous ones were probably not monsters, but animals out in the wild. Also, during my summer I worked at […]

Eccentric Paintings of People and Pets
By Jack Ruttan in cats, color, dogs, paintings, parks, sketches, watercolor, watercolourI’m not fond of the new way Flickr has of embedding one’s graphics. I just want you to be able to see the one image, not scroll along to a lot of others. Generally, I’ve been embedding them into the website, which is probably a better solution, but I worry about all those graphics piling […]

That event will happen next week, August 23, 2014. Finally saw the design in print last night at the get-together for volunteers. This happened at a pretty little place called the Coop du Grand Orme. Snaps of things are below. The band is […]

Lachine Canal
By Jack Ruttan in montreal, paintings, watercolor, watercolourThis wasn’t working as a painting, so I decided to see if I could put little people along the front of it. That didn’t work perfectly, either: some “pentimenti” here — that’s because it’s transparent watercolour, except for the white. Still, fun to try, and I’m not so annoyed with it anymore.

Inspired by George Stubbs
By Jack Ruttan in dogs, horses, sketches, watercolorGeorge Stubbs is one of my favourite painters. Not just because of his horses and dogs, (though those are great, too), but his wonderful, very sober, 18th-century people.
