#Toronto waterfront is a great place to be in the summer. Better still, a ferry to the island! #urbansketching #inkandwash #inkandwatercolour #watercolor #sketchbook #artyear
A sketchbook is held up in front of the view depicted. A woman in a ball cap sips iced coffee on a bench. The bench is behind a boardwalk with a chain fence dividing it from the water on which a ferry passes in front of Toronto island. May all beings be light, and at ease.

This art is nearing completion. Line art is complete the moment you feel you can't add any more line art. I still feel I can add a few more line drawings, so I'll keep working on it a little longer.

Pen drawing a slight framed young woman with her head encased in a metal face mask with strange markings on it with greasy hair spread out over it with devices and wires coming off the helmet. Her arms are bound to her sides by a metal band as she sits cross-legged in a long, old and tattered white dress that flows over her legs. She is separate but a part of the strange devices and technologies surrounding her with two spines emerging from her shoulders almost like distorted wings, seeming to be more of the controlled than the controller of the environment.

Various stages of the making of Spotted Deer.
Always interesting to see work progress and take shape. Reason i love watching and enjoying not only making art, watching fellow artists works and collecting them!
Various stages of the making of Spotted Deer. Work in progress- Stage one- Working on the antlers and some part of the ear. Stage two- Working on the ears, eyes and some part of the neck. Stage three- Working on the forehead and nose. Stage four- Working on the rest of the neck and body. Spotted Deer Male (Axis axis) a handmade black and white charcoal drawing on paper. Two pointy antlers with ridges, two ears with black markings and white fur underneath the black markings. Two eyes, nose, half body with white spots. My signature on the right-hand corner. Paper placed on a green cutting mat.

Last day in Paris 😥 I feel like my style has developed some on this trip. Even if it hasn't, having the time to sketch devoid of the everyday grind and stess has been lovely #urbansketching #inkandwash #inkandwatercolour #inkandwatercolor #watercolor #painting #pleinair #France #travel #artyear
A sketchbook is held up in front of the view depicted. A few typical Parisian buildings are framed by trees, some bushes and an iron fence. A red and a blue awning punctuate the scene. May all beings know peace ✌️

While I was holding a solo exhibition, I was suddenly visited by a visitor who asked me to paint an artwork on the theme of human bones. I was surprised, but the client's enthusiasm won out and I accepted the order. This is the art I painted with that order.

Longing for an age long past a world long forgotten

#surreal #macabre #PenAndPaper #TraditionalArt #DarkSurrealism #DarkArt #Art #InkSky #B&Wart #GrimDark
Pen drawing of a large monolithic feminine figure in profile flowing to the left edge of the page and down into the land, their body made up of complex twisting forms looking like bone and stone with carved symbols and textures as it towers over two large pyramids while another in the distance looks out from the page on the right. Between the two figures is a white space that is under an arc of black with strange symbols as layers above the terminator between light and dark, the shapes looking like a language based on phases of the moon.
