found sketch

I find these loose drawings done on any scrap paper... usually forgotten that I've done them. This is Dan at one of my coffee shop haunts here in Vegas. Done in biro pen, i just love biro for some reason..think it picks up even the faintest lines that I want draw.

Think I might later digitally paint this, loose watercolor and chalk are favorite brushes. Digital has an image problem. Some folk think the computer does the work:(

Love this book....

For all inspiring artist and illustrators...anyone infact. I've always been a big fan of the sketchbook because it truly is where it all starts. The everyday meanderings are put down on paper :)

My eldest son hanging out in the coffee shop whilst I'm try and figure out ..actually the last illustration shown here."I know a secret ..Ha ha ha"

Became interested in him when I became stuck on drawing hands.

Once in a while I see somebody that I just have to draw, this lady at a local coffe shop became my pen study ...later digitally painted.

Danny boy

Took a coffee moment and gave little Dan a piece of paper. I began to realise as I sketch him ..how MUCH HE MOVES. Well he is 3 1/2yrs old!
