Sketcharoonees!

I've been sort of on and off busy with the project they gave me that award for (what award? you know, the one paid for by Hema-merchandise). Mostly I've been sketching and writing. Jotting down ideas. Thinking of stories. It's turning into a bit of a stew. Things go in, ideas from weeks ago suddenly float the top again slightly changed. I'm having fun with it so far. So I thought I'd put up some stuff. This is all from one story. It's going to serve as something of an introduction. It's not finished, because I'm still brooding on how to colour it in, but here ya go.

Mo' Music

I reckon it doesn't hurt to post this here clip I shot at the Motel Mozaique music festival. It's Alela Diane with her daddy, banjo man Matt Bauer and that right wonderful squaw Mariee Sioux.

Bunny bunny bunny

I think these could be developed into very charming little cartoon critters. I drew them while on the phone last night. One is a neurotic of course. The other plucky and the one with boobies is like a leporid Betty Boop.
There's a comic in there I think

Creepity creep

As flawed as it is I adore our national public transportation system. It gets you places, almost anywhere in fact. It does so on time even (well most of the time). You can buy a card to almost reduce the price by half, and on top of that it's the more sustainable choice as well.
It's a relaxed way of traveling, seeing landscapes fly by, you could even do some work if you are so inclined. You also get to meet people, nice, cute wonderful people if you're lucky. (if you're less lucky you're later dependent on the Rails' misery hearts page) Or you encounter less savoury characters. Like this creep I saw in the train from Emmen to Zwolle. The drawing doesn't even do him justice. I swear he must have been keeping maggots or eels beneath that baggy coat.
