Yesterday’s comic was my trying to do that. Get into a working routine that doesn’t take me too long (nobody’s paying for those pages yet! But they’re a lot of effort), and see what works. That means finding what I’d like to do, and in what style. Also, as I usually do with the sketches […]

Awful day yesterday, but got better. Did some drawing late at night with the Staedtler coloured ballpoints. That helped.

Always sketching: busy hands. I added her dress pattern via photoshop. Yay, C’boys! One of them is vaguely Francis Ford Coppola, director of the Godfather films:

Working 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 […]

The scanner seems to like the coloured pen colours better than the more usually respectable watercolours I do. Except there’s not a good yellow in coloured pen ink. So, I used a yellow pencil.

This is kind of cool, if deranged. Drawn with a set of colour ball point pens. Reminds me a little of Louis Wain’s cats, but I haven’t completely gone around the bend yet. Writing an odd script for a science fiction comic story. It would be nice to finish that, and actually do something of […]

For 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. […]

Drawing 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.

For a project I’m working on. Below is just another cat.

Not too much comment needed here. This was done on the back of another drawing. I’m in a bit of a lull at the moment, after recent traumatic stuff. So, taking the opportunity to relax at little. So, there will probably be more drawings, etc. Pictures of cats? Maybe so. You can only hope.

Just a couple of watercolour sketches. Still decompressing from recent events. Trying to catch up on work, as well.
