From the first book I bought on how to draw with colored pencils.

Acrylic & Chinese ink on paper

This is a drawing of the little joey bandicoot we found in his mama’s pouch after she had been hit by a car.

When you are in this forest, you are lost, until the sun rises again to show the path out of madness. This was one of the first large paintings, that I completed. Its a strange thing because when I was painting it, i distorted the horizon line.The line should be level by right.

I think I am improving at this exercise. I keep making mistakes and correcting, which is a good thing.

I studied this with the pot in front of me. At this point I lacked the ability to express myself.I did this a long time ago.

Coloured pencils

Welcome on board...

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

We weren’t getting enough social interaction in our quarantined space, so we decided to make another person, coming soon! This is my family as cats.

I am pretty sure I did this from a colored pencil how-to book.

This is inspired from the the soundtrack to Gladator the film. Its about how most people will end up in some kind of Colosseum, metaphorically speaking. Life will throw at us many problems. A sketch for a body of work. The black cross is a sword buried in the ground. Maybe its a symbol of peace.

Something simple, yet magical...definitely need to draw more kelpies here!

Binge-watched “Bridgerton” last weekend and paid the price for it all day Saturday. The drawing is based on my wife's picture of me on the couch sleeping off my bad decision. HB, 2B Staedtler mechanical pencils on 8.5” x 11” acid-free sketchbook.

I was listening to Satan's Host and there was a song that gave me the idea to draw this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnDzK3_Q7MQ
