Not much to say today. Trying to do good and useful things. But it’s hot. Would rather be wandering around outdoors.

Hey, I’m Walking Here!

Why A Fish?
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolour, womenI don’t know. Fish are fun to paint. So shiny and silvery. Blues and greens work nicely. I’m drawing tons of female figures for a job. These are the ones that don’t quite fit the bill. Still fun. I get better at these things with every job, which is great. Next one should be drawing […]

Typing Paper
By Jack Ruttan in cats, dogs, men, sketches, watercolour, womenDon’t think I’ve completely mastered the scanner. Have to look at all the options. In the meantime, here’re a bunch of things I’ve been drawing on scrap paper, while drawing stuff for another job I can’t show you at the moment. Mainly front balcony things.

Enter Title Here
By Jack Ruttan in cats, men, sketches, watercolour, womenI could go on about things, but I think I’m just going to put these up, and leave it at that. Of course, I’ll probably end up making little comments here and there. Above is a gang of sketchbook people, and a happy “War of the Worlds” tripod. I love the old 1910’s version of […]

Some More Sketchbook Pages
By Jack Ruttan in cats, horses, men, sketches, watercolour, women‘Cause of my getting a new scanner, I’ve scanned all these pages, which, up until now, were hidden in my sketchbook. Now they’re here, for all of you to enjoy! A couple of the characters here are taken from Barbara Bradley’s book Drawing People: How to portray the clothed figure. Will have to talk about […]

New Scanner Rocks the Black and White
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, womenI’m happy with my new scanner, especially the speed, and lack of power cords to tangle. There’s a lot of black and white stuff I’ve drawn that needs scanning, so here it is. Slovenly walking girls! Assorted dancers! Strange tall women! Guys in suits! I love them all!

New Scanner
By Jack Ruttan in cats, men, sketches, watercolour, womenThe new scanner is faster, and captures more detail in my wonky watercolour pics. I still haven’t worked out all the kinks, because there are more options to deal with.

“Extra”-ordinary Day.
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, womenI got to be on TV again. A series called Blue Mountain State is shooting here, at the local agricultural wing of our McGill University, which also houses something called John Abbott College. That’s me above, after a long hot day of work. I essayed the role of “Homeless Person,” in the morning, and then […]

Still Not Scanning…
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolour, womenBut snapping pictures is fun when you get the random extras. A lot of women walking by with headscarves. I say yay for diversity.

Avoidin’ the Blog!
By Jack Ruttan in dogs, sketches, watercolour, womenSorry about that. There are actually tons of sketches, etc. to post. I did this picture today of a female comics artist with an Icelandic firedog. It’s very cozy this evening on the balcony stairs, twittering, and typing, and watching people walk by. Couple on the next balcony are snogging, which is a little awkward, […]

Out of my Head…
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, womenI mean FROM my head, of course. More things drawn, because I’m mad about drawing. Women, of course, because the burlesque assignment continues (though that’s often just an excuse). It’s wet today, so no drawing from the balcony. I’m wondering if people think I’m strange, because I’m out there so often. Interested in odd body […]

Portraits
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, watercolour, womenSome painted faces. Man, the new flickr.com layout was a pain, but I’m able to keep to the old one for the moment. Otherwise, no images for the blog!
