You are a great inventor.

This made me laugh! I love it-it's like something from ye 1930's. I want to see what outfit you where whilst painting now.....

If I didn't see it in person...I wouldn't believe it. Very cool, pal. Now let's see a scan of that painting hiding in the background!

That's fantastic. I use something similar --it's called Photoshop.

Shelly, I think maybe you were Thomas Edison's crazy kid brother in another life. Keep up the inventions! You're clearly good at it!!

Hi! I just happened upon your blog randomly. I enjoyed your pictures!

fun idea, I like the proportions

Hey Jeff,

Nice illustrator drawing, also I really like those sketches of people below!!

Great Illustrator piece, Jeff! Love the color choice too. I'd love to see more like this.

Shelly! Great sketches....the second sketch is actually pretty....I've never seen you draw anyone pretty before.
You broke the mold! Keep on postin'....we love your work.

Another winner, Shelaylay!

Very nice, I love the folds and wrinkles in the fabric. Trying to send you an email, but keeps coming back. What's up with that?

Are you going as you go?

Awesome, Jeff! Is this just for yourself or an upcoming show?

I love how the final turned out Shelly! A true testament to your work style and speed. Nicely done!

Beautiful work Mr. Shelly. Great rendering technique, lots of soul.

Beautiful watercolor, Jeff. Thanks for sharing your "go as you go" process!

All of these are great Jeff, but my favorites are the two blue guys sitting next to each other and the second to last image where the lady is looking to the viewer's left. Really fun stuff.

Beautiful work, Shelly. Too bad we had to wait 3 months for a post!! You should really do a book of your work....I don't know what you're waiting for.
Nice to see James too....

Happy Birthday, ya 43 year old bastard!
I love you.

Funny drawings! See you soon.....

the bartender is priceless

These sketches are beautiful, Shelly. So many nice things going on in them. love the wash look especially in the previous posts.

hello there, you are guilty and you know it !

Really nice character sketches Shelly- I don't think I'd want them deciding my fate in a trial though. :)

this sketchbook you showed me is great by the way.

Woo hoo! More jury duty. Nice! I love that you captured the boredom without making the drawings boring. Really witty expressions on these poor civil servants.

i like the guy with the cap and the big hands.

the only way to survive jury duty is with a sketchbook.

I don't envy you having to go to jury duty, but it's great you got some nice sketches out of doing your civic penance. I had to do jury duty and I thought it would be great to draw in my sketchbook. I did so for the first few hours until an older lady spotted me and came over and talked my ear off about her son and her entire life story. Those last few hours dragged on something fierce.
Can't wait to see your next set of sketches.

i love the guy 2nd from the top. totally spacing out...

he looks so intense with his cowboy boots on.

Haha! I love how you made a point about the boots. He probably never heard the end of it from you.

this made me laugh out loud!

nice boots.

Yes, nice boots and nice sketch.

Who's that?

this is a good one. i like the intensity of his gaze.

Love the one with the smug guy reclining back onto the bigger annoyed man and I really like the one that shows the plane interior. I gotta get you to demo your water color process sometime.

I love the drawings. So many great characters!!!

Jeff, these are awesome....and so fun to look at. How do you do caricatures of people on a plane? Are you constantly turning around in your seat to look at them?
Ry

Hi Jeff, I like this style.
Are you using ink pen and a brush?

O gawd, Shelly...These are so damn funny. I love the subtle expression in the characters' eyes, especially the guy second from bottom w/ his head in hand.
