It's a sperm whale and underground hip-hop kind of day in my world right now.

This line from the Stephin Merritt episode of the 'She's A Talker' podcast (referring to Stephen Sondheim plot-lines) got my imagination ticking in overdrive

A detailed lineart sketch of the Lichtenstein Castle In Germany, situated on a hill under a cloudy sky.

This is the 2nd piece that I painted during my train journey. I painted this scene after getting mesmerised by the view from the train window. We just passed by a lake which had flowers on the riverbank. A group of girls ( students ) got excited when I showed some of my paintings. So I gifted one of them this (●'◡'●)

Patron Saint of Woodpeckers and Hangovers. And possibly headaches. I think I remember reading that woodpeckers probably all have headaches, even with their tongues and flexible skulls. I have a headache. #patronSaint

Current sketchbook obsession that has me feeling like both artist and spectator.

Show Me The Candy Club

Ink and marker on mixed media paper.

I thought I would play with crayons this morning. The bird with the cute hairdo is a Livingstone’s turaco from the family Musophagidae. Found in the subtropical lowlands of southeastern Africa. This bird’s plumage is the color of spring. Crayola crayons on toned tan sketch paper.

Drawn in pencil and colored with watercolor.

This was my first full-scale piece of 2020. One of my favourite locations in Wales.

Wild Roses in varying stages of life. Graphite in pocketbook sized Moleskine

I haven’t been motivated to draw lately, but I finally motivated my self to start a new project. This is a horse eye close up done in pencil

Sketchbook work. Markers, coffee and pen.

I don't know why I love drawing birds so much, I just do, and it's always small ones like Finches and Canary's...here I added some froggies coz they're fun to paint too...

Cats, coffee, and cacti, that's pretty much the only substance in my soul.
