"Sweet Caroline

Good times never seemed so good

I've been inclined

To believe they never would

Oh, Lord, no!"

Training myself to draw has been an interesting exercise. I studied the workds of Nicolas de Crecy, the Rat Rod artists, Stephan Marjoram, R.Crumb, S.Clay Wilson and many others. While I certainly will never develop the kind of talent they had, this has been a good way to "kill time" during the various periods of lockdown here in France during the Covid Pandemic.

Location: home

 

Note: *twitch*...it's kind of a nightmare of mine.

Over a year ago when we were confined to avoid spreading a potentially deadly virus, I knew much of my photographic adventures would need to be curtailed. In similar time, something by Stephan Marjoram inspired me to fill a bit of time doing something creative. So I took up ink drawing. Just to see what I could do. And with zero photography projects in the queue, I wanted to fill this space with something. So here goes. I start out be aping M.Marjoram and, as you will later see, I take inspiration from many other sources.

This Treo snapshot hardly does justice to the intricate, amazing ink drawings by Alessio, the grip on the short film Brent was in.

Result: Day 2

 

Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Sakura Micron 005 & Faber-Castell Albrecht Durer watercolour pencils in a Stillman & Birn Zeta series sketchbook

 

Location: apartment in Barcelona

 

Note: The following drawings are reflections of my trip to Spain, Dublin and Scotland. It's a combination sketchbook / journal. Not all of the pages contain writing ....those are yet to be filled in because while I did make a point of doing a drawing every day I really didn't have time to also fill in the blanks with words...those are to come. I just needed to get these posted so I could get my daily drawings back on track. :)

"Lonely boy, you are the one

Lonely boy, your chance has come

Destiny gonna put you to the test

Face the music and disregard the rest..."

I asked my favorite comic book artist of all time, Paul Gulacy, if I could commission him to do an original sketch of "Shang-Chi: Master of Kung Fu", which had a 10 year run starting in the early 70s. Rumor is that Marvel Comics may do a movie based on my favorite non super-human hero!
