Finally got round to watching Hunt For The Wilderpeople, after eons of procrastinating over doing so, and was well chuffed at how great it was! Gave me some much needed inspiration for some art as well, always a bonus. Can see what the Deadpool 2 guys saw in Julian Dennison that’s for sure, and of course Sam Neill was brilliant as well. Can’t be forgetting Taika Waititi either for directing it! Excellent job from all in my opinion :)

My take on this month’s “Draw Me A Robot” challenge!

Was initially going to try coffee painting with this one, but that clearly wasn’t happening... Hence the mentioning of divorce here, it being my expectations being split from the reality this time around. Still, things worked out in the end!

A spot of midnight improvisation and general creative spontaneity.

All hearts are good ones (let's hope).

Midnight madness/fun with artwork titles...

Happy June one and all.

Dinosaur doodling is the way of things today.

In a funk, but getting out of it quick.

Fantasy (of the more pronounced variety) is the order of things here.

Essential quarantine creative goings-on.

A more unusual interpretation of the mermay theme some of us are fond of. Also, new sketchbook time is fast approaching!

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!

I know nothing of the actress of the same name (although I do need to watch The Spirit Of The Beehive someday), but the words alone had “drawing title” written all over them, so yeah!

Been aching to draw one of these for a while now! Can’t knock goblin sharks, that’s for sure.

One week on from Beltane Fire Festival 2025 and it stills feel surreal that’s it for another year, you know? It’ll be nice to get back to some semblance of normality/whatever… For now? Have a gar on me :-P :-)

Current events mean retreating into my sketchbook is the way of things today, until it blows over(ish, emphasis on the -ish).

Like Bruce from Finding Nemo, they intended on having fish tonight...they succeeded.

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

For all manner of mad monks.

Another bus doodle I started last night, paused on, and finished up the moment I woke up… typical Thursday, I suppose.

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

Rainy day creative goings-on.

Sleep well David Bowie, and thanks for all the inspiration! Saw this comment on one of Iggy Pop’s music videos via YouTube and had to create something based around it, spelling mistakes and all...

Was itching to play along with the “Draw Me A Robot” challenge for a while now! Not much I can say about this, pretty spontaneous to say the least... Definitely wanted to add some sort of low fidelity edge to things though.

Rumblings and ramblings.

It’s a coffee and whale song kind of day (as per usual).

The title comes from words I saw in a dream this weekend past. Chinese food before bed = interesting results for the sleepy mind.

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

And so ends another sketchbook, and just in time to break in the new year! Happy new year folks :-)
