Been sick these last few days. Drew some stuff, of course. Mostly this evening, when I was feeling better. Could add more blood splats, I suppose.

More junk I’ve been drawing
By Jack Ruttan in horses, men, sketches, watercolour, womenHaven’t had all that much time, so I’m putting up some odds and ends I’ve drawn. The aging guy heads were copied, more or less, from the book Drawing People, by Barbara Bradley. Flying things, and a nerdy kid. An old-fashioned “War of the Worlds” tripod, and a farmer’s cart. Why? I have no idea.

Colour Comic Time
By Jack Ruttan in horses, watercolourFor some reason, these take about as long as the black and white ones! Going to try and do more. They’ll probably make more sense, get more relaxed as I go along. I’ve got a pile of stories. Just haven’t drawn (or painted) them, yet. This one come out of my head as I was […]

August Montreal Comic Jam
By Jack Ruttan in horses, sketches, watercolourAfter missing a couple of nights, I finally made it to the monthly Montreal Comic Jam. Took pictures, but now I’m lazy, and put them into a slide show. You can actually click on photos as they pass by above to read info about who’s in them, etc. Enthused about watercolour, I brought my set […]

Keep Kicking that Can Around
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolourWas pretty down today, but doing this cheered me up. Just left blank bubbles and squares, then filled them in with whatever. Mainly according to songs I was listening to on the shuffle.

Retirement
By Jack Ruttan in cats, men, sketchesThis is something what I’m going to look like when I’m ready to cash in my life insurance. I understand that when one turns 80, the amount you can take out goes down, for some reason I can’t fathom. That’s probably a different cat than present, unless Mr. Boggedy has some strange abilities I’m not […]

Retro Lines
By Jack Ruttan in dogs, sketches, womenI’m way more comfortable drawing in a spidery scratchy way than I am making the slick lines that seem popular in animation and graphic art these days. Still, fun to try. Doing some construction is also helping me with the heads and bodies. Part of the trouble with being self-taught as an artist, is that […]

Worst Case Scenario
By Jack Ruttan in men, watercolourDiscussing hats, and drawing them, on twitter. Dylan Meconis offered a tutorial on her blog on how to draw tricorn hats. I don’t have big problems with those. But I do with fedoras and cowboy hats. So another artist, Brian Moore, offered me this: Worst-case scenario: ZAPHOD BEEBLEBROX, THE SINGING COWBOY GANGSTER. So, of course […]

Random Page of Stuff
By Jack Ruttan in cats, men, sketches, womenI’ve used that title before. This is just a page of drawings. Some of them, mainly that dancing girl, relate to work things. Yay for roller pens!
