Some bubble animals, including a bubble goldfish inside a bubble goldfish bowl blowing bubbles.

Sketchercise Thursday

What's this guy's story! How does a creepy guy like this fit in with the other two characters? It's all a little convoluted and will be explained tomorrow/over the weekend. He's a casino croupier and was involved with the demise of the puppy seen yesterday.

Sketchercise Wednesday

Sketch Wednesday. This is a flashback from yesterday's sketch. She's the partner of the guy on the road, and they love their dog. Something bad happened, and the dog has ended up in the guy's suitcase... why?! Who knows, maybe I'll figure out why with tomorrow's character sketch!

Sketchercise Wednesday

Sketchercise Wednesday with Max, Bernie, TJ and the UnicornStorm.


She's called Natalia, and she ain't afraid of no ghost!
There's so many things wrong with the proportions of this character, but I'm pretty pleased with everything above the shoulders which doesn't happen very often.

Sketchercise Tuesday

"Western" Sketchercise Tuesday with Max, and UnicornStorm.


He's called Monty, the comic relief hanging around in the background getting into trouble.

Sketchercise Monday

This guy is called Anton, he's a chemist. Part of this week's "Western" series.

With Max, Bernie, TJ and the UnicornStorm.

Sketchercise Friday

Sketchercise Friday. Nobody else around this morning, I guess they're all sleeping, ahhhh.

Head's a little bit big on this one, but I'm pretty pleased with this morning's effort. Even managed to get all the facial features in! Something's wrong with her shoulders though.

 In absentia: Max, Bernie, TJ and the UnicornStorm.

Sketchercise Thursday

A late night Sketchercise Thursday with Max, Bernie, TJ and the UnicornStorm, in which Sketchercise went international, Bernie introduced us to the 10,000 hour rule and repeatedly confused our new American sketcher, TJ disappeared, and Max revealed his secret recordings of the session. If he can only figure out how to autotune, we could have a Christmas number one on our hands.

Sketchercise Tuesday

Sketch Tues with Bernie. 

Watching an Apollo launch maybe? Another rush job today, gotta hit the gym before work.

Double wowee!

It must be my lucky day! I just had an email from Mrs Ruth Wong from the Shanghai Banking Corporation, China (not Shanghai, Portugal) about a $22.5million business opportunity. So long suckers, it's the high life from now on!

WOWEE!!

WOWEE! You wait years for a BAFTA nomination and then two come along at once! Grizzly Tales and Quiff & Boot both up for a kids BAFTA! Congrats, slaps on the back and ginger beer all round for Honeycomb and The Brothers McLeod.

Sketchercise Monday

Sketchercise Monday with TJ and Bernie. 60s theme!

*Just noticed some horrible errors with this one. Was a bit of a rush job which might explain it.

Sketchercise Friday

Quick Sketchercise Friday today, there's so much wrong with this but I have to hit the gym before work so I'll have to leave it there.

Some kind of countryside man. No idea what he's so happy about, but like Max's "high trouser" theory, people back then used to do this pose all the time didn't they?

Sketchercise Thursday

Sketchercise with Max and TJ.

This guy is some kind of goldenboy 50's boxer. I know where he ends up in the 1990's though and it ain't pretty!

The oldest cat in Bristol?

Found this cat during the art trail in Clifton this afternoon. An elderly couple walking past told us that he was a kitten when they moved onto the street 31 years ago. Frankly it seems a little absurd that a cat could live that long, but apparently it is possible. http://www.cat-world.com.au/cat-world-records
