Daily Drawing 685⁠ Odette made this amazing cover of AC/DC's song "Thunderstruck" for Like a Version. ⁠My most recent music discovery. What about you, discovered anything interesting lately?

Seemingly trapped indoors and inside your head indefinitely, the possibility of living a normal life after COVID seems like a fevered dream. Still one of my favourite drawings from 2020 and a technique breakthrough. Ballpoint Pen on Archival 8.5" x 11" paper

SteveO with his arms up. An old ballpoint pen sketch from several years ago. Red Bic pen layer converted to black and white.

Try to calm down. But it seems like a cycle. Relaxed, time will heal and tomorrow sun still rise.

The Queer Old Man is a solid wood puppet head created more than 50 years ago if not more. The eyes of the character are a radiant blue and the carved structure of the face is expressive and bold.

A charcoal study of Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s last known work and his masterpiece. An appropriate post for today.

Escaping daily life through music immersion. 2023, Ballpoint Pen on 9” x 12” Archival paper.

Marker art of Captain America zombified.

One of my favourite series. I'm trying to strike the right balance between the abstract and the realism, and I think I try to do that through my use of colours. It's the most rewarding feeling when you use unexpected colours and they come together somehow! Acrylics, watercolour pens and posca markers.

Sketchbook #10

Hand pose 8 with one detail and work progression shots - started with the red pen layer, then green and finally the yellow ink (feature image).

Skethin'

I guess this is an okay start.
