Just some disparate doodles created during February 2021, using multiple black ink biros and some HB graphite pencil for toning.

Steve is a musician and head sound engineer for Microsoft in Seattle. I drew him after visiting, trying to capture a bit o the otherworldliness of his music.

Tim was a great model. He started shy and then became emboldened when the women in the class wanted him to return soon.

Instead of a sketchbook I draw - doodle - on a table top sized sheet of 100lb paper. This allows me to cross-pollinate visual ideas more easily.

Pencil on Moleskine

Part of a huge doodle. Started as a doodle while I talked to a friend on the phone. She was one of those non-stop-don't-interupt-me talkers. I got hours of work done while on the phone. It ended up being purchased by our local public gallery for $4,000 bucks. Not bad! And I may use it in a future children's book.

Done in graphite and watercolor. Something I like to do is take everyday mundane objects and try to make them unnerving, etc.

Graphite and Watercolor. I enjoy making the splatter watercolor marks and I find myself attempting to add them to drawings that it doesn't really go with. lol oh well.

This is a section of a very large drawing. The entire drawing was a massive doodle that could be used in a children's book one day.

Chandra was a wonderful model who posed for me in North Vancouver years ago.

This one took a bit of time, but I hope you all like it. This is a picture of "Grogu" or baby Yoda as some call him. I used graphite and charcoal for this picture.

This is a drawing for a poetry book. Sometimes I do the drawing first and then write the poetry.
