happy

Is that summer already?

A line taken from the current book I’m digesting… Finally reading the My Neighbor Totoro book my girlfriend got me for my birthday. Slowly getting through but enjoying it immensely!

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

Part two, this time with narwhals!

Part one of two! First, sharks…

Into darker(ish) territories we go… or not! Still, a bit of The Cure may have inspired this one :-)

Seemed like a good name for it, that’s all I can say about it really!

This time with squids!

Witchy sticker time again!

Went out, topped up on art supplies and foxtrotted off on an adventure with my girlfriend. Standard stuff!

Pretty much what it says on the tin!

I introduced Wrecks awhile back as my anxiety and depression. The flip side to him is my happy, fun loving side. This little guy's job is to keep things positive and build me up. I'd like to introduce my good friend, Buil (Bill).

Finding random things to photograph on my photo jaunts is one thing but when you find abandoned Pokemon stickers to use for your art? Yes please!

Not your average cat cafe, but it’ll do :-)

Sperm whale time!

Rediscovered the German language versions of Peter Gabriel’s third and fourth albums (terrific btw) and come ‘Schock den Affen’ was intrigued at how the German word for ‘monkey’ sounds a hell of a lot like orphan… of course that might just be my ears, you know?

Spooky things and music time!

Casually racing through it with all the drawings… hence why it’s new sketchbook time already, hahaha! As we leave spring behind, meet “Summer Eyes”.

Time flies when you’re having fun… and so concludes another sketchbook!

Robots and whales united against transphobia!

“It seems that, like plants, we do need the shit of others for nutrients.” - Robert Hughes.

When your girlfriend makes a random remark and that gives you incentive to create… not that I need much prompting!

Goblin shark time again!

Time to check in with the hammerheads…

Reflecting on catching up (albeit briefly) with old friends despite the bleak circumstances that brought us back together…

Squids with a spiritual side.

Inspired by one of the bus routes I take back home from my Judo class in the evenings and how long said journey takes in terms of minutes… you’d think it was a quick trip but I assure you it’s not!

I woke up at 5am(ish) last Sunday and not settling back to rest, I switched my radio on and hoped for the best. Next thing I know I’m half awake listening to one of Yo La Tengo’s more drone oriented songs. The track itself was 8 minutes long but felt longer… of course, this gave me ideas. What do you expect?

Precisely that!
