Thai General


Sketch from the BBC newssite again - something about the composition, the blank space to the left, makes him look childlike and vulnerable.

Equestrienne



After a few months of mostly digital creation, I've got back into a routine of doing a nightly ink drawing with a Proper Pen...

This started the process off, as an attempt to explain to my 5 year old daughter how the protagonist of the poem/song Equestrienne could bend her toe and point her knee while on horseback.

The song can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PYXYKOZBN0 based on a poem by Rachel Field.
