The dog looks like he's not enjoying the company!

Love this grouping both as individuals and together.

Excellent characters Lew, they guy in the bowler reminds me of the insurance man that used to collect the money when I was a nipper.

A good selection and humorous selection Lew. I feel that the pug, who does look worried, looks a little like the lady alongside him! Hope she doesn’t read this…

Gives a whole new meaning to FaceTime. Can't help but wonder what the lady and the pug have both noticed.

I'd love to see your version of Robin Hood and his merrie (deliberate) men Lew, I really would..(-:

Very good Lewis.

Thank you all very much for your comments. Always valued. Good idea Jim, I might do that, my art time is a bit fractured at the moment, it's good to have something in mind.

A wonderful combination of imaginative characters that you do so well Lewis. Agree with your take on pugs!

Yes, those Derwent solubles never do feel quite like the grade they're marked as being, but I believe you could draw with the sharp bit at the end of a shoelace if you chose to.

Great faces Lewis……the Pug looks like a caught in the headlights job! Lol

A wonderful range of characters. You have a wonderful knack of using lines and shading to create fantastic images. Great work Lewis!

So rich in the variety of characters you have portrayed here Lewis. Love the startled expression of the woman.

Not getting much done. Here's a page of sketches, done when I could fit them in. All from imagination...I've drawn Pug dogs in the past and thought I'd try one from memory. Didn't work out too well, but at least he looks worried. Pugs always look worried to me. Drawn with a Derwent soluble sketching pencil...light wash HB...doesn't seem like an HB, but great for quick sketches. Used wet and dry.

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.
