No particular order here. Normally I'm a bit fussy about posting my drawings in the order they were drawn, but I just have a lot of catching up to do. There is a story that the first person to organize his books alphabetically was thought to be off his nut. What kind of a crazy way is that or organize things. Well, here am, temporarily putting aside a strict chronological order of one of subject matter. Pictures with landscapy subjects in the same post, instead of having only the sequence they were drawn in in common. Has sense come to me at last?

No. I assure you it has not.

TTC Transfer.

These date from summer, after attending TypCon08 in Buffalo. Some Ideas were still spinning around in my head. Meantime, I started using public transit to get out to work in Scarborough. Good intentions aside, the real reason being I was forced to by the fact our car was in in the shop getting a new clutch.

Catching up. Book 7.

Well, gotta catch up again, don't I. The intention as been to post two the three times a week. Or at the very least, once a week. Eh!

These go back the June and TypeCon 2008 in Buffalo New York.

A recent project. (the making of)

The beginnings of one of a series of "house portraits"

I am about half way through book five of my Fabriano Artist's Journals. Every day, I try to make at least one drawing in these books. Some days I'll do as many as 8 or 10. Others none, and still others I will go back and complete a drawing begun earlier. Several doctrines apply to how these drawings are produced. Since the practice began as something to do while I waited for my wife, who had to work a lot of overtime at the time, I just
draw what ever is in front of me. Essentially, this boils down to a lot of "what ever was in front of me at the time".
