Pretty Women

By in paintings, sketches, watercolour, women

I’m getting used to the idea that I’m not a particularly precise or careful painter, but the better pictures seem to be the ones I don’t fuss over too much. I’m not good at underdrawing and structure. When I try to use them, the results seem forced and stiff. I think these are nice, because […]

People Sitting

By in men, sketches, watercolour, women

Still doing pinup girls, though this one is kind of rubbery. Bear with me, please! Also, a sitting guy.

Kids and Cats

By in cats, sketches, watercolour, women

I was out on the weekend, and wasn’t able to post things. But today, here’s this nice page. At least, I like the mom and kid, drawn from life.

Further Faces

Just more watercolour stuff for the blog. Some pointless pointing, it seems!

Today’s Page

By in cats, paintings, sketches, watercolour, women

It’s awkward scanning things out of a ring-bound sketchbook. Pages are all “cockled” when it’s watercolour, and you can never get it to line up on the scanner. I also had to scan this page twice and “stitch” together, which also was a pain. Not to mention fixing that tree, which had a lot of […]

Dog and Woman, and Sad Daisy Mae

Excuse the long title. I’m using SEO (Search Engine Optimization) to bring up my blog visit stats! (As if that will help).

Cell Phone Woman

By in sketches, watercolour, women

Everyone I see downtown these days is texting, or talking on a phone. Don’t know what to make of this, but it’s not me. Though I am addicted to twitter, and my little sub-notebook computer.

Yellow and Sepia

By in sketches, watercolour, women

I am so wiped out today. Combination of humid heat and allergies. But I’ve been painting lots of things. Not all of it really good, because for some reason I’m painting over old pencil drawings in the sketchbook. But I like how the darks and lights are going. Will do some pretty ones, I promise.

Pushing Ahead

By in cats, dogs, men, sketches, watercolour, women

After not posting much, for a while, I’ve been doing a flurry of painting. Seems I need to go through a number of indifferent things to “ramp up” to something better. Anyhow, I’m happier with what’s going on here. Painting lots of cats for this cat strip I’m trying to finish. Wish it felt easier, […]

Another Day

By in sketches, watercolour, women

Sketches of women and other things. A couple of other posts I’ve been sitting on, because they’re more complicated. Will try to get them up, soon!

Dinosaurs, Etc.

By in sketches, watercolour, women

I’ve not been blogging as much as usual. Still drawing things, however. Since the weather’s gotten nicer, and I’m less busy, maybe there will be more stuff here, if I’m not totally distracted by Twitter.
