Right, that's it for the selling, for now. I hope you understand that I have to do it. It's how I get the time to draw and post all this crazy stuff. Back with more crazy stuff very soon.

For those who asked, here’s a look at some of the materials I’m using. Oil pastels are at the back. In front on the left is the acrylic iridescent white paint and the iridescent medium on the right, which are mixed with pastel on the palette.

I’m now on instagram! Please follow me to see the newest updates fresh from the drawing table http://instagram.com/rodrigoluff
This is a cropped preview of a drawing I’m wrestling with now, it is 16” x 20”
I have a love hate relationship with a lot of my work. Sometimes, if I've laboured over a drawing, by the time I've completed it, I usually despise it.
Another thing I've found is that my taste often differs from those (of you) that view my work. The drawings that other people respond to in a positive way can be the ones I dislike the most. I'm almost always surprised by the ones that get a huge response. Sometimes not, but mostly. Then, there are the ones that I love and other people hardly even notice. But, I love that not knowing.
More recently, as my drawing evolves, and I spend a lot more time sketching, the reasons why I like, or dislike, a drawing too have changed. I'm still always chasing a great image, of course (good composition, subject, etc), but now, it's the work where I have challenged or pushed myself, in some way, that I feel most pleased with.
For example, I really love this drawing. I made it in one of the large Moleskine sketchbooks (so, it's on a bigger scale than I used to work). I saw the red chequered table cloth and immediately knew I was going to get a drawing out of it. The food looked great against the cloth was too inviting (but I had to be quick as it was being moved around the table). And, then there were the people, all chatting and moving. I like to think I captured the scene.
Maybe those are the reasons I like it so much, and I'm not expecting it to set the world alight, but it just pleases me. That's all.
There is an information board just outside the cafe. You can just see the top of it in this picture. It's in the hedge, next to the road sign, across the road from the car, got it? I said I'd knock something up, you know, a quick sketch to go along with the official event poster, to tell people we'll be there.
A quick sketch, my arse.
Meet Archibald Twig again. The drawing at the top of this page is an original and I'm putting that on sale on Ebay (starting at a penny, as always), but that's not all. What you get is the original, the original handwritten provenance and one of the cut-out-and-make limited edition cards.

My last drawing, the second step in this project, was put up for sale on Ebay. It sold at

In a frustrating turn of events the sale for this drawing has fallen through over the weekend. It's particularly frustrating as it holds up this project. If you are interested check it out here. It's on sale for less than the highest bid just to keep the project rolling.
