Welcome to the Artistic Biker's Webspace!

The Artistic Biker is me, Jonathan "Blade" Manning.
A treasure troll of a man, with hobbit feet and a sharp pointy head. You may see me traveling up and down the highways of Oklahoma looking for the next place to sketch, paint, sing, dance, write, photograph or simply meditate. I have begun a journey that once set upon, there is no turning back. You can share in my blunt force journey through the art world on my weekly U-stream broadcast
The Artistic Biker Live!

Thursdays from 6-8p central

Also, check me out on Teh YouTube!
You can "LIKE" me on Facebook!
And on Twitter, I'm @BladeTheArtist




Brush Entertainment

February 9th, 2009

92 Brush EntertainmentSo, I was spending some time perusing sketching.cc and flipping through the pages of Russ Stutler’s online “how to sketch” book.  Believe it or not it had never occurred to me to sketch with a brush and ink.  So, tonight I ran to Staples and bought a bottle of ink.  Here’s my first ever attempt.  I could get used to this style.  I like the expressive quality of the lines.  I like how easy it is to change the style with just a slight bit of pressure.  I think I’ll play with this a bit this week.  I would take this on the road if I could make it more portable.  I may have to get me a brush pen like this little beauty here.  That sucker costs the same as my monthly water bill.

91 Brush EntertainmentTonight’s EDM was to draw architecture.  My house is over a hundred years old and all the doors open like a race track around the house to let air flow freely when the windows are open.  So, that’s tonight’s architecture.
