On illustration friday, Pippa was spotted jogging in Hyde Park, London,
Wearing tight lycra jogging pants and a striped top, Pippa caught the eye and apparently the heart of Terry as he walked the adorable Winston on a long lead.
Oh my, so very original! Totally love all your teeny detail work. I love Terry's expression but Winston is the best! Ha, so hilarious. (Also, my dog is named Wilson and people call him Winston all the time). ;)
I agree with Cindy...very original! Great composition of stripes. Winston is the perfect name for a dog--and your Winston looks like Winston Churchill's dog--!
Thanks Cindy D. I just had a premonition that I'll be carrying on in conversation about 'Wilson' Churchill and Great Britain during wartime. Give your boy a pat for me.
Thanks for your comments Kerry S, Wendy C, deer P, Leen's & Caitlin R. After many years of commercial illustration and children's books it's nice to return here to what I consider my more 'natural' hand and humour with these series of illustrations.
Hi Sadhvi, I been liking the process of trying to have the contrasting elements work together. I could spend a lifetime creating and playing with the background texture variations. Speaking of backgrounds, I had a look at your post http://pinkspool.blogspot.com/2011/12/illustration-friday-round.html The 'background' environment of the little sprout forest is fantastic and it gives your potter character with her lovely colours and enormous cool braid a nice whimsical feel. Especially in the first photo.

ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth, I like how stripes can break up the picture plane into different levels and in this case paths.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Love the play of colors. My mother has a dog named Winston.
ReplyDeleteGot here from Illustration Friday; the style on this is very original!
ReplyDeleteAmazing style and great colours, too. The stripes tell the story.
ReplyDeleteYou have a great style with all the details in it! Your characters are so expressive and funny!
ReplyDeleteI love this. Great job!

ReplyDeleteI like the contrast of black detailed characters and simple colored background, it looks really interesting.
