Happy Birthday Dad!




















It's my Dad's birthday today.  I've made him a card....don't worry, there's no danger of him seeing it as he never goes near a computer!  The dog is based on some drawings I did at Wood Green Animal Shelter a few years ago.

The Story of Fluff and Billy Part 5 - Character and Artwork Experiments




























Well, apologies that this installment has been a long time in coming...to the extent that I've had to go back and refresh my memory about what I've covered so far!

Having drawn lots of penguins (see Part 4) I then started working on how the characters would look and what materials I would use to draw/paint them.  I tried all sorts of things but have a small selection here.  Early on in the process I managed to spill a whole bottle of sepia ink on myself and my chair.  I'm afraid to say that the jeans I was wearing at the time never recovered!
