Hello, my name is WILLIAM OBRIEN,
and I'm a doodle addict. New York Plus

Lifelong illustrator/cartoonist/artist wannabe. Haven't kept up with drawing for many years and now rediscovered how much I was missing. Most new stuff is 100% pen and ink on heavy white cardstock.

HIRE ME

I specialize in pen and ink.

Wow, almost forgot I had this one. I was digging Joni Mitchell well before a lot of my friends "got" her musicianship. Obviously this was more or less copped from "Hejira" - an album that I pretty much wore out. It ain't really that good but what the hell....its aged as well as she has.

18x24 watercolor paper, technical pen and probably pastel pencil or just regular pencil blended with a q-tip. This was done for a friend who owned a wine and spirits shop, so I guess it's a vine. Or a tree. Whichever....

Magic marker, sketchbook paper. Don't remember the size. Forgot all about this one...

Another half-assed attempt at doing SOMETHING "underground- like". Meh. Magic marker on sketchbook paper. (I still like the name, though.) Late 70's...

18x24 illustration board, technical pen

A first an questionably worthwhile attempt at pointillism. 18x24 illustration board with technical pen and probably some magic marker.

18X24 watercolor paper, magic marker, technical pen, pencil. Blended with a Q-Tip cotton swab.

The second in a series of two, and the final. Cartooning is HARD!

Black Bic ballpoint on rescued cardboard....
