These Boots


Pencil sketch, guess it was inevitable that I'd draw these eventually.

UK's Mr Miyagi


A friend of mine who got me into Bonsai.

A bit parky


Another colleague at work , dont think he was too impressed, one of my better exaggerations though I think.

Muscle PC


This is work in progress but as a record of it and in the hope of inspiring me to finish it I've put it up here.

Anyone for tennis

This is another charcoal from the loads I did one night ,
see older posts for the others , Bruce Lee, Robbie Williams, etc.

I know this has faults but I guess I'm going to put all my efforts up on here good or bad .

Like the other this took around 15-20 mins to do.

Orange and Apple


I was really happy with this until I added the shadows and it seemed to get away from me.
This was done at the class today, 2 hrs , watercolour but we were only allowed to use three colours , obviously we could mix these to create other ones.
The colours I used were Cadmium Red deep hue, Intense blue and a yellow.

10 min drawing

Bruce Lee


Thi is the one i'm not too keen on.
These last four posts were all drawn in one night of experiments with charcoal, took about 20 mins with each one , Ronaldo one a bit longer.

Bruce Lee


This is one of two I did, like this one better but thought I'd put both up for viewing, by who I dont know, who am I talking to anyway ?


I also did these because I remember my older sister doing a Bruce Lee pic at school which was so good someone wanted to buy it.

Ronaldo


Another charcoal effort, thistime of the Real Madrid soon to be soccers first Billionaire , Ronaldo.


Robbie , I think ?


This is one of several drawings I did one night watching TV about 3mths ago, I think this is supposed to be Robbie Williams but looks a bit like Matt Damon so am not too sure now.


Ah well.

Muddy


This is one of my very early ones from last year and is available as a cop card.

Very cartoony. I added some colour for the card but forgot to keep that as a scan

Sethy


Once you could say that if you ever needed a pen you should ask a Police officer.


Sign of the times now its done on a PDA.
Not one of my better efforts but thought I'd put them all up.

Keep off T'Grass


Back to my caricatures here with one of the boss, hence the pose.


Bob Marley




Reggae music legend Bob Marley.




This seems a bit lopsided , its one of my early attempts with charcoal.

I'm The Doctor but not that one


The very bad tempered Doc Martin (Clunes), I've watched this programme from its very beginning (4th series now I think)and how daft am I, the morning after doing this drawing I was sat looking at it when I suddenly realised that Doc Martin could also be Doc Marten as in the boot !

However having looked at t'web I see no connection no matter how small, it must be just one of those things.

Still now I know what was bugging me all this time.

I'm not an Arsenal fan but this pic caught my eye in the Daily Mirror newspaper and thought it showed all the emotion of a player getting a goal.
