Description This loose pen & ink drawing with washes of watercolour represents an archetypical Aussie bloke driving a classic Grey Fergie tractor.

This style of work harkens back to my days as a young cartoonist for a youth paper. It was my first regularly paid art jobs!

Greeting cards of 'Man's Best Friend' can be purchased from Creations in a Teapot .

Absolutely you can say that! I love to hear someone thinks my drawings are full of life. The execution of the piece is as important as the final product. When I'm running workshops for kids I always underline the importance of the expression conveyed by the lines/paint strokes

It took me a bit to come up with a word that summed up how I feel about this piece. The word I came up with was "charming." As always, good stuff!

Sweet simplicity... I love how you implied colours and added touches of pastels. Very nice!

Cheers. Yeah, in this case the colour is secondary to the line work.
