Behind on Blogging

By in cats, sketches

Wild people. Drawing by me, inks by Rick. Don’t get me wrong. I love my blog. I can express stuff here and gas on about things, and look at my funny sketches. Who cares that only about 30 people a day visit the thing. But busy computer-related work (websites and writing) takes its toll of […]

Slew of New Sketches

By in dogs, sketches, women

Sometimes I wait a while and then post a lot of sketches I’ve done, but didn’t post, for whatever reason. Nice not to have to look at my friend’s death notice first thing when I visit the blog, however.

Worldcon Montreal, 2009 – what a night!

By in montreal, sketches

Went to my friend, Claude Lalumiere‘s launch, for his upcoming book of short stories: OBJECTS OF WORSHIP, at WORLDCON, the world Science Fiction / Fantasy convention, happening in Montreal this year. Funny, two-level suite at the Delta Hotel in downtown Montreal. So I shot this snap up top of Claude, and the book’s illustrator, Rupert […]

Back to Gagnon Fridays

By in sketches

It’s been too long, but last night I was drinking with my friend Richard Gagnon, and doing silly drawings. He usually inks things that I’ve drawn. Gives me new ideas about where to place black and whites, etc. I’m feeling a little burnt at the moment, so am just going to post these, to get […]

Just some sketching

By in cats, sketches

Like the title says. I’ve started a new contract, and have been a little distracted. Also some sad news, which I’ll blog later, when I’m ready. Still, hope you like crazy sketches of cats and whatnot.

Park Sketching

By in montreal, sketches, watercolour

Nice day yesterday (not so much today!), so I took off on the bike. Sat in the park in the morning, and sketched. People were taking showers in the kiddies’ fountain you can see the edge of, at the left. (I think the fountain (which you can see in the link) was designed by Vittorio, […]

Some More Sketches…

By in sketches, watercolour

These have been piling up! I have no idea why I named the truck “Wibberly.” It’s the name of an old British SF author. And another picture. “So What” girl visits Star Wars:

Odds and ends

By in men, montreal, sketches

He’s supposed to be a cheery little guy with a twinkle in his eye. Meanwhile, Walter Matthau is being uncharacteristically menacing (and cryptic): And this is just an old sketch, made in the lobby of the Musée des Beaux Arts:

Birthday and Back on the Balcony

By in men, sketches, women

My browser wasn’t cooperating, and I wasn’t going to be able to post these pictures. But something shook loose. Leading off above is a B-Day card for a friend, who likes military things. Below, a walking girl: And a woman director: Random guys on a page:

More Awkward Watercolour

By in sketches, watercolour

I kind of enjoy trying things out, and possibly failing, rather than doing one perfect picture after another of something I know I can do. Hence these. Guy in a slightly Middle Ages hood. These “backwashes” or “cauliflowers” are accidents. I could paint them out with another layer. But they’re interesting, so they stay. On […]

Running out of Sketchbook Pages

By in sketches

Will have to buy new books, or draw on the walls. You can’t stop me. These were outside walkers, and a ball player. I see ball players often, because there’s a diamond in the park around the corner.

More Watercolour Messing Around

By in sketches, watercolour

Still working on stuff. Maybe not the stuff I should be. But it is fun!
