Vacation. Woke up early in the morning from persistent knocking. Woodpeckers we’re trying to get to carpenter bee’s larvae. https://www.instagram.com/p/CCR0deVBrqz/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Watercolour, ink and gouache on a graphic design students work from Leipzig 1923. Created during lockdown in response to Corona. For sale.

This old car suits in the exact same place in my neighborhood.

This just happened, and that's all I can say really.

One of my latest pen and ink colouring page I have created for my latest YouTube video-https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-JivhOLzEax6ovOLAUwxxA/videos

This time last year I was in the midst of starting off my (then) new sketchbook... And what do I find myself doing tonight? Sticking to the same script with yet another one, that’s what!

Next page in my journal. Derwent Inktense pencils plus a little white gel pen.

Two page spread in my journal. Watercolour plus white gel pen. I added text later.

Acrylic and white gel pen. Another page for my journal.

This is another page from my journal. I will add text later. Acrylic paint and white gel pen.

Inspired by reading a subreddit discussing the early works of Animal Collective.

Once the curve flattens and we can all go about our usual businesses without potentially killing one another, let’s not forget all the good habits and so on we’ve picked up from staying the feck at home! Some sort of a summer will come, rest assured.

Blue moons and the usual loons.

The title for this one was inspired by a remark the DJ Marc Riley made on his BBC 6 Music show earlier in the week. Couldn’t resist getting inspired! As we self-isolate and/or minimise going out unless we feel the absolute need to, as Freddie of the Mercury once sang, “radio, someone still loves you ❤️”

Tonight’s tangent lead to this.

May any aliens watching us worthy folks take us somewhere not so disease-riddled.

Kicking things off with the new sketchbook! And what a time to do so... Coronavirus is rampant everywhere it seems, however big or small. If self-isolation (even for just a bit, wherever you are) is the way to combat this then I suggest making the most of this time. *Captain Obvious groove*

The final page in my current sketchbook! Stay tuned after the break folks.

For whenever you feel knocked down, but know you’ll be up again in no time at all.

...versus what? Who knows.

Something unicorn-shaped(ish).

Resting up before another big season starts!

Uploading my first piece. I call it the "the sad cat"
