Another "real life" picture done with paint and pencils and everything.
Well...ink and guache and crayons to be exact.
Another large image.

Elliot Cowan said...: Thanks Tweedle.
The first images I ever saw by Tim Burton (who created TNBC) was a tiny sketch in the Batman Returns "making of" book.
Even though it was a tiny image, it was very influential.
I've since learned that Tim Burton was influenced by one of the worlds best illustrators, a chap called Edward Gorey, who I too was a big fan of when I was a kid.; 10:37 PM

Abuliac said...: (Sorry Blogger was being annoying and forced me to try posting the comment several times, but I forgot it puts the statement with the vague I-wonder-what-she-said-to-want-to-delete-it quality up.); 11:00 PM
Elliot Cowan said...: Periangel - Red noses are there because I thought it was about time I put some colour into my work.
It's interesting that you've noted them as noses as many people tend to think of them as an "L" for loser.
Tweedledopey - When you need to draw or paint or whatever you will do that very thing. I don't believe creativity is a thing we have much control over (well, I don't) and I do believe that if you really needed to do it, it would come.; 11:02 PM
Elliot Cowan said...: I had picked that there was some sort of connection.
Bring it on I say - the more the merrier.; 1:11 AM
