Here’s the Ha-Ba-Da-Bee #19 Live Drawing I did Tuesday.

All improvisation with no pencils or preparation. Just ink on blank paper.

The stetting was set by previous contributions from last Saturday I didn’t get to, which were all underwater. So I prepared to draw the setting underwater (See the video). In the end, I drew none of the earlier specific requests.

My Ha-Ba-Da-Bee Warm-Up illustration for April 22nd – Book Characters.
by Rob Smith, Jr. on Apr.23, 2020, under Books, Illusration
Off the top of my head illustrated three main characters of books I’ve just finished.
First is Cluny Brown of the book with the same name by Marjery Sharp.
The next is a drawing with no reference of Thomas A. Edison. I just finished ‘The Edisons of Fort Myers’ by Tom Smoot.
The last is the evil, madman, Warren Latch, of ‘The Loner: Brutal vengeance’ by William Johnstone.
All ink on paper. No pencils. No plan. Just started drawing.

Ha-Ba-Da-Bee Live Drawing – Saturday – 3pm!
On my Facebook/RobSmithJr page!
I’ll be live creating an illustrated story entirely based upon the interactions I have with those of you that tune in.
No telling what will happen and what i might draw!
I’ll be over in my neighbor’s garden with the babbling fountains…where i’ll be babbling, too.
Forecast is for rain. If that happens, i’ll move it all inside….
and babble there instead.
I have some news to babble about.
Below, please type a thing or two I might start with to create the story.
