One of those weeks.

I've been ill all week, so everything has a decidedly scribbled, difficult-to-pay-attention tone to it.

I've been mostly writing stuff for the comic, so every so often I try to make sure I remember how to draw the characters. This sheet was more miss than hit.


The rest are nonsense: 







I do a lot of these scribbly things without ever considering sharing them normally, but I think it makes a nice change eh?

Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath, And so live ever---or else swoon in death.

Again, I apologise for being rubbish at keeping to a schedule. That said it's been a busy week that ended in some pretty good news, so it's not wholly my fault.

Just a quick few things to share with you, that relate to the heartiest of days. Here's a commission of Tom and Beth that I did:



And here's a photograph of it printed onto a canvas, that I was just emailed: 



It came out quite nicely, I thought. 

Finally here is a quick Valentine's Day card I made, for my own entertainment more than anything. You don't seem to get proper cherubs and so on on cards anymore, it seems a shame. 


As I was drawing this I was watching Run Lola Run (for the first time!), and it was fantastic. That said, watching a subtitled film whilst drawing isn't exactly ideal. This only took me half of the duration the film to draw (forty five minutes-ish?) but I probably should have done it in a fraction of the time!

"They must have veered off the road!"

I apologise for the lack of an update last week. I've had a bad hand/wrist, and so I've not drawn much. Next time I'll do something as a filler, be it words or someone else's pictures. Or both.

Anyway, as a result of minimal drawing time these are all very quick daily sketches:


This one is of Carys from La Ville Inconnue








All of these, and others, are already up on my Tumblr as well.
