Good morning! This is a quick pencil sketch of my hand playing a fancy triple bend on a beaten up old Telecaster with the finest of necks with great grain.

When I have flu it usually ends up with 3 weeks, at best, of looking and feeling like death on legs...

Howe probably does the same straight after matches. Watching football without adrenalin is pretty relaxing, especially if you have won

I need your help!!! We’ve got some stunning merch for Legenda coming up, but can’t decide on the quotes. Which do you think? If you comment and share your choices - A or B - you could win a copy of the book, plus your very own bag and book mark!

Let's hope no one comes back broken from this break

It's kind of you! I used to be able to help, but these days I'm absolutely lost with questions like this. I'm impressed with your talent!

Every now and again I'll have a conversation with someone who with great confidence will tell me art is not a proper work pursuit, that it's a hobby. Those same people are going to love this idea! When can it start?!

Evening pen drawing of the world's best Ben Stiller, @benstiller.redhour.com
Quite challenging to draw with someone peering over my shoulder in the cafe I drew it in. They eventually suggested I use AI to draw it and save time...
They also thought it was a drawing of Jimmy Carr...

It's #UrbanGaze Thursday. When I was up in Portland, ME this summer this was the first thing I saw when we got in. (Well the first thing I saw was tacos) Walked around with a local friend and saw all the good spots.
