Reflecting on the current pandemic, only to realise things this time last year gave plenty of us something to gripe about too... How times seemed simpler then.

Keeping things together and setting records straight.

Narwhals, washi tape, patterns galore...or as I like to call it, a standard Friday night.

When you find a mondegreen in one of your favourite Magnetic Fields songs and it sets off your creativity... Can’t be only one mishearing things here? Stephin Merritt sure knew how to mumble back in the ‘90s, that’s for certain: https://youtu.be/UGNKhVJbDM8

Gone to Gallifrey.

Due to COVID-restrictions, Edinburgh urban sketchers have been sketching virtually in Catalonia using Google street view. Here’s one of my contributions. It’s somewhere in Amposta ... unfortunately, didn’t take note of the actual street :O Pencil, brush pens and posca on coloured A4.

Living in the moment...

Caffeine rushes are essential to creativity (at least here!).

Hoot-hoot and all that, hehehe.

Back to more surreal programming.

Possibly inspired by current events.

The race heats up!

Dump those dirty oranges, if you know what I mean (and I'm sure most of you do)...

Day of the Dead vibes all around here!

Meal time for the jellyfish.

Young boobs vs. after breastfeeding

More toffee tinted, if anything.

Saw this missing cat poster whilse out running errands the other day which started off with the sentence "Answers to Esme", and those words have been circling around in my head ever since. Naturally, the end product here had little to do with the finished artwork!

Eyes meeting trees, and a hint of surveillance.

Pink aliens in lieu of pink elephants here.

Midnight madness/fun with artwork titles...

Never dumb down for the dumbed down folks.

Courage the Cowardly Dog Show , anyone ? Anyone ? Just ,me? Okay ...

Surreal folks in surreal worlds.

Aliens seeking company and respite...

Romantic birds and their narwhal pals.

Rumblings and ramblings.

New sketchbook time! Onwards to new doodling-flavoured adventures... Keeping it simple to start things off (as is custom).

And that finishes things off with my current sketchbook! Here's to what the next one brings :)

A couple of beers, thoughts in my head about lockdown easing and Radiohead lingering in the background while I work = stuff like this.
