Neighbourhood Lady and Unicorn
By Jack Ruttan in horses, men, sketches, watercolour, womenI can’t actually claim to have seen this in the parade of people walking by my 2nd-floor balcony, but she was a striking woman, and the dress I gave her inspired me to give her a mythological pal. Too bad about the pumps, which aren’t exactly something Burne-Jones would have added. Below, a more typical […]

Cheerful Misanthropy Comic
By Jack Ruttan in paintings, watercolourI like children, but have seen a lot of complainers, and put-upon moms. This one wasn’t written as much as it sort of fell out of my subconscious. I’m uncomfortable about it (hence the title), but it’s just paint and paper. Painting comics like this seems to take about as long as drawing them in […]

Painting Away the Blues
By Jack Ruttan in cats, men, paintings, ruttan's place, sketches, womenPainting and drawing stuff makes me feel better. here’s are some things from yesterday and this morning! Above is Bamako the Black Cat, whom I’m taking care of for the moment, and an Evil Skwirl. Below, some sketches from my balcony I drew with a ballpoint pen I just bought. Can’t resist trying out a […]

Heroes and Ordinary People
By Jack Ruttan in dogs, men, watercolour, womenIn the brush drawing, I’m imagining Wonder Woman’s frumpier, older cousin. I always think that these glamourous types have relatives who are less impressive, and jealous of them. This is Cyrano de Bergerac. In one of his works, he built himself a pair of wings, and flew to the moon. Gotta love that Cyrano! Then, […]

AddYellow
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolour, womenI’m still messing with yellow, which gives a quality of “light” to my sketches. Of course, I also have to manage the lights and darks to make this work. This is some mad spaceship. I used to draw spaceships all the time as a kid, influenced by Star Trek and 2001 A Space Odyssey. I […]

A New, New Book
By Jack Ruttan in men, sketches, watercolourPicked up a new sketchbook on the way with a friend to the new “Harry Potter” movie on the weekend. It was on the sale table at the art materials store, so I thought it was on sale, but turned out to be not. We were in a hurry to get to the show, so […]

Cats and Dogs
By Jack Ruttan in cats, dogs, sketches, watercolourI’ve scanned a lot of pictures I’ve been painting the last while, and am going to put them up on the blog step by step, maybe. That’s so I can post stuff every day! Or, I might put them up all at once. Who knows?

Today’s Page
By Jack Ruttan in cats, paintings, sketches, watercolour, womenIt’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 […]

Cell Phone Woman
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolour, womenEveryone 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.
