Just trying to keep this thing up to date. I still use it. I don’t know who visits it….

Digital Burd and Flower
By Jack Ruttan in sketches
More digital things, thanks to Clip Studio Paint, and my Huion pad and stylus. Not too inspiring as a work of art, but I’m getting into pressing all the right switches and finding the commands. Someday I’ll record some things on Instagram, and you can see my wonderful process….

Puck the Dog!
By Jack Ruttan in digital, dogs
Here’s a little picture of a dog I did for a birthday card. I was a little influenced by this artist I know on Twitter.
Sometimes it’s hard drawing dogs, and making the eyes not creepy. Adding a little white often helps, but some people just do “people eyes.” Or dots, as in this case.

Lilac Paper

Some drawings on this pretty paper my pal has pads of.
The guy with a sword in his mouth is inspired by one of the stained glass images in the Sainte-Chapelle Church in Paris.

Anthropomorpic Rabbit and Bike.

Watercolour and black ballpoint. I think this character is my “Rabbit” from the comic strips I used to do.

Harpy

Looking at pictures by Peter de Seve. He draws scary ladies, which I sort of like. Ballpoint pen, with unapologetic blobs.

Eastern
By Jack Ruttan in color, Gouache, heads, paintings, sketches, watercolor, watercolour
I really hope that the little art shop in Chinatown near Clarke Street has survived. I like independent shops more than the big chains. Found cool stuff there, such as this book, and that brush.
This is actually a face I did years ago, in black gouache, and just added colour to, today.
