I’ll just do a little more…

On that last Mondoodle. Which leads me to a question. When is a picture finished? How do you know when to stop? Sometimes I know I go on too far with a picture – there are often lots of points when you think - that’s pretty good now, I should stop… I’ll just do a [...]

Mondoodle 8-2-2010

Just as I hoped, it was lovely to paint again on Sunday at the market. Hello to all the new people I met there! It was a beautiful day. I finally filled the frames on the wall of the rabbit-cafe picture and gave myself another indulgent hour on it this morning before it got too [...]

Mondoodle 01-02-10

I love seeing kids when they’ve obviously dressed themselves. Tutus, footy socks, odd hats and fairy wings. The boys do it too, I’m happy to say. I have yet to see a goth couple’s kid but I would hope they’d have access to even more outlandish garb. Brilliant! Reminds me of parties in my uni [...]

Mondoodle 25-01-10

On Saturday night Peter and I went back to the Paris Cat. A birthday soiree for me. We caught the tram in and walked through the city. I brought a mounted print of the sketch from the last time we were there… and as a lovely surprise they gave us a beautiful bottle of champagne. [...]

A funny little sea picture… It’s interesting – this scanned at a different angle to the way I drew it and as I rotated it I realised that the orientation of the page completely changed the scene. So which one to choose – diving, rising, or swimming to the left? Drawn late Monday evening, Monday 17th January [...]

In this twilight moment of 2009 I wish you happiness and great beginnings. I hope you all get a brief respite from work – I’m having one and it is much needed. Next year is going to be exciting and challenging and I’m looking forward to it. But I’ll think about that soon. For now, here’s [...]

Mondoodle 14-12-09

I started this on the 11th December, when Pete and I were in the Paris Cat jazz club. A beautiful lady was singing, the lights were low and we were celebrating Pete’s birthday with cocktails and fine wine. A magical night. Most of this was drawn in the semi-dark and finished off today. Paris Cat, Melbourne [...]

Mondoodle 7-12-09

So I found myself today on Lygon st in Carlton, having mistaken the date for another and arrived, all aflutter, for a meeting that wasn’t. Earlier I had lost a notebook with story ideas and pictures then found it at the gym. I had, in between these events, inspected my recycling twice, come to know [...]

This one is a work-in-progress. I’ll keep updating it as I go. It’s in my current Moleskine sketchbook, started today. Lounge, 8pm, Monday 23 November 2009 I’m not getting to cafes enough to draw so this is wish-fulfillment!
