Go Figure! Sketch Night at Rainy Day

 

This past Saturday evening was another round of live model drawing at Rainy Day Art Supply in Grosse Pointe Woods, with our model, Madison. Don't ask me who she was dressed as, probably some anime character, but she did a great job! 

"Beavis" And "Butthead"

This here is a recent commission for my Substack Rewards, as I'm calling them for the moment. This one goes along with the Sh!tshow theme, as it portrays Matt Gaetz and Jim Jordan as Beavis and Butthead. Personally, I think that B n B were far more productive and useful. 

A Thresher Shark Sketch

Today's #SundayFishSketch theme are fish that have unique, odd, fascinating tails. And my unique tail selection is that of a thresher shark. A tail like no other... unless you're another thresher shark, that is.

Nick Cave

So, some fine folks have generously contributed to my Substack newsletter and since I don't really know just how to navigate the 'for paid subscriber' material, I am treating these contributors as someone would a Patreon Page. And that is by providing them with an original piece of art. I decided to do them in the same manner as my Sh!tshow book, since I am having fun, for the moment, in doing so.

The first of these, a Nick Cave (sans The Bad Seeds) portrait, was to a fine young man from Detroit, who then gave this to his wonderful wife as a Christmas present. This was a fun one to do and am glad that it was received well. Always is.

A Michigan To Texas Birthday Wish 2023

 

This year's birthday pic for my pal Sandra down in Texas is an extra wide rainbow over Lake St. Clair from this past fall. Every year Sandra collects pics for her birthday, so Happy Birthday, Sandra!

Merry Christmas 2023!

 

And a Happy New Year, ya filthy animals!

A Recent Star Wars Commission

ink and markers on Bristol 

I did this Star Wars commission of the Anakin and Padme wedding scene from Attack of the Clones this past summer, which was given as a wedding gift, I do believe. I have heard nothing, so I am going to assume that it was well received. I hope. I would have preferred a fight scene between General Grievous and Obi-Wan, but...

I accepted the challenge.
