Goodbye Dad....

My Dad passed away on the 8th of January, aged 72.  This is how I prefer to remember him, the way he used to be years ago before suffering a brain injury in 2006.  He was a very funny man, always joking.  He was also very talented at many different things .  He loved painting, gardening, travelling, playing the organ and movies (especially Westerns).  He worked as a Sales Manager for Singapore Airlines for over 30 years and was one of the most hardworking people I've ever known.  Goodbye Dad, you will be sadly missed....

Xmas Robin

I don't usually have two projects going at the same time but I felt like starting this today.  Coloured pencils on pastel paper.  Just starting to block in the basic colours at this stage.

Work in progress....

Just started on this drawing today, continuing with the theme of anthro animals.  Coloured pencils on watercolour paper

Sisters

Coloured pencils on pastel paper, A4 size.  Original available in my Etsy shop.

Miss Fancy Pants

This idea popped into my head the other night and I couldn't wait to give it a go.    Coloured pencils on light mauve pastel paper.

Snow Leopard

I drew this in my sketchbook this morning for the Colored Pencil Magazine challenge.  I decided to go with a minimalist approach and have the eyes as the main focus and just do suggestion of the fur.

2nd abstract finished

I found these panoramic canvases in the shops the other day and thought it would be perfect for my next abstract.  I've painted this in a similar style to the first but a bit more colourful, I changed a few things along the way but I'm happy with the end result.  Oil on canvas, 8" x 16".
