Just learned that if I use the phone to take a photo of this it will reproduce here turned the wrong way. Back to using my camera to import pictures here. Neko the Cat is constant inspiration. When my children were small I would love sketching them but it was necessary to only do this when they were sleeping. Otherwise they were on the move. Lately I’ve been attempting to sketch from memory. In the past, I always sketched only what I could view in real life and real time. (I want to digress about what is real but I’ll save that for another time.)

These true-story cartoons were made while I was studying jujitsu in NYC with Sensei Maria Van Dessel at Biwako Dojo (now called Eizan Ryu Jujitsu). I didn’t even own a computer then.

Sketches from Florida. Yeah Mom, I did actually bring the dead wasp into your house so I could sketch it. No worries, it’s gone now.

My cat wanted to stay in the garden after dark so I stayed with her. Maybe that wasn’t such a good idea.
