May 30, 2025 Another entry in the white ink on black paper sketches of a rock musician, this is the lead singer of Midnight Oil. He's tall, gaunt, and looks a bit like a zombie, but can rock out (and was in the Australian Parliament too). I was listening to an album and looked up some songs and saw a picture of him that looked like it has some strong contrasting lines and figured I'd give it a try. The shirt had folds which is nice, but I kind of just simplified the pattern on it. I'm still figuring out how to draw things backwards. The neck vs. the shirt collar still needs work. Here's the reference image and here is the full size scan of my drawing. One again, this was pretty quick. |

I tend to doodle. Over the years, I've accumulated lots of random
sketches of things, sometimes people, sometimes things, and sometimes
just abstract lines. The basic idea on these pages is for me to slowly
scan in highlights from my collection of random quick doodles. I also
am providing a place where I can explain what it is or what motivated
it or perhaps some reason why I'm not to blame. With the sketches of
people, their name may be hand-written, or there might be a talk title
provided, but I will tend to avoid providing full names. I don't mind
if people know who they are, I just don't want them coming up on search
engine hits, since that might be a bit rude.
Note that the images are PNGs with transparency. Mozilla and Firefox
properly render them. Safari too, I think. Internet Exporer doesn't.
I don't care.
