A few images I've produced from places visited around the UK and France (St. Ives Cornwall, Oxford, Lyme Regis in Dorset and Toulouse in France).

I just wanted to capture the beauty of the architecture. These are some random sketches i made to express my view.

Ink on scratchboard, 8x10”.

I draw circles ALL the time....everywhere. I am not sure why, sometimes I think it would be neat to make a nice piece of art of these.

Beer Label design incorporating lots of local facts/things to do with the area it's brewed in. Sailing, windsurfing, big lake, spitfire plane, invading shrimps, highland cattle, sunken church, snakes, beer swilling octopus (ok I made that one up).

The topic was drool. Just getting through my backlog of dooooodles.

Second drawing in my Doodle Addicts sketchbook. I have other marker colors but I could probably get by with just these.

Older picture I've done. At that time I wasn't used to using references, but instead I did everything from my head, as I imagined them. And this time I wanted to create a lonely arctic fox with a warmer atmosphere surrounding the animal.
