Soul to keep

More new work...

S'wunderful

This is a new piece I made,

it took my whole life to make it.

Or maybe three months, I can't remember.

Anyway, it's titled

'Wunderkammer'

and it comes in 5x7, A4 or A3

(it looks good big if I do say so myself!)

and it is a new style that I have been working on

which combines traditional drawing with digital colouring.

It's kind of my new thing.

Also, I have been delaying the inevitable,

but it seems like everyone has a Facebook fan page these days,

so I thought it was time I jump on the bandwagon.

(At the moment, i'm the only one who likes it,

which makes it even more embarrassing.)
