Just Keep Swimming ...

Not sure how appropriate it is to reference 'Finding Nemo' in this context, whatever I do will probably come across as rather cheesy. This illustration was a 30th birthday present for my older brother. He's had it pretty tough the past few years but he is rather inspiring, if at times a total pain in the arse. I thought he might like a visual reminder to never give in. At times I think I need one too, should probably do myself a print of this one.

The Foulest of the Fowl (perhaps) // Wild Turkey

This is the last of these birds, it may not be the last time I draw one, but it definitely sees the completion of the zine. "Foul Fowl" will be available as an A6 fold out publication, featuring everyone's favourite, the Andean Condor as an A3 poster on the fold out reverse. Pretty exciting I'm sure.

Let me introduce the Wild Turkey. He's well lumpy.

Take that Mosquitos!

Chameleons are ace, not just because of their Predator like colour changing skills but also cos of that really weird way they walk and how their eyes can turn all the way around, creepy/pretty.

In this heat wave I have been bitten about 15 times so far and I have a gross allergic reaction to it. If only I had a bunch of pet lizard to protect me from them. D'ya think cats and chameleons get on well?? Seems unlikely but I can live in hope.

Foul Fowl // Muscovy Duck

Not that foul really, tho what is up with that lumpy red face? Why are so many birds so bloody lumpy? Tho obvs as proven by Lumpy Space Princess this is not necessarily a bad thing.

Drawn on the piece of card my new dress was delivered wrapped, around thanks to ASOS for providing me with free art supplies :)

Lizards are the new birds ...

Went a bit lizard crazy last week but forgot to post all of them. The colours of these guys in real life are amazing and the Mwanza flat-headed Rock Agama really does have very similar colouring to Spiderman.

Potentially the coolest lizard ever ...

Gecko ecko echo echo!!!

Andean Condor // Foul Fowl

Three posts in one day, what can I say ... it's been a busy day.

All these birds (well only the ugly ones) are for a zine but I am kinda tempted to keep it up and do the whole alphabet in Foul Fowl and then make me/you some posters of them. Also on the 'cards' a set of bird playing cards *ahem* perhaps.

However, for now, another Condor for your perusal.
