The trees definitely look like they are on the attack Lewis. Perfect antagonists for such a cosy cabin. Hope everything works out ok for you. All the best for 2019.

A great take on the original Lewis! I love the wolf and the little person in the window, and yes the trees are scary! Happy New Year to you and yours.

My thoughts very seldom translate to paper either Lewis but as in this one often produce very pleasing work. Hope to see more of your work once things calm down a bit.

Thanks very much for the great feedback, and for your acceptance of my strange trees...a touch of the 'Day of the Triffids' in there. I wish you all health and happiness in the new year.

Love this interpretation, Lewis, in your highly original style - the menacing trees are splendid!

Wonderful Lewis, I almost expected to see faces camouflaged in the trees as well. Love how you have handled the snow shadows.

Don't normally do these things, but thought I'd have a go. Sorry if you've seen it on the forum, but not everybody reads that, so I thought I'd post it here. My idea was to make it 'threatening'. With the trees adding to the threat...the idea in my head didn't quite translate to paper. (It seldom does.) But that's why the trees look a bit manic. Pen and watercolour in my A3 sketchbook.

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.
