Bob at the Beach

Bob and his llama are bringing a picnic lunch to the beach. The llama is also bringing a beach umbrella, and some blankets to sit on. Bob is ready for the sun and the sand in a short-sleeved sweater, shorts, and espadrilles. I love "shopping" for Bob's pieces in old photographs and fashion plates. In this pen sketch, his look is a mish-mash of the resort-wear in the two beautiful 1930s fashion plates below.

 

Playing Cards

At last, another larger scale illustration complete! Here, Bob joins his llama in a game of Gin Rummy. The llama can't really hold up his hand, so, Bob has to be a good sport and keep his eyes off his buddy's cards. I used my new colored pencil technique on both their faces.
