I perfected him.

I had so much fun with the crappy watercolours, I dug out my untouched decent paints and had a proper go at him.

jimmer.artPaddington the ReaperPaddington in his role as the bringer of death in a classic watercolour style. Printed on A5 archival 230gsm matt photo paper.

He's now in the shop!

I’ve never understood why Paddington is used as a psychopomp for celebrities, but I thought he’d make a good #death for #drawtober

My first time properly having a go with watercolour. I’ve got quite the collection that’s been gathering dust, thought I should give it a go.

I don’t use my acrylic markers a lot, so I thought I’d justify their existence and do a quick #autumn leaf, finishing off with pencil, because why not. #drawtober

Margaret Hamilton - the actress who played the wicked Witch of the West #witch #drawtober

Last one today, Snow White’s poisoned #apple #drawtober

Still playing catch-up, here’s a #moth #drawtober

So, drawing every day didn’t work out. I’ve got some catching up to do. Have some #books #drawtober

I thought the #mushroom would look a bit lonely so did a #fairy too. #drawtober

Almost forgot to #drawtober today. Have a quick #candle.

Was planning on trying a different style but my black marker is running out and being streaky, so it evolved into a messy scribble thing and I think it worked out. #crow #drawtober

A quick #vampire #drawtober

I’m quite proud of this guy. #frog #drawtober

A quick #pumpkin #drawtober

Decided to give an October prompt thing a go this year to try new things. Let’s see how long it lasts. #drawtober #forest

I already had a set of six of these and love them, so nabbed the 24 set at 25% off.

It was Christopher Reeve’s birthday last Friday. Had this in my head, but only got round to it now.

19 Sept

It’s #Batman day. So here’s a Batman.

17 Sept

It was Peter Falk’s birthday yesterday. I’ve not done a 100% marker sketch before so thought I’d ’quickly’ give it a go at 10:30pm.

15 Sept

Out with the old and in with the new.

An annoying child.

Bored. Did a thing.

Happy birthday, Tim Curry. I tried, but it’s late in the day and I could spend another hour on this and not make much difference.

19 Apr

These pastel pencils work for me some days and other days don’t. I think it’s the paper. I need to get pastel mat.

11 Mar

It’s the birthday of Douglas Adams, so I thought I’d give him a go.

12 Mar

I rejigged it last night because I thought his hand looked too much like a foot, plus some other tweaks. I really should wait before posting because this always happens.

21 Jan

FAO @oddthisday.bsky.social Looking for something to draw, I remembered your post the other day.

21 Jan

Since it’s his birthday today, I thought I’d have a go at David Lynch.

11 Jan

I got a larger pack of charcoals, with more colours, and wanted to try using a bright colour paper. I think it’s worked out nicely.

15 Jan

I did some touchups and finally got round to fixing it and the spray has really dulled it down. I’m a bit annoyed about that.

14 June 2025

A while back, I came up with the idea for a series of 8 drawings I wanted to do and excitedly went straight into the first one… then stopped. Tonight, I thought I’d continue, and bashed out the second. I just finished, and noticed the dates. Two down, six to go, expect the complete set by 2037.

14 Oct 2025

I’m speeding up, knocked this one out in about two and a half hours. Three down, five to go.

10 Jan

Two in a week! Five down, three to go. It’s only taken me two years. I’m on a roll.

12 Oct 2025

Frogs together strong. Inspired by events in Portland.

7 Sept 2025

Watched The Monkey the other day, a dark comedy horror about an evil mechanical monkey. Very good of you like Final Destination style stuff. 🐵 🥁

7 Sept 2025

I used some new coloured charcoal pencils I bought a while back that I hadn’t got round to trying out yet.

HUMAN ARTISTS, use only one piece to convince people to follow you #artshare

This was meant to be a Christmas present, but I was ill and only got round to doing it last week. As they’ve now got it in the mail, I can post it here - My dad and his wife as gnomes (which she loves).

Right, let’s bring everything up to date. A couple of weeks ago, I drew this thing for my daughter. If you play Fortnite, you know what this little guy is.

Forgot to post this a while back. It was my nephew’s birthday and he’s a big fan of Fallout, so I turned him into the Sole Survivor. I knocked it out in an evening, but wish I’d had more time, it doesn’t feel right and I don’t quite know why. - 100724

Tested out my new fountain pen, but still not brave enough to commit to using watercolours, it seems a lot of faff, so coloured this with markers. - 100524
