Here's some old stuff including a painting from the only marking period of high school art class that I actually passed and some pages from one of the pads that I always carry around in my pocket for taking notes/doodling in.

It's weird to go much further, because they're from a phone, but I really like this incidental aesthetic you've picked up here with the blurring and the use of reflection. This one is really beautiful and enigmatic even though it looks totally normal if you think about it. But I feel like it captures a certain longing for beyond the window by having the reflection on the left side. The smooth blending is a natural part of the photograph, which is what makes it neat.
Maybe I'm making too much of your phone photos, but who knows...

There are loads of surreal photo opportunities near my work. Crucified shop dummies, headless baby shop dummies, endless reflective surfaces, people moving swiftly.
It is funny how you can ponder over a snap, lining it up, and know that you like it, but not know exactly why. I liked realising that the other 'shop model' one there has rain streaks that kinda mirror the cityscape reflected in the windows. Hadn't spotted it at the time, but it adds something to the dummies staring 'reflectively' out at the street.
But yeah, they are just fuzzy phone snaps

I'm not very good, but I do enjoy drawing. Here are some pencil sketches I did.
I also did a comic book (now a web comic) using several characters I created/co-created which are now "open-source" characters.

I just noticed that the website I used to host my comics at is down, so I'm reposting these things, which are all at least 8 years old. This is the order in which I drew them.

Thanks!
If I were going to do it again I'd have made the sequencing more obvious in no.4 (after the fifth panel you're supposed to skip to the end and read backwards towards the middle), but I'm partial to that one as well. My personal favorite of this bunch is the second-to-last.

Here's a drawing I did as a birthday gift for my former art teacher, who is also married to my boss. Small world, indeed. Anyway, here's the inscription I included:
"The world embarrasses me, and I cannot dream that this watch exists and has no watchmaker." --Voltaire
May you always be your own world-builder. May you spend all the days of your making with joy in your heart.
