Drawing: Pen/Ink

Ihis entity would appear to have excellent camouflaging skills. The origin of that ability could be answered by the title. Or perhaps it is an answer to the question, "for the love of all that is holy, why?"...

This is from a frighteningly old sketchbook that I unearthed from the catacombs. The papyrus might as well have crumbled before I scanned this, but it survived the digitization process unscathed, apparently.  read more »

This is something that I sketched recently when I was trying out a new set of Letraset markers. I am in love with these things. To me they feel better than any other marker I've ever used. Great for drawing, but on the pricey-side at around $5 bucks a pop. They are worth it though, in my summation.

Another old doodle that I found in a sketchbook. Rough, but I like the stilt-legs look, it works. But man does it make the arms look stumpy! Known to make the fingers tense up awkwardly as well.

This image illustrates a cro-magnon man or other barely evolved man-beast strutting around with a large stick-like weapon and with a strange looking animal/thing on his back for company.

A parade of identically-moustached individuals for your consideration and amusement. WTF is up with those weird hand gestures? Hilariously awkward and lame. Good stuff.

This sketch is from a really old journal (maybe 15 years old or so). I don't do a lot of this "fantasy" type stuff anymore, but I was into it as a kid, for sure.

Something I drew in an office meeting the other day. I don't normally draw animals, so this was interesting to me to see where I was at with that without practicing. I'm sure I would do less well on a whole-body rendering of a tiger. I will have to try it another time.

"I must have coffee in the morning or else I freak out!!!".

Enough said.

This is the second in the Screamin' Jay Hawkins (7/18/1929 – 2/12/2000) tribute series. The first is linked to below. Came across this and a huge treasure trove of old journals, sketches, loose art pieces etc. in a filing cabinet in my garage earlier today. Looks like I'll be getting friendly with my scanner again for the next while.
