New look and feel!

Hi Guys and girls,

I have given my blog a facelift. Initially I started up a new website, which can be found at www.inkjourney.com, that is still active and alive, but I just feel I can't let me fans down here.

I hope you like the new look. It is certainly something I can identify with.

I love ink but lately all my work has been digital.

Christchurch, where I live, has had another big earthquake and the entire east is dealing with the aftermath. So that means for me, time to draw to keep sane.

Enjoy the new look!

New pictures coming soon.

All bottled UP - Illustration Friday 15

Legend has it that there was a box full of all the bad in the world, in my case it was a tempting bottle full of the bad in the world. Kinda reflects my mood about a lot of things at the moment, what with so much happening in the world, earthquakes, sorrow, mine explosions, nuclear power plants melting down, and general pollution. Not to mention the wars over oil and ideology, gunfire, riots, arson and political unrest in Africa.


So here's my take on the situation. No matter how many depressing things there are out there we also need to look for hope.
Let me know what you think about my drawing (constructive criticism of course) and I will really appreciate it.

Have a boring, uneventful day, and walk away smiling.
