On a black blast patterned background, a giant orange pumpking carved stands behind the red onion and carrot. Linoprint on paper.

The main character looks through a car window to point of view from outside the car, he holds a teddy of Nessy while looks to the Forth Bridges in awe. These are reflecting on the window for us to appreciate. In the illustration we can read “From time to time I travel to Scotland to visit my sister” The main characters finally together shows they have different interests. Both of them are together strolling down a park on a sunny day, on the background we can appreciate Arthur Seat rising above the ground, the sister points to it while calling for her brother. The brother is distracted appreciating a spider on a cobweb. He is smiling. A line of trees directs the eyes of the spectator from the characters to the views. A far away person walks their dog in the meantime. In the illustration we can read: “While I love bugs, She really loves the views.” Cenital point of view from above, both characters are together next to a river and surrounded by different and colorful plants. The boy is pleasantly surprised, there is a crab inside a bucket. The sister is smiling at him while clutching down. A heartwarming scene showing the relationship between the two characters. Under a cloudy sky the siblings have a fun day out in the Isle of Sky. We can see on the ground one of the footprints of a dinosaur. The sister, on the right, pretends to act like a T-Rex for the amusement of the little brother who is laughing on the left of the picture. Blue is the predominant colour on the illustration where we can read: “One of my favourite places is where the dinosaurs left a mark.”

Is that time of the year, is #artvsartist2024 to see what are the highlighted posts!
I have modified to include some of my favs as I feel is unfair they didn’t reach the highlight.

Anyhow, share yours!

It was supposed to be for #whatsonside by #picturehooks
But me believing I was smarter than a cookie ignored reading the actual prompt.
This is why, reading is FUNDAMENTAL!
I’ll blame it on the ‘tism.

3 men cross a river to get into an island, they navigate on a small boat, it is very foggy but you can see the high cliffs of the island on the horizon.

If you see this, post something green 🍃🌿

A dried tree stands in front of a barrage of tall grass, there is an old metallic item used for water pressured pipes in front of it. The colour green predominates the environment while the red-brown colours of the tree makes it stand out, the highlights were made by scrapping the paper.

On of my most beautiful pages for the #graphicnovel of the #beewitch
Sadly the characters design evolved so needs redoing
A comic page with a sequence, the beewitch is unable to control their emotions and ends up (literally) blowing up which will summon a storm. After it, they are exhausted and fall to the ground unconcious. With luck, their friend the Snail is there to catch them up with a leaf.

Another of my linocut pieces which will be in the #RSA in #Edinburgh for sale!
Was inspired by the (untrue) story of Bobby :3
Linocut on white background. The scene is in a cemetery, there is a dog in front of a couple of graveyards.
