Moments between work over this busy weekend

today, from 12pm, Whitechapel.

Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is not a fun one. I did this to myself by consistently overdoing it at the gym and then baking (=mixing by hand) too much at the end of the year. I am happy to say, though, that it's probably 75% better now. And luckily it hasn't impacted my ability to draw.

I've just started reading the Maigret novels by Georges Simenon for the first time. Out of order, as that is what is available from my library, but enjoying them nonetheless.

A couple sculptures from the Snow Festival in Sapporo, Japan

I love drawing comics in Clip Studio. But any color work is another matter. Procreate and its brush engine works so much better (for me).

I definitely think it IS the job of our political representatives to put themselves in harm's way to protect democracy because otherwise it's up to the most vulnerable of us who don't get paid 6 figures annually to do it

I liked how this figure turned out, but after some more thinking, the panel itself didn’t work, so it’s in the bin🗑️ #comics #art

I don't (and won't) post re. politics. I'm so fed up with everything in the world that I would be angry on here exactly 100% of the time. But it is so damning to see so few people in power condemn what's going on in any meaningful way. No actions taken. Nothing. An unserious country to its core.

It’s been snowing like mad in Sapporo.

ルックバック/Look Back (2024) is a good one

Snowy night in Shibuya, January 2010. Small shots, sorry. But I wasn't putting up bigger work online back then. More in the ALT. Hope you've all had a great Monday. Time for me to hit the sack. Meetings, writing and blogging for me tomorrow. So I wanna be up and at it early. Sleep well. 🙏❤️

If only I could afford to hire a background artist 😅

豊昇龍! 横綱になるべし

Sapporo, Japan. We’ve had less snow than usual this year; here are a couple phone snaps from last year.
