Love this...what was the super pencil lumagraph 7h or timagraph? Must be going deaf 🤣🤣🤣 btw saying about the eyes resonated BIG time! Someone in earshot said recently my work was mediocre..like being stabbed a hundred times, yet same day a magazine article 2 page spread was published and my work is to be featured on a big publicity drive locally....but the one comment cut to the quick as they say...hmm x

I think this box of 50 colored pencils by Crayola is the cat's arse. And I swear by Flair Paper Mate felt tip pens.

I loved watching this! I’m so glad that one of your posts showed up in my feed earlier this year. I’m guessing it was about Otto the Top Dog, my son’s name is Otto so that name always catches my eye. I looked at your feed and fell in love with your illustrations and subscribed. I’ve checked out some of your books from our local library system and read them over and over to my 3 year old grandson. I just put a hold on some other ones last night. I also ordered Five Bears as a birthday gift for his 4th birthday at the end of the month.

Most of my Substack subscriptions are political so thank you for giving me a fun break from that with your adorable drawings and entertaining videos. ❤️
