A quick cartoon sketch done last night while watching Crime Watch. Acrylic Inks and pen, including sepia pen, which looks suspiciously like orange.

I’ve recently started walking to work instead of driving, it takes about an hour and a half and I worked out I’d walked about the distance of a marathon last week, its great, I listen to drive time and am never in a traffic jam, also it now means with all the extra exersize I don’t need to go to the gym which I never got roudn to joining.

Also the walk goes straight past my favourite pub, er…… enough said !

Portraits at BBC Cov and Warks

bbc exhibition

No blogging for a while due to trying to get my self organised to hang up some portraits at the BBC Coventry and Warwickshire HQ in Coventry. The reception area is used for training and internet access for the public, I quite like it not being a gallery as theres always loads of people wandering in and about so they should get noticed by a few people.

They are there for the next 3 weeks if you want to see them in the flesh or you can see the whole project digitally on
the Random Portraits section of my main site . Also there’s a portrait painting tutorial in my tutorial section.

Naked Breakdancing

The last of this batch of the photo montage old man illustration efforts, this is a picture of the world naked breakdancing champion .

I had another rather odd dream last night, I was typing into my computer text and all that was coming out was a complete load of rubbish (naked breakdancing). Anyway then I turned it off and back on and my virus checker said I had a virus and the virus was a video of a talking walrus, then I woke up and a man came in the house to measure for my double glazing.

Surprisingly he didn’t mention naked breakdancing once.
