That’s just a (possibly misheard) song lyric from Wendy James, that I thought would make a neat title. Otherwise, these are new sketches, from my recent trip to Calgary to visit my Dad, who passed away. This and the other two below are from the Toronto Pearson Airport. Little horse, drawn on the plane: Server […]

I’m blaming terrible personal stuff, which I may or may not write about, for the lack of blogging. But I’m still drawing things. So, I thought I’d throw some more up here, and try to do that daily. These are all from my mini-sketchbook. It’s hardbound, and about 3×5 inches. I like it. Sometimes it’s […]

This is sort of an angry Peter Mansbridge. But I was really just practicing my shading and crosshatching chops on an old pencil sketch. Below, two old outer space farts, from the Dark Side of the Force: Last, my portrait of Cat Boy. At age 13, he’s sort of an old fart of the cat […]

Feeling like I’m getting better at it. Actually, I just enjoy doing these. Meanwhile, I’m watching a cheap supermarket DVD of the silent film “Nosferatu.” The picture quality is terrible, but every frame is a perfect image.

Slide show of pictures is below. Click on one for information, or visit the flickr site to see the names of people, credits, etc. Remember, […]

Today I’m going to be cartooning at the Eaton Centre in Downtown Montreal, part of the events surrounding Car Free Day in that part of the city. Please visit, if you can make it! Meantime, I bought a new little sketchbook (only 4″x6″), and drew a bunch of things. Mainly animal-related.

Still drawing. Just haven’t scanned and blogged things for a bit. Here’s a little more…

Drew some guys walking in the street, and then added interesting backgrounds to them.

The first one worked out pretty well. Kind of Frank Miller-ish, except it’s a non Frank Miller subject. Will work on making blog posts more exciting. But at least they’re quick to do! New Wave kid. The above and top are more or less inspired by the film Control, about the lead singer of Joy […]

Mostly based around movies, etc. I’m making you guess.

Feel like I should be more directed in these things. Like just not drawing only whatever pops into my head. Mind you, it’s a kind of therapy, and relaxation. I’m not doing it for a goal. Above is a scene from an air race in the golden age of such things, the 1930s. Below, a […]
