Technically I don't know if I approve of the new Paddington Bear. He looks a little too bear like (as in real bear, bear who would eat you kind of bear) rather than the scruffy, slightly wonky bear I remember.
However, there's no doubting that he has style. Duffle coat, shiny boots, vintage suitcase and cosy hat? Yes please.
It's been a morning of discoveries. There's nothing better than unearthing forgotten work in a random sketchbook. My problem is that I'm addicted to buying sketchbooks without finishing others first hence a collection of half filled books scattered about!
Technically these should be doodles of chocolate eggs given the time of year but fruit and veg are so much more interesting to draw (although not necessarily as tasty!)
Phew! It's been a week of work and deadlines but hopefully it will all be worth it, I'll have a few exciting bits and pieces to show soon!
In the mean time enjoy some pics of vegetables (I have no idea why I got the urge to draw these but I enjoyed it anyway!). I've always found artichokes to be beautiful in a strange way, as demonstrated here, here and here (the final one reminds me of a peacock feather) and after a little bit of digging, I realise I'm not the only one to be influenced by them.
