Rainy Monday
By Jack Ruttan in cats, montreal, ruttan's place, sketchesSounds kind of bluesy, and I am out of sorts. But I put the living-room “tree” outside to rinse off the dust in the rain. Sure, like I want it to get bigger, and overwhelm the apartment, like Washington at the end of Logan’s Run. Don’t worry, the cats don’t nibble on it. Thought I […]

Bonne Saint-Jean!
By Jack Ruttan in montreal, sketchesFor Saint Jean’s this year, I went out to Mile End. It’s a more English neighbourhood in Montreal than where I live, but that’s where my friends were. In past years there was this big party on rue Saint Viateur, but that’s a thing of the past now. There was just a little pocket of […]

By Jack Ruttan in montreal, ruttan's place, sketchesPeople go by, things go by… Ugly dog who is well-loved by someone. My fat guys weren’t fat enough.

Fan-dumb
By Jack Ruttan in dogs, sketchesHave this flickr uploader gadget in the blog. Haven’t gotten it to work yet. This is my first real post on the new system on the blog. Pretty spiffy. Plus I feel proud of myself for following the 18 or so steps to upgrade, with backups and passwords and all. Anyhow (feeling wordy, a switch […]

Back to Gagnon Fridays
By Jack Ruttan in montreal, sketchesEven though it’s a Monday (lots happening on the weekend, so this post got pushed back), I’m very happy that R. Gagnon and I had a chance last Friday afternoon to meet at a bar again, for drinks and drawing. He did very serious, illustrator-y treatments of my drawings, as with the above. The drawing […]

Esteemed Conservative Pundit
By Jack Ruttan in sketchesOkay. There’s going to be a lot of blogging today. Thought I’d start with this sketch of an esteemed conservative pundit I drew while listening to P.J. O’Rourke on the radio. I don’t think P.J. O’Rourke actually looks like this, so I’m giving him the title above.

Drawing Kinski
By Jack Ruttan in sketchesThese guys (1) (2) (3) have the right idea. Making images of German actor Klaus Kinski is fun. So much so, I included his daughter, Nasty.

Cats and Guys
By Jack Ruttan in cats, sketches, watercolourThat’s what we’ve got today. Mr. Street Black Cat better be careful. We don’t want him to become black cat pizza! And a final hat guy:

Another weekend
By Jack Ruttan in sketches, watercolourJust some stuff I drew over the weekend. “Gagnon Fridays” are on hiatus for a bit, as we figure out a new place to meet. I liked the old one, but it takes two to get together. Hope something happens. I enjoyed those. Rough pic of a P-38 lightning above. Below, these drawings are separate, […]

Drama
By Jack Ruttan in cats, sketchesA dramatic sketch of Nora the kitty. None of the cats are very dramatic at the moment. They’re lying around like plague victims, and it’s not even all that hot. A harbinger of things to come this summer? Below, another drawing. Kind of an office scene:
