Well, if it is an oldie then it is a golden one. I have to say I am tempted to feel that way after two Christmas related disappointments yesterday.

Brilliantly drawn Lewis and thank you for starting the Pencil thread on the forum, it got me back to using them and I'm enjoying them.

Here he comes again! Is it something to do with age? I haven’t put anything up yet and I’m already looking to January….😳

Great drawing Lewis. It's all the Christmas songs on the radio that drive me mad and they start in November.

Fantastic!!

I can't help but smile at the humorous nature of your work but what amazes me is the impressive draughtsmanship which makes each picture a serious work of art.

What's the meaning of all this merriment going on? "Every idiot who goes about with 'Merry Christmas' on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart." So there... An oldie. Dark Indigo coloured pencil.

About the Artist

Lewis Cooper

Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
