Brilliance of Boredom, No. 3

Here is the second small doodle in the series entitled "The Brilliance of Boredom." Although I have never been truly prone to giving names to small doodles such as this, I, somehow, thought that the name Rayliegh seemed to fit this observatory character like a glove.
This character came as an inspiration from another one of my favorite authors, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, but particularly of his creation, Sherlock Holmes. Although this bohemian is not an exact replica of the world's greatest consulting detective, I thought that he had to be a character that sat in a chair just observing his surroundings, much like the great detective's brother, Mycroft, but not as corpulent. So, just to go with the inspirational genesis of this character, I think that a quote from Doyle framing this sedentary and observational character is just the thing it needs. Keep a sharp eye out for the edited picture...

Brilliance of Boredom, No. 2

Cue The Fanfare! Here is the newly edited picture of the character that I had copied from a sketchbook of mine. The quote, as before, is not my own, it belongs to the great author Edgar Allan Poe. At the left side of the picture is my emblem that I usually hide within the picture, to signify that the drawing is complete. Considering that it is, quite literally, at the feet of this meandering character, it seemed fitting to put it where there was some space to spare (although, now that I think of it, I should have put Mr. Poe's name in the spare space instead of my pretentious logo, to show the distinct brilliance of such an author). I hope that the whimsical little quote fits the wandering character swimmingly and I am working diligently on posting another drawing, so keep a sharp eye out...

The Brilliance of Boredom, No. One

Bienvenue & Welcome to this new set of Scribbles written and complied by me. I enjoy drawing reading quite a bit & hope that you readers stay tuned in for more drawings to come. Thanks.

Here is the first in a series of drawings entitled "The Brilliance of Boredom." It will consist of a series of scribbles that I have photographed from a sketchbook of mine and then I will do some editing to make it, with any luck, a little more than just a scribble. To start out the series, here is a small doodle of a character that was inspired by both Kenneth Grahame and Brian Froud (both are artists in their own regard and both of which I truly admire) that I decided to draw into being out of pure whimsy one day. Although, unfortunately, I couldn't fit the whole character into a picture, I was able to fit the detail of the head and most of the coat into the picture.

After loading the picutre onto the computer, I then decided to sort of play around on a picture editing website that my sister uses most of the time for her pictures (called picnik). I thought that the picture would do with a good quote from one of my favorite authors, Edgar Allan Poe. It was a whimsical little quote that I always get a good smile from. With any luck, the newly edited picture should be up within the week. HUZZAH!
