That’s Super, Supergirl.
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, womenNot drawing a lot right now. Well, a little bit. Working on stuff, honest! Not just creepy pictures of superheroines.

Watercolour Crowd
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, watercolour, womenWorking on stuff. Depressed over the earthquake in Haiti. Found time to do some watercolours. But they’re hard, still no system of how to do them. Actually, though they don’t always turn out the way I want them too (part of my brilliant system of not thinking before I start anything), I really enjoy doing […]

Lhasa de Sela
By Jack Ruttan in montreal, sketches, watercolour, womenGoing to miss Lhasa de Sela. Not that I played her music a lot around here, but I always paused when La Lorona or one of her other haunting numbers came on the radio, or played at a friend’s place. Kind of a female version of Leonard Cohen, at least in the sultry romantic aspect […]

Back to Black and White
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, womenA little more cozy with the pen and ink. Also, the drawing here’s more relaxed. Too many little guidelines, and maybe a degree of uptightness harms the art. I don’t mind putting up stuff I’m not too thrilled with, because the blog is about process. And, sometimes, stuff I’m not happy with, someone else loves, […]

Glamour Girls
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolour, womenStill just working on stuff. It’s not always perfect, but I like the process. Last night I was trying to paint glamour girls, or cheesecake. A popular topic in some quarters. Anyhow, Cyd Charisse from a photo is lacking life. She’s also lacking Gene Kelly from Singin’ In The Rain at the end of her […]

Mad About Drawing
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, watercolour, womenFor the title, thinking of Hokusai, who sometimes signed himself “Old Man Mad About Drawing.” When I drew this guy, I was watching Velvet Underground. My categories seem increasingly random. I’m not even sure what “Tags” are, so I don’t use them. I want to put in a Twitter and an RSS badge, but later. […]

wimmens
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolour, womenDrawing and painting women today. Want to be a little more ambitious, but it’s tough in one’s old age. I will strive! The scanner’s all right for black and white, but really not good for colour. Expecially watercolour. Saw some new scanners for sale, might pick one up. I hate spending money, however.

Pensive Pen Sketches
By Jack Ruttan in cats, dogs, sketches, womenThese don’t need explaining, but I like to write a little. Above is Catwoman and a dog. Below, the creepy cowboy from Mulholland Drive. Next, some well-known author at a badly-attended book convention. I’ve sometimes dreamed about being able to fly to the ceiling at these things. Though I didn’t need Leo da Vinci wings. […]
