Boy

Not exactly mind-blowing but hey, they can’t all be gems. Feels like a good one to start another year of sketches.

The Freak

Where did this blue flower come from?

Grave

I love this drawing. It was quick and spontaneous and captures something very real. My wife even stopped what she was doing when she looked over at my sketchbook and commented on it (she seldom does that). I’ve just finished reading The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. It’s really excellent. This drawing isn’t really meant to be Bod, or a scene from the book, but it’s definitely inspired by some of the emotions conjured by reading it.

Theo Writing

I drew this guy reading and decided that it looked kind of like my son, Theo, who is only 9 months old. I think it’s the hair. Anyway, I thought it a funny picture so coloured it up and here it is.

The Walk

I kinda like this one in a quiet sort of a way.

Untitled

I like this drawing but wasn’t sure what to do with it. None of the backgrounds I tried worked particularly well so I’ll just let her sit on a bright yellow one. Hope you like her.

Miffed Bunny

A rabbit who looks a little miffed. Not my most interesting sketch I suppose, but I really like the expression on his (or her — it’s hard to tell with rabbits) face.
