Here’s a change from the haircuts, which will return tomorrow! A great name for painters and decorators, but would the idea wear a little thin after a while. Continue reading It’s all in the name.
This drawing is from when I was still doing colour and had a complete set of magic markers. Doing a big clear out of old files I came across him lurking in there. The drawing was for a crossword magazine cover, the sort of big books that people take on holiday and populate bookshops in airports or any place where people have to kill time. Jumbo Crosswords! The art director who commissioned this and others was a fine fellow who loved to commission illustration and thank goodness these guys did. Sadly the owners of the magazine told him to buy … Continue reading Jumbo doing the wet look.
I had a little walkabout today trying to get my allocated steps in as my app tells me to. “Do more!” it says every day. At this rate, I’ll be walking all day. I wandered past this chap and asked him if he’d mind me doing a small video of him for my blog. Perhaps, he said. I thought at first he was being reticent about his undoubted talents, but he was simply telling me what he intended to sing next. I thought he was more than pretty good and promised to share.

This drawing reminds me of my chum Graham, who was my original business partner back in the days when all the drawing was done on paper.

Man with coloured pencil Naturally he looks nothing like this but that irepressible cheerfulness that this chap seems to have is perhaps what I am remembering.Graham’s hair has changed since those early days, but at least he has some, mine is just about hanging on. When I … Continue reading Frans Hals updated haircut
I used to work for a chap who looked a little like this. Head Warehouseman at a transport company. He hated students and told me so frequently. I was not desperately keen on him. He got his way in the end as I was asked to leave. I can’t imagine anyone wanting this mug on a mug, or anything for that matter. But if you insist: Mugs and stuff Continue reading Pencil tash
