The Glorious 25th of May!

Hello friends! 

Welcome back…unless this is first time you’ve read one of my posts, then, hey! How ya doing and most importantly welcome!! 

Tomorrow is The Glorious Twenty-Fifth of May and I’ve got a new piece of hand lettering art to share with you this week. Truth, justice, freedom, reasonably priced love and a hard boiled egg!

The Grim Squeaker At Hogswatch

Happy Christmas!

On this beautiful Christmas Eve I’d like to wish everyone a truly Merry Christmas and a Happy Hogswatch, this is a little illustration of the Grim Squeaker (AKA The Death of Rats) from Terry Pratchett’s who appears throughout the Discworld series from Reaper Man onwards. I’ve drawn him as the Hogfather to celebrate 50 years of Terry.

I hope all of your dreams come true.

Mind how you go!
