Illustration Friday: Surrender
Never give up! Never surrender!
Though sometimes possibly surrendering is a better idea...
It's interesting how one line can change an entire drawing. I intended this to be a straightforward image - an abandoned old house surrendering to the sea. But one misplaced line later and suddenly the house was occupied; and a metaphor for the things we humans sometimes try to hold on to, long after we probably should have let them go.

Illustration Friday: Dusty
The Sky Full Of Dust...
Glitter on black mount board.
Dusty, to me, will always mean the stellar dust of a nebula. I guess that means I'm not quite down to Earth... I tried out a couple of different ways of creating nebulas before settling on this one as my favourite. Here are a few more of them:

| Chalk Nebula #1 |
