One Hundred Days no.100 (what home means to me on some days!)

In reality, a lot of the time home means...


And that's it! I've finished my one hundred drawings at last! What next? I guess I'll just keep on going, only without the numbers. It's not as if I've been keeping to my task very diligently lately anyway!

One Hundred Days no.99

I'm being a bit cruel, but really, people are starting to discuss how better to cull the urban fox population because of this 'fox mauls twins' news story. Honestly! Freak incident causes mass panic... the usual in Britain.

One Hundred Days no.98

Such negativity!

One Hundred Days no.97

crawling towards the finish line...

One Hundred Days no.96

My friend the garlic lover again.

One Hundred Days no.95

Ever drooled on your favourite toy in your sleep?

One Hundred Days no.94

I love how my neighbours yell at their insane dog as if he understands what they are saying.

One Hundred Days no.93

A quick one today. Remember to eat your greens or your tentacles won't grow nice and long.

One Hundred Days no.92

Oh dear. I seem to have been stumbling at the last hurdle with these drawings. This is how I feel after the weekend I've just had. Lazy drawing. Sorry.

One Hundred Days no.91

I'm busy on an illustration job today, so here's an onion for now :-)

One Hundred Days no.90

Another thing involving vinegar...

One Hundred Days no.89

So I didn't draw any ferrets, but I did draw a bottle of vinegar.

Happy weekend all. I am off to visit my family in Birmingham.

I'm falling behind with this. Never mind. This one today is a 'default mode' drawing - another inexplicable human-animal interaction. Maybe it's a snapshot of some conversation that's going on inside my head...

I'll see if I have something more interesting to say for myself later today.

Here's something I drew in London at the Hunterian Museum last week.

Have a good weekend, all - I hope the nice weather holds out!

POLITICAL ANIMALS GUIDEBOOK 2010 - NO. 0146
SPECIES: Liberattus nondescriptis
DESCRIPTION: This particular animal has few distinguishing features other than an outwardly pleasant nature and eagerness to please (Fig. 1). Whilst being somewhat spineless in appearance, and lacking in muscular tone, this creature can sometimes display an alarmingly changeable nature (Fig. 2) so caution is advised when handling.

That's the last one until I return next week. Not the best thought-out, but you know...

One Hundred Days - no. 85

POLITICAL ANIMALS GUIDEBOOK 2010 - NO. 0037
SPECIES: Toryboyus unpopularis
DESCRIPTION: A fine, upstanding creature, this bird is bred from excellent stock and carries great credentials yet it cannot understand why no-one likes it.
CHARACTERISTICS: A distinctive call that sounds like a piteous 'trust me! trust me!' repeated often and with increasing desperation.

One Hundred Days - no. 84

I've decided to skip weekend 'one hundred' drawings because they inevitably end up being drawn in a rush on Sunday afternoon. I will keep to weekdays from now on.

This one is for you and your boyfriend, Laura. (I tried others, porn included (!) but this one turned out the best - a beery unicorn after a night out with the lads) x

One Hundred Days - no. 83

POLITICAL ANIMALS GUIDEBOOK 2010 - NO.0068C
SPECIES: Lapinus labourius (flatulentis)
DESCRIPTION: Once a popular choice, this particular breed of rabbit has become somewhat inbred in recent years and now suffers from a whole host of disorders that have emerged in the most recent generation. Symptoms include severe flatulence, eye problems (blindness, tendency to look in the opposite direction from where it is going), respiratory difficulties and emotional instability. No longer suitable for most domestic environments, this animal is best kept in outdoor pens and handled with extreme caution.

Thanks for your suggestions - I will try to do all of them at some point! They are all great. Today, I thought I'd kick things off with the Labour Party. I have very few political leanings and am mostly a greeny neutral/ignorant sort of person. I am tempted to spoil my ballot paper instead of voting. So these pictures don't really say anything at all about what I think of the parties.

A penguin for Kat and Laura.

How about this for an idea: write requests for things for me to draw in the comments section of my posts e.g. an animal, or several animals/people, or some kind of interaction, like 'a mongoose eating a pineapple', 'two canaries fighting over a sausage'. Go on. It'll be fun! I think I need to be brought out my dog/rodent comfort zone for the final push!

One Hundred Days - no. 81

Back in the comfort zone...
