sketchbook

This Banksia nut was found in southern Western Australia, one of the many varieties of Banksia found in Australia.

The forest nearby is full of baby banksias growing in poor gravelly/sandy soil which they do better in. The little one was growing on the edge of a gravel road.

The nearby pine tree has dropped quite a few pine cones, all in different states of decay. I enjoy looking at the different shapes, sizes and colours of each cone, each with its unknown story.

Something pertaining to twins and symmetry (figuratively speaking)…

Tucker Mandarin is very happy with his portrait! :-)

Narwhal time!

Witchy sharks in a ghost gallery

It is what is, as they say.

Video games and bees, because why not?

Happy Beltane!

New sketchbook time? Yes it is. Experimenting with a new size this time around... I call this one “Miniature Eyes”!

And so, we reach the end of another sketchbook here… it’s goodnight from me and Squirtle, for now!

Couldn’t forget to draw Vaporeon, could I?

Dragonite wishing you all a happy Chinese new year when it comes! :-)

Quick studies of animals that start with P, brainstorming for an alphabet project I'm doing.

Freehand sketching in ink, from a photo reference I found online.

Arctic whales for the ongoing arctic season...

Experimenting with making marks with unconventional drawing tools; a utility razor blade.

It's all about gastropods and the changing of seasons in my world right now. :-)

Another day? Another drawing, of course. :-)

Spooky whale time! And a touch of Mark Lanegan flavoured listening material also...

Day job blues... relatable?

Back at it...

Prospects for this month that’s not long started? Here’s hoping!

It's a sperm whale and underground hip-hop kind of day in my world right now.

Don't should all over yourself.

Here's to those lighter nights...

'tis all but a dream here...
