As a survivor of several attempts and having lost good friends to suicide, I’ve decided to take on the challenge of walking 5K everyday in May to raise funds for CALM, a charity that gives vital suicide prevention support.

I’d love to raise £125. www.justgiving.com/fundraising/...

I’ve just created a membership tier on my ko-fi page for £1 a month. Every fortnight I’ll share a sketched portrait like these. Members can send in requests for my next sketches. It’s an easy and low cost way to regularly support my art. ❤️ ko-fi.com/alfiewhitby/...

Count Duckula might be a delicious snack but the vampire carrot? Fang-tastic. I’ll get my coat.

Haven’t drawn my favourite vegetarian vampire duck for a while. Feeling nostalgic.

We’re in the process of redecorating the bathroom so have stripped the wallpaper. Every time I go in the room I see this little wise mouse with a staff within the dirt patterns on the old plaster. Finally brought him to life on my iPad! 🐭 What do you see?

I sketched this Celtic FC Christmas card idea a couple years back and didn’t get around to finishing it. Is 2025 the year I restart the tradition? 🤔🍀

The photos of the full dress have other folks in them which I can’t share but I can share this selfie which gives hints of the dress (also includes new haircut and my re-pierced nose) 😁

It’s been a little while since I sketched one of the Celtic bhoys. This one has been in my “to sketch” album as soon as I saw it. Daizen Maeda really putting in the effort this season. 💚🍀😇

Show me a pic from your phone that has your energy, not a selfie

If you see this, post a beach pic from your gallery.

I’ve had the best time with these legends. The 3 days of music research and development with Dark Horse Theatre whooshed by. As a parting gift (until phase two in January) I drew everyone a cartoon portrait inspired by their individual music themes we worked on! 💖

The rewatch is well underway so thought I’d add the (quite obviously official) deleted scene I drew a few years back. 😆

Final day in Huddersfield (until January) with the Dark Horse Theatre ensemble tomorrow. Getting to work with these amazing actors who have learning disabilities has been incredible. A massive confidence boost for me too. Making music with everyone, ah, what a joyous experience!

Happy Doctor Who Day! 61 years of that silly time travel phone box space show. I originally drew this cartoon in 2018 feat just the 13th Doctor. I’ve gradually added more Doctors over the years. Today, I drew in some sassy Masters squeezing in for the selfie. Rude! 😂

Good morning, folks. I have been truly nithered 🥶 on the way to Huddersfield today but it was very pretty and felt like walking through a Christmas card. Having a coffee before heading to Lawrence Batley theatre to make some music. 🎵

I’m so excited to be working with this amazing ensemble from Dark Horse Theatre tomorrow in Huddersfield. We’ll be creating some music together. Definitely throwing some shapes and, hopefully, having a bit of fun too as we develop musical ideas for an upcoming performance project. Whoop!

Good morning! It’s a bit chilly here in West Yorkshire and there’s a bit of snow forecast. Stay warm, folks!

No chill has ever reached as deep into my bones as the Baltic bite I felt when I lived in the Scottish Highlands. Brrrrr! 🥶

Good morning, folks. May your day be excellent. May your feet be warm.

Only ever nabbed a coffee to-go from Squeeze in Hebden Bridge but we stopped for food today and OH MY GOD these are some of the best tacos I’ve ever had. Almost on par to some we had in New York. Delicious.

ICONIC!! 🔥🍀🔥

So iconic I had to draw it, obviously. 😁

I love the Hebden Bridge Heron. Always feel like the day will be a good one if I see it. I don’t think your truly live in Hebden if your phone doesn’t contain loads of photos like this. Haha!

I loved the Flux and I also took it very seriously. Flashback Friday to that time I drew silly Thirteenth Doctor things for fun. #DoctorWho
