Illustration Friday: Silent

I'm not sure why I like making winter scenes at the moment, as we are looking forward to the summer here in Australia. I think it must be a feeling of nostalgia for those cold, crisp winter nights, especially when the snow falls. My new work is of two foxes playing in the silent winter's night.

Illustration Friday; Fuel

Haven't entered IF for a few weeks. The word fuel inspired me to think of the snow and the need to keep warm, not that we have much snow in Australia!

Illustration Friday: Disguise

It's not Halloween yet!

Illustration Friday; Asleep

Asleep in the sunshine, dreaming of something nice to eat. My little cat spent most of her time in the garden asleep. She died aged eighteen but I'm sure I can still see her under a bush in a warm shady spot curled up in the sunshine, in the garden.

This illustration was made a few months ago but I thought it was a good one to put into this week's I F.

Illustration Friday "Beneath"

Beneath the stars and (Beneath the pigeon). Not a very good place to roost!
This was made using collage, drawing and photoshop. The picture is part of a series of drawings of a cat called Jack, an idea for a children's book.

Illustration Friday " Expired"

Illustration Friday " Perspective"

When you are looking for a mate, it puts life into perspective.
The blue wren is one of the smallest birds in australia. The male changes colour to blue in spring, to attract the female. They are sociable little birds and I love watching them hopping around in the bush.
