Piko The City Boy - A Chihuahua Looking For Love

I really do enjoy my job, a lot!
Not only do I get to draw, which I never tire of, but I also get to work with some lovely people.

Below is Piko, the grinning Chihuahua from last week.
My brief was as well as wearing a polka dot bow tie - " So the story in this picture tells that Piko is a cosmopolitan boy in New York searching for his partner"
What a nice thing to do : ) x

My next one is Piko's sister, Pixie. A mademoiselle in Paris.
I'll be posting soon.

Thanks Veronica for the great commissions.

Building ideas and playing!

Well using paints is something that seems a bit alien these days.
So used to pen and ink/collage.
But along the same lines as my floral doodles, I decided to get out the acrylics!
It's a bit of an assault to the eyes,  but I'm liking the marks and the difference a brush to create similar images.

I'm a bit like a child that has been given some neon paints to use, but just can't resist.
So ideas for pattern making and new work begins x

Been listening to far too much Radiohead, but they are so good.
