I was at a conference over last weekend. It was a good one, not one of the boring, meaningless jollies I remember from my younger working days. I guess people don’t have time to waste now, or demand better value for money. But I found a few minutes here and there to have a quickContinue reading “Quick Conference Sketch: 2”

I did a few ofContinue reading “Porto Pavement People.”

IContinue reading “The Rediscovered Sketchbook.”

Went to a gig last night with Husb, of course I had to have a scribble.
