1920s doodles


Random Doodles (contains nudity)

A few random coloured pencil doodles to christen a new sketch book. No real deeper meanings here, I'm afraid. Just a bit of fun.

All In A Day's Work

Someone asked me the other day just how much I draw over the course of a day. I realized that I had absolutely no idea. A lot, I supposed. So, I decided to take an average day (not one where I was working on a major project, or specifically going somewhere to draw) and scan every sketch I did over the course of that day. I may have lost a few scraps of paper, though I did my best to keep active track of all the places I was doodling.

It's still fairly early in the evening, but here's what I have for today:








...people should really stop leaving pens anywhere in my general vicinity.

Dracula sketches

Dracula is one of my very favourite novels. Yet, somehow, I've never really done a serious drawing for it. Plenty of random doodles in the margins of notebooks, but no finished pieces. I've decided to do something about that. So, here are a few thumbnail sketches of ideas I'm considering. We'll see how it goes.

How Do You Do

Yet another random page from my sketchbook:

Galina and the Wolf II


Another quick sketch of Galina. I may not have explained who she was in the early drawing. Galina is a character in a story I'm working on, who sets out to ask a boon from the queen of Winter. Along the way she gets help from a shapeshifting grey wolf shamelessly stolen from Russian folklore.

...mostly, I just really like drawing that coat.
