 I drew this yesterday for George, as per my anniversaries/birthdays ritual. a-hard-days-night-paul-8 

I was originally planning to make it all philosophical, but it ended up as a straight portrait. 

My idea was something along these lines (see spoiler)… I’m not sure if what I did was cool or just silly (though, considering my reputation, the latter wouldn’t be that bad). 

This one was a test, just to get used to the thing. I might elaborate on this idea later, with a different image.

This was more like my original vision: he was supposed to be Stuck Inside A Cloud, although it ended up that he merged with the Rising Sun — which is rather better, actually. A happy accident. Yep

@WeepingAtlasCedars, now you don’t have to wait till dawn to find Georgie in the rising sun. a-hard-days-night-george-10 [/ashortenedspoiler]

Heheheh, I suppose I don’t! I can have him anytime now. a-hard-days-night-george-10

I’ve a few other Beatles things in the works which you shall hopefully see soon… a-hard-days-night-john-3  

It seems life is whot appens to yez whilst ye maketh other plans… a-hard-days-night-paul-10

Ere they is

I was trying out a cartoon style which I first used on Pink Floyd (whom I scribble about way too much, Roger’s nose is just too fun to draw).

Love those, SG! Now you’ve got two bands to use in comics. a-hard-days-night-george-9

I was listening to Rovelver*, and I’m Only Sleeping turned into this… 

It’s like when you’re trying to avoid waking up, and you end up dreaming that you’re waking up. Also inspired by Paul having to drag John out of bed for their writing sessions.

I listened to the full Revolver album on vinyl yesterday, and later that day planned to listen to it again. However, I only got to the end of side one because I was going somewhere and didn’t have time to play the second side. ahdn_paul_01

Therefore, I listened to a Revolver and a half. paul-mccartney-thumb_gif

Great!paul-mccartney-thumb_gif I wouldn’t mind jamming on a guitar or uke (even a sitar a-hard-days-night-ringo-12) at Friar Park myself. I’ve decided to do my own version of the Hard Day’s Meme thing, but I will post it in my thread later.

I may not be great, but I’m able to strumble out something sounding a tiny bit musical. And mine is a Beatles uke!

I have a ukulele from Hawaii that belonged to my grandmother. It’s perpetually out of tune and I use it to compose spontaneous atonal pieces.

That’s a great drawing of a Beatles ukefest!  BTW, I got cases for my ukes so they’re safe for travelling and keeping not damp or hot.

a-hard-days-night-george-10  

Here are 2 questions that I must ask:

1. Do you own an actual guitar or is this it

2. Do you use a Ukulele tuning or do you do what I do and tune to E standard (AKA E-A-D-G)

Nice Uke.

Maybe you should try posting more.

Super awesome, SG! The later/longer moptop period just so happens to be my favourite Beatles period as well! a-hard-days-night-george-9apple01 There was plenty of fringe to go around then. a-hard-days-night-george-10

It’s a Beatle birthday, so you know what that means… ahdn_george_08

I did something a bit different this time round. Instead of a usual portrait, which I didn’t much fancy as I’ve only done 30,000 or so of George by this point a-hard-days-night-george-10 I did an imagery piece inspired by one of my most favourite, most atmospheric Harrisongs (as well as the place that inspired it) — ‘Ballad Of Sir Frankie Crisp (Let It Roll)’. 

Alsoa whilst I’m here, my previous George-artworks previously posted to Fiendish Thingies (I am sticking them here for posterity) 

I have a major fascination with enigmatically misty and magical gardens, as you can see. ahdn_george_06

Awesome as always, SG! I love the effect on the trees in the background, it makes them look so lifelike as they go farther back and get fainter. a-hard-days-night-george-9
