Heidi asleep

I've made a painting for a friend who wanted a picture of Heidi's bed in the hayloft. So that meant I had to go back and read parts of the book again. As bedrooms go it does sound magic

As she lay on the large soft bed in the hay loft, with Heidi near her, she looked out through the round open window right into the middle of the shining clusters of stars...

trouble dressing

living statues

These are drawings from a book I just finished last week. It's very short, and has no words, and I can't tell whether the story makes sense or not... also some of the work is pretty scruffy thanks to my using soft coloured pencils without realising they smudge so easily. But as a first try with the crayons, I do like parts of it. the top two details especially. It's getting closer to a kind of drawing I'm chasing after at the moment.

the nerdiest bear yet...

supermarket sweep

Some drawings I made after the first story about Jack and Joan was finished. This is really just a very short and simple joke about a trip to the supermarket, but i'm pleased with some of the drawings for the way everything's fitted together on the page much better than i ever managed before.

Jack and Joan at the seaside

A few pictures from the sequence I just finished, that runs alongside the cat sequence (which I posted some images from earlier). The whole sequence is now on Flickr if you're interested to read Jack and Joan's entire adventure: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bereckah/
