Just recently bought a very cool compendium Randolph Caldecott’s picture books.  It’s full of amazing illustrations, one of which I have shabbily counterfeited here.

The USC/UCLA game is coming up this weekend. Â Here’s my meager attempt to fly the colors. Â Well, one of them anyway.
(Actually, this had nothing to do with the game — just  a quick, late-night Flickr sketch.  Based on a photo by Gypsy Flores.)

A couple months ago, I was in Austria along with several good friends. Here are three of them, as photographed there by a fourth, the great Sarah Welch.  The likenesses are kinda iffy, but hey, it’s “Sketch 365,” not “Perfect Reproduction 365.”  Oh, and if the one in the center looks familiar…

Another late night where I didn’t know what to draw. Â This was just a quick sketch based on a photo found online.

It’s been a long time since I last played Pictionary.  So this evening, I decided to grab a card and see if I could draw all five things on it in one sketch.  So, for your viewing pleasure, here’s a 1) Ragged 2) Lawyer 3) Choking on a 4) Pop Tart while on a 5) Maiden Voyage.

Portrait of the artist as a young man ready for some delicious Thanksgiving dinner.

We’re heading for Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow at my wife’s family’s place. They’ve hosted everyone for years, and always do a great job. We were thinking about getting them some kind of thank-you gift, and then my wife came up with the idea of me sketching something for them. They’re labrador people, so hopefully they’ll like it.

My friend from yesterday’s sketch was actually admitted to the hospital for surgery. Thankfully it went well, but since he was drugged up with a dead arm, I went by the hospital and picked up his car for him. For better or worse, it’s the absolute opposite of what I’m used to driving.

…or at least try not to break any more fingers. Just a friendly piece of advice for my workmate, who is now a makeshift Vulcan.

Had my grandmother in town for a visit, and we spent the day doing lots of grandma type things (botanical gardens, tea, etc.). Â As enjoyable as it was, at the end I felt like I needed to do something uniquely masculine to balance it all out. Â Unfortunately, there were no grizzly bears around that I could punch in the face, so I had to settle for sketching it.
