I added a little fin, because everything's cuter with an inconspicuous limb or two (just look at the T-Rex). Turns out that it's probably a tongue-eating parasite... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/11392825/Mystery-tuna-creature-is-tongue-eating-parasite-says-expert.html

Daily

Two daily doodles in a row. Who would've thunk it. I might actually stick to it this time.

Go buy their coffees if you're in Raumati or the Hutt...

Might have to have another go at this one. Needs a cup dispenser and more straps and controls.

doodle schmoodle

With a pile up of freelance, and the recent arrival of our second baby, I've been suffering from doodler's block. So to break that I'm having a go at a daily doodle warm up before work. Today's could do with a lot more work, but then it wouldn't be a doodle.

Wild Things illustrations

Some spot-the-difference illustrations for Wild Things, the Kiwi Conservation Club member magazine put out by Forest & Bird.

They all came with how-to-draw activities.

Here's some choice examples sent in by readers...

Anti-Rex

As a prompt to get back into posting regularly, here's a warm up doodle for the day ahead. Got some dinosaur and Tuatara commissions to get done, so this is to get me into the paleo-art mindset.

Ye Olde Imagery Menagerie, closed for business

Though the gallery closed on xmas eve, I've officially ended the lease and shipped out. A few parting shots. It's been great having a public space to show my tack, and talk crap. Now it's time to knuckle down on full time freelance and dig out some long forgotten personal projects (and get my weekends back after three years). I'm sure there'll be a Dittybox shop V.02 at some point in the near future, but for now I'm displaying recent paintings at Floyds cafe, 130 The Parade, Island Bay, Wellington. Prints, tea towels, paintings etc will also soon be available via a relaunched website at dittybox.co.nz. for commissions, I'm still available via gavin@dittybox.co.nz
