pen and ink

More Kirby! Because when the pen is just as mighty as his sword, you know what needs to be done :-)

Everybody's in a hurry to get outside; can't wait for spring to get here

Pokemon fever!

Ink, charcoal and carbon pencil on paper

A narwhal! Because, why not?

It's a yin-yang kind of thing on the go here.

What it says on the tin, as per usual.

18x24 watercolor paper, technical pen and probably pastel pencil or just regular pencil blended with a q-tip. This was done for a friend who owned a wine and spirits shop, so I guess it's a vine. Or a tree. Whichever....

from the "Présence - Seeds" series.

Narwhal time!

The product of a collaboration with a very good friend of mine's; I did my usual squid thing and he supplied the Mr Oizo homage-themed collage bits! Check out his work here: https://flynnsego.bandcamp.com/

As it says!

"English as She is Spoke" is a delightful example of incompetence and bad judgement. Jose da Fonseca and Pedro Carolina set out to write a Portuegese-English phrasebook. The only problem was that they didn't speak any English. They did know some French and armed with French-English phrasebook, dictionaries and enthusiasm they brought forth this phrasebook. Mark Twain was an early admirer of this book. "Nobody can add to the absurdity of this book, nobody can imitate it successfully, nobody can hope to produce its fellow; it is perfect, it must and will stand alone: its immortality is secure." I need some levity and silliness. I hope you do too. Esperái ôu espere úm pôuco. Stop a little.

Starting a new sketchbook but that dreaded Blank Page is mocking my hopes and dreams again...seems the only way to beat it is to doodle about it and laugh....")
