thing

Narwhals, washi tape, patterns galore...or as I like to call it, a standard Friday night.

Saw this missing cat poster whilse out running errands the other day which started off with the sentence "Answers to Esme", and those words have been circling around in my head ever since. Naturally, the end product here had little to do with the finished artwork!

Eyes meeting trees, and a hint of surveillance.

Something about mermaids today! Got to love those fishy tailed sorts. :)

Rainy day assemblages.

Onwards to closure.

Midnight flavoured motivation.

An ode to the seas, sailing and other malarkey relating to that theme.

For things that go bump in the night (and day).

Rainy day creative goings-on.

New art supplies = the best excuse to get creative! Also, narwhals.

For all manner of mad monks.

All hearts are good ones (let's hope).

No idea what squid radio images look like, but here's something close.

Inspired by allsorts, as always :)

Just keep embracing your inner madness folks!

Essential quarantine creative goings-on.

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

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!

The word “backwards” in reverse would sound, I’m fairly certain, like something along the lines of ‘straw cab’ I’m presuming? Anyway, that was what randomly prompted me today to get cracking on with some art, heheheh.

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*

I've been working on portraits so much that it's taken up most of my drawing time. I miss the simpler things like trees and mountains so today at lunch I drew this tree.

Dabbling in something new and experimental(ish) because, why not?

Recents. And riffs on the elf thing.

I’ve encountered an awful lot of reprobates in my life so far. This piece is dedicated to a particular group of them...

Feh.

Marker on sketchbook paper

A little thanks to the works of Ariel Pink for this one. If you’re anything like I am, grooves like his always get you through your creative process

I was pretty much done with this Jane, but she hadn't told me what she was saying yet. Then my 18 year old daughter came in, and nervously said "Mom...I did a thing..." She proceeded to show me her freshly tattooed fingers. Suddenly, Jane spoke...

When your parents know what kind of souvenirs to bring you back from their vacations :-D
