Not totally sure about the angry guy face, but that’s what’s happening at the moment in my sketchbooks. The person in the snow suit was real. No penguin, though. That was in honour of Matthew Brown, who sent me a hard copy of his book this week. Penguin Detective — The Case of No Case.

My Friend’s Back Yard
By Jack Ruttan in cats, Jack's House of Cats, paintings, Portraits, sketches, watercolor, watercolour, womenThis is from an older sketchbook, so I suppose it qualifies as “archival.” It’s my friend’s back yard, with her cat, and even a portrait of her, on the left hand side, and Yours Truly on the right.

Not the brightest dog in the […]
