Christmas Time!

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas! :)

These heart wrenching scenes of Neville and his mum.

And of course the iconic Harry and Cho, Christmas scene.

(I totally ship Harry and Ginny though)

Throwback Thursday:

Ages ago I made this hideous Christmas card,

but there were aspects of the picture I liked,

so last night I photoshopped it into a better version.

'Dobby had taken it upon himself to decorate the place for Christmas. 

He could tell the elf had done it, 

because nobody else would have strung a hundred golden baubles from the ceiling, 

each showing a picture of Harry's face and bearing the legend: 

HAVE A VERY HARRY CHRISTMAS! 

Harry had only just managed to get the last of them down before the door creaked open 

and Luna Lovegood entered' 

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix 

Ch 21 The Eye of the Snake. 

Basically, Dobby is a legend.

I designed some animal themed Christmas Cards this year. :)

Hermione's plans for Christmas.

Have made Christmas Cards and Kid's Activity Pack

for Hackney City Farm,

which can be bought in their shop :)

I know it's not Christmassy but I

just had to draw the 'Good luck, Ron'

scene. It made me so happy!

I had the privilege of designing Christmas

cards for Hackney Foodbank.

Hackney Foodbank (and foodbank in general)

is a wonderful charity doing great things.

Have a look at their website;

Tis the Season

I designed a Christmas version of

Sablecaught's banner for her youtube channel.

We decided the Sablecaught year can be split into;

Christmas Time, Ordinary Time, and Zombie Time.

Here's the banner in action;

also check out Sablecaught's channel,

it's great.

Been reading and doodling some more

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

Umbridge is causing a stir at Hogwarts.

Patterned pictures based on 'Don Quixote', 'Great Expectations'

and 'The Jungle Book'

Random pics for funsies

Just felt like drawing a cow

So my vineyard adventure went a tad wrong,

so I'm back early.

But I had a fun time,

and met some wonderful people.

And here are my pics.

Going to go pick grapes.

See you in 5 weeks :)

This Sunday I'm running an all ages drawing event

through The Big Draw at Hackney City Farm.

Do come along if you can :)

Sketching the view from my front door

Leeds Chaplaincy Building

I stumbled across a figure drawing class

in Spitalfields Market

(I stumbled across the best things in Spitalfields Market)

Art in Crisis put the class on.

It was really fun.

Do check them out,

they may have some classes near you;

Reading 'Right Ho, Jeeves'

by P. G. Wodehouse.

'Jeeves and Wooster' has some hilarious lines.

And here's my collaboration picture,

it's of my brother,

who passed his GCSEs and got into

sixth form.

Hurray for my little brother.

Here's an unflattering portrait of him 

drinking relentless out of a tiny teapot.

Collaboration time again.

Above is a link to Megan's

beautiful artwork;

portraits of her dad and stepdad,

who sadly passed this year.

Yoshie the Imperial Shih Tsu

Found this cutie and thought a drawing of it

was worthy of my procrastination.

A Muscovy Duck from Hackney City Farm.

Originating from Mexico and South America.

It's original habitat is swamps, lakes and streams...

Does anyone else think it looks a bit like a Dodo?

No power in the 'verse can stop me!

I thought the Hackney Council Logo

looked like a superhero symbol.

So I drew a superhero.

Quote from 'Firefly' by Joss Whedon,

love, Love, LOVE the TV Series!
