Inspiration

[elingregory]

Last week I saw a picture that I enjoyed so much I had to draw my own. I don't often get the urge to draw these days. It's so much easier to describe with words than fiddle around with pencils. But yesterday I bashed out a sketch at lunch time.

Here is the inspiration - "Pan with Bats" by Allen Todd Yeager - an image of such joy and innocence that it made me choke up a bit. [It's safe to click - the link takes you to the artist's own website. Just be prepared for some NSFW images if you have a browse there].

And here's mine -  Enter your cut contents here.

"Faun, unaware of how cold the water is". Oh that was such fun to draw. I'll tart it up a bit next week.

Oh wow. I'm muchly impressed!

Have you read Trebor Healey's new novel - 'Faun'?

:) thanks

No I haven't. I'll have a look for it. Thanks for the recc.

Years ago I started writing my own faun story - about a parish clerk called Gilbert Wainscot who has an accident and grows cute little horns and a tail - but in those days I never finished anything I started. i ought to look it out again. I loved Gilbert.

You should, and I would cheer you every step of the way! You know how much I used to love Gil as well!
