Illustration Friday- Glamour

A Supermodel taking drugs- who would have thought!

I found the whole Kate Moss-Drug scandal thing somewhat humorous- in the sense that the media and all the fashion houses associated with her were outraged at saddened at the thought that a model would be involved with narcotics..... Such hypocrisy.
A glamorous industry indeed! [pardon the sarcasm!]

Illustration Friday-Cats

My Hound doesn't like cats!
Especially the kind that come on to his side of the fence and run across his yard.
He's not sure what these strange little animals are but he thinks that surely they're not allowed at his house!

This is something i am working of for this weeks illustration Friday theme of Cats. Yes, i know this is a Dog not a cat, but trust me it will be relevant!.....eventually!
[this drawing in based on my Baskerville Hound]

Ilustration Friday- E is for....

Especially for you...
That's right the oh so perfect 1988 collaboration of those Neighbours kids Kylie Minogue & Jason Donovan...

In the 80's it was all anyone wanted- to believe that Scott & Charlene were together in real life! [well in Australia & the UK maybe!]

Illustration Friday- Sea

The Owl and The Pussycat went to sea in a beautiful pea-green boat

For some reason the nursery rhyme of The Owl and The Pussycat was the first thing that came to mind in response to the topic Sea.....funny how the mind works!

Illustration Friday- Flavor

I had almost forgotten!

As a kid, I used to refer to the colors of my watercolor paintbox as 'flavors'. I would ask: "What flavor should I paint the sky?"

I think it is because I had a pack of marker pens that all smelled like different fruits...

Or maybe because colored pencils and crayons have names like "Blueberry" or "Watermelon"


[why do I always wait until the last moment to post my Illustration Friday entries- maybe I could put it down to a careful week-long consideration of the theme? yeah...lets go with that!]
