Hello folks! Since our final hand-in I have finally had time to straighten out my personal life somewhat, as well as play on my very neglected xbox (with an equally neglected and patient boyfriend, aww).
In the meantime I've been doing a spot of drawing, this one is a two day mini-project I did for the Cheltenham Illustration Awards. They wanted work with a narrative element (which my other work doesn't really have) so I decided to make some new stuff for it instead (better to enter rather than not eh?) I'm not sure if this counts as narrative, they weren't too specific. However, judging by last year's entries they didn't have to be full-on comic strips or anything so hopefully this will be ok. The lady in the picture is a stall-holder at Covent Garden Market, selling teddy bears and bear hand-puppets. She caught my eye as she (and her bear) read the paper.
omg i love the teddies! bottom one is my fave. did you get it all done and sent in time?
ReplyDeleteYup I did indeed, got an email confirming that they had recieved my stuff, so fingers crossed, eh? Best of luck for us both!
ReplyDeleteAw these teddies are so cool!!!!
ReplyDeleteI've got my fingers crossed!!!
hey thanks for you comment, and I'm glad you enjoyed the exhibition :D
ReplyDeleteI like the fact you penciled the price in!
ReplyDeleteCheers Turnip head, Crom and Akbar! Well as far as the price is concerned, I figured if she tried to sue me for drawing her and the bears then at least I could try to win her over by arguing that she was getting free advertising! Always good to have a plan B, eh?
ReplyDeleteMade me smile- they have a lovely quiet humour about them. x
ReplyDeleteI wish I could draw like that... your stuff's got real character ;->...
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment Gledwood, like the hamster btw! I miss having pets...
