I tried drawing tonight but it just wasn’t happening. Too distracted and preoccupied. So in lieu of that, here’s a painting from summer 2004.

More workplace doodles

Pompadour, sometime in Aug 2006

Assorted shapes drawn around a flowchart, Jan 2008

Better paper but not as relaxed as the previous entry. 4/26/2011

Another old drawing from the Newton days. 4/6/2001

And now for something completely different. Maybe I should be drawing on something other than scrap cheap copy paper. 4/24/2011

The one nice thing about this awful job I had in Newton, MA was the park on the other side of the Mass Pike. 4/20/2001

Self-portraits, then and now. 4/23/2011

Bats. 4/21/2011

Some animals on scrap paper while working. 4/20/2011

I found this napkin doodle in a box of work stuff that had been sitting unopened and unexamined since I got laid off in Aug 2009. I don’t know why I kept it in the first place.

From the back page of this notebook, so date unknown. I need to figure out what to scan next.

Dinosaur riding. 5/25/2008

Stump at Big Lake, Oregon. 7/21/1999

At least I’m aware of it. 4/2008

Take that! 4/2008

More faces. 4/2008

I wonder what’s in the box. 3/25/2008

Just some doodling. 3/25/2008

Spunky looking doodle. 6/21/2008

Experimenting with digital inking and coloring. 4/7/2011

John McCain. 4/19/2008

Ok, so maybe Hillary Clinton’s overbite isn’t this bad… 4/19/2008

Doodle of a coworker. 4/19/2008

I could go for some neural jacks at the base of the neck. 4/12/2008

Showing doodles in real life

Last week, I showed the Red Moleskine to someone and got all flustered and shy in the process. *boggle* I guess there’s a big difference between posting to the more-or-less anonymous Internet (and not being particularly sure anyone is listening) and sitting across a coffee table from someone while they flip through the unfiltered versions and all the notes surrounding them.

Some more D&D doodles. 4/12/2008

Hey! This isn’t a doodle! Well, I never said everything would be… I framed this drawing and hung it up in my living room. 7/27/2004

Sword and a faint medusa. Maybe she’s a ghost medusa… ooh, that’s good. *scribbles notes furiously* 4/5/2008

I’m not sure exactly onto what she’s holding. This was doodled while DMing a D&D game on 4/5/2008.
