Sketch Sunday

June 7, 2026

June 07, 2026

My first Sketch Sunday on the site! Here’s a weekly peek into what nonsense is knocking around my head as I keep up the sketching chops.

First is a drawing of a vampire bat guy swooping around above a village. It started as face drawing and…evolved.

Wheeee!

Next is a couple of doodles plotting out some of those convention sketches I showed the other day. Possibilities and reminders all in one.

Ballpoint sketch of Beetlejuice and David from the Lost Boys.
David ended up a bit anime-ey…

I met a friend at the coffee shop again. These folks were within range. The angry guy may not have been THAT irritable. But he was far across the room.

Ballpoint sketches of people drawn at a coffee shop. Heads and upper bodies.
It’s hard to get down details AND conversate.

I finally did a sketch of Burt Jones who is running for Georgia governor. I don’t think I got him exactly right but here’s the thing…I’m not that concerned. I don’t even know if that’s how you spell his dumb name and he’s been in Georgia politics for a long time.

He may not be quite so chubby…again…I don’t care.

Finally I have an image that popped in my head right as I woke up one day this week. I don’t know why. I don’t know where it came from. But it was right there. So I scribbled it down for all to see. Little Bunny Kaiju.

Egg time…is OVER.

And that’s all for this week in artistic accountability. I hope you had a good weekend. Be safe this week and keep your eyes open. Watch out for each other.
