Two fine covers…

Two fine covers from a second hand bookshop, North London.  Almost as new: safely stored in a bookcase somewhere for years before ending up on a table in the street, transferred to a brown paper bag, into my backpack and transported by tube to west London and onto another bookshelf.

Archie and The Bear…

Advance copy of a new picture book, Archie and The Bear by Zanni Louise (Little Hare Books) out in Spring. It's a black bear, and a little grizzly. You would be too if your jumper was too tight.

I'm drawing shoes (one hundred pairs in five days) for a book. I know more about shoes than I ever thought, before I started drawing them. They're very familiar, I guess I observe them without thinking about it. The problem is I tend to draw them pointed in the same direction, maybe because I'm right handed. I just don't know. But I have the same issue with noses. 

No two the same.
