She's got Bette Davis Eyes. Large watercolors are hard. This still has a ways to go. Nothing like a super big effort to deliver a punchline.

@Amr1ta Hopefully the joke is clear. I'm my only audience while I work. Never know, really.

A sketch from a minute ago at my local favorite coffee place. Someone actually reading a book in foreground. Bravo.

A sketch from a minute ago looking out a hotel window on the central coast of California. This is a beautiful place.

This is a sketch for Clare Torry, who had a birthday in the last week or 2. She turned the members of Pink Floyd into billionaires with her epic Great Gig In the Sky.

@DemocracySpot Haha. Yeah, work had me flat, but got out from under.

Singer/songwriter David Gate's birthday is today. If you're like me, you thought "what is this crap". But my sibling liked it. Most likely, you were born far after he was popular, and you never had to take a side. Anyway, here's a sketch I did a few years ago to commemorate his work, I guess.

@DemocracySpot Haha, good for you to stand up for his work. 👍

Tomorrow is Dan Blocker's birthday (Hoss Cartwright to you, maybe). It turns out he was not only Hoss, but also founded Ponderosa Steak house. Here's a random sketch page I did on that subject a year or 2 ago.

@DemocracySpot Ha, amazing. Wonderful memories. Somehow I figured you for a chicagoan.No place to go but up from pondo busboy.

@LaNaehForaday Interesting deep thought. And, as a picture make, I like to think a picture could do that.

Today is the birthday of Jean Castelbajac (fashion designer of whimsy). Somehow he plays with kitsch, but it still looks like style. This sketchpage is from a decade ago.

@DemocracySpot oh yeah, was definitely a phase

Aujourd'hui, je vous partage un peu de légèreté dans cette période sombre. Gardons une place pour le rêve et l'espoir.

Aquarelle de 2018.

@antoinechev damn, l just aime this

@antoinechev Thank you. Am I more into sketching at the moment? I don’t know the answer to that question because I think of everything I do as sketching. I have 3 types of work: weird ideas, people I have seen in pictures, and things I have seen in person. But all of it seems to be sketchy and unfinished.

bythehandofbob,
@bythehandofbob@mstdn.social avatar

@antoinechev I will have to try some of that. Have never tried salt.

📷 Driving past Burger King this morning en route to the market, I noticed this red semi truck and made a U-turn. Pulling in, I spotted the red border on the drive-thru kiosk.

@DemocracySpot reminds me of ed ruscha

@bythehandofbob@mstdn.social avatar

@DemocracySpot I could see that comparison. Ruscha seemed to be another someone who recognized the geometrical beauty of service stations.
