Skis

We are in the middle of another big snow-storm, so I decided to make a pen sketch of Bob and his llama, getting ready for some winter fun.

Bob is keeping warm in wool plus fours, a turtle neck sweater and a jacket. Both his look and pose are inspired by the beautiful 1930s fashion illustration on the right. Instead of ski poles, though, Bob is carrying a leather harness, and the llama has on his protective leather sport boots; ready to lead his friend through the powder! Next I will have to finish a color illustration of skis, harness, llama, and Bob, all working together.
