A middle aged carpenter enjoying my sketchbook when I am not swinging a hammer. An absolute beginner with pen and pencil.
A few really quick #watercolour #portraits from this evening. So much to learn.

Drove to the Canadian Shield for the last warm snow free day of November (assuming forecasts hold course) Rode my homebuilt full suspension fat tire bike for several hours on really rugged trails. Worked very well. Also painted in the back seat of the truck.

I been experimenting and trying to use up a beginner’s paint kit, which is getting increasingly challenging as I run out of my favourite colours. Mostly not liking anything I have made.

5 minute Pigeon. I love it. Also, we offered trick or treaters candy or a potato (I am a lot slow on these goofy trends) and was delighted at how many kids wanted potatoes. So fun.

Kind of all over the place lately. Playing with big brushes and wet wet wet. Wanting to be less heavy handed but haven’t figured out how to get there yet.

A few recents #sketchbook pages. I’m still playing with lower cost #watercolour paints and as usual, in art as in most of life #ihavenoideawhatiamdoing

Was trying to figure out how to make the hair have a glow, like sunlight behind it. Much to figure out.

Yesterday after work I had an idea for an alternative sort of saint. Kind of inspired by classic religious iconography but imagining a few different people

My kid looked at this bird and said it looked like me. Not sure I see a resemblance…

Had a hard time making these plums shine. Starting this while riding in the back seat of a bumpy pick up truck likely didn’t help.
