remember when you were young?

Well, folks. I've been busy drawing away but this, yet again, is another secret squirrel project. For now, anyway. This is a little snippet (isn't that a great word?) of the illustration I have been working on. It's a one-off drawing from a children's book. I'll reveal it all when I get the go ahead. Also, I believe that this image should be available in some form or other (postcard, I think) in the near future. Not sure how much more I'm allowed to say so I'll keep my trap shut. 'Cos, you know I'm good at that.

what a delightful drawing! i love that every time you look at it, you see something new. it brings to mind that drawing you did, "grandma's jewelry" or something like that, that's chock full of details that reveal something new each time. so much fun! great job, i triple love it and can't wait to see the full picture. oh-h, the suspense ;)

Cheers folks.

No, you guys, it's from John Lennon. "Remember when you were young, how the hero was never hung". Of course, I'm now singing along to Crazy Diamond.

Yeah, an I Spy book is something I'd love to do. I love the photographed ones but a drawn version would be right up my street.

Debra, I wish I had an aunt like that.

Cheers, me dears.
