Just a quick drawing of country singer Chely Wright while listening to her song ‘Like Me’.

Just messing about with colour options…

Here’s the gold version.

And here’s the line-art.

Stark House

Got a few requests for a Stark House piece (though admittedly, most were strictly concerned with Jon Snow ;D) so here it is, finally.

Tried to include the wolf though, how successful I was is another matter.

Since I’m on a total Game of Thrones buzz lately I decided to draw my favourite character for this month’s Collective Thinking post. Here’s Tyrion Lannister

Pencil drawing that I started the night before last & finished tonight (last night) after seeing The Hunger Games. Haven’t scanned it so this is just a photo.

Caught my second Civil Wars’ gig last Wednesday and it was hypnotising.

Zombiessss

The March theme for the Collective Thinking blog is ‘Zombies’

Okay, so it’s more the zombie hunter than the ACTUAL zombies, but you say ‘zombie’ & I hear ‘Zombieland’ The idea of putting Emma Stone’s red hair against something dark was appealing…plus it’s Emma Stone haha!

The Things That Protect You At Night

(Belated) post for February’s Collective Thinking theme http://collectivethinkingblog.blogspot.com/2012/03/things-that-protect-you-at-night_09.html

I’ve been going back to basics and avoiding my MacBook Pro a lot lately and I’m loving it. I’d forgotten what it’s like to try and make a marker last ’till the entire background is coloured in, haha. Anyway, I’d given up on submitting anything for this month’s post until I heard the familiar sound of the Garda Horses passing my bedroom window. I wanted to do something different to my usual stuff (whether that worked or not is up for debate though) so I broke out the marker and coloured pencils. I messed about with the levels a wee bit after scanning and darkened the black (’cause thanks to the aforementioned marker-wastage it was a tad patchy), but aside from that it’s 100% traditional.
