Draw More! 🇨🇦🏔🎨😎

Being silly ahead of Halloween…first, some who got into the witch’s brew, then one of the Kewpie Koven, and a zombie chicken. #inkdrawing

Black pencil sketch to practice hand-eye coordination. #birdart

Sketches for spooky season…in ink. #inkdrawing

I can’t tell if he’s thinking about a particularly difficult spell…or if he just got a bad batch of mead. Hmmmm.😉 #pencildrawing

It’s a howling wind out there, so it’s birds on the drawing board. Happy Saturday all!

One last page in the little sketchbook so I gave it over to a spooky season drawing.

This weekend, I give thanks for living in a pretty darn good country - not perfect, but better than a lot of other places I’ve seen. A beautiful land, with many good people who genuinely want to help fix the things that are less than perfect. Here are just a few of my favourite Canadian things:

Watercolour sketch. Happy Friday all😃! #birdart

Ingredients…line drawing with Italian inspiration.

Micron pen drawing of an Eastern Phoebe flycatcher - based on a photo from feederwatch.org. #birdart

Pencil drawing of a Junco, just for fun. They’re SO cute! #birdart

Overdue to post another scribbled landscape…this one is Cascade Mountain in Banff. #mountainart #natureart 🖖🏼🇨🇦

I have a sketchbook that is alleged to be for watercolours, but behaves abysmally when you get it wet. So I am using it for throwaway drawings, these are from this week. #crappypaperart

Another piece of scrap cardboard sacrificed to portrait practice. Too hot to do much besides drawing!🥵

Have you ever visited Niagara Falls? I used to find it hypnotic to watch the water roar over the lip of the falls. I wondered what ever drove those people who rode over the falls in barrels…but it’s a frighteningly alluring view. #niagarafalls #natureart #watercolour

I went back to the sparrow drawing to play with some colour washes…rainy day amusement. #birdart #natureart

We have lost a great artist and a personal inspiration of mine, the incomparable Drew Struzan. The light in his illustrations was exquisite and his movie posters are iconic.
