Widdy's back!

After a couple of weeks of almost total art block I have finally managed a couple of sketchbook pages.

I decided not to fight it this time and just stopped drawing and waited for it to pass. It has done me good actually as I now have the confidence to draw in my own (childlike) manner and to stop thrashing about searching for a "style"

Expect some more finished stuff soon. The ideas are flowing again.

Stay tuned! :teevee:

Hi Ivan.

I'm uninspired and hating the short winter days.

How are you?

Ditto on hating the short days. I'm studying and being sick periodically.

I received your ATC yesterday and I was so happy to open. Not only is Flying Niddles a great piece of art but it was packaged so beautifully. I felt like I was opening up a gift of the highest caliber. Thank you!
