Illustration Friday: "Swarm"

















We've lived in our house for 15 years and never had any animal invasions except little field mice.  Until this week.  In the span of a week we had a squirrel in the chimney, and now one (or more) in the attic.  So I'm feeling a little swarmed.....by squirrels!

The idea was to put color into this illustration.  I'll still do that, but I just won't have time this week and I wanted to make sure to post this while "swarm" is still the Illustration Friday topic.  I haven't used colored pencils lately and I think they'll work perfectly to add color to this family.  As soon as it's colored I'll post an updated version.

Lost and Found






















I was cleaning out some old pads of paper and found this
tucked into the back of one of them.  I have no idea how
long ago I did this;  it's drawn from a photo of my niece
and she's a teenager now!

Illustration Friday: "Diary"



For this illustration I went back to my favorite pen and ink, this time with color! And inspired by Regency romance and Jane Austen.
