I love this. I also like minimlist line drawings...this is a stunner, though I might have made the feet a tad bigger. I am of to Chester Zoo tomorrow on and animal drawing day. I was going to take pencil but I think some pen/brush and ink. Thanks for the inspire.

I have looked up your Benjiman Chee Chee. They are really something. i can see where yooooooou are coming from after looking at those. Did my day at the Zoo band got some material to " simplify " We had a workshop there ru nby Mary Anne, it was a v good day.

Thanks one and all - yes I love simplified pictures. They look so easy and spontaneous but the key is careful planning which takes far longer than the final drawing - the same goes for the cartoons which I post from time to time. Anyway - pleased you really like them.

Another line drawing. I do love the simplicity of working like this - just a few lines can convey so much and I can scribble them out while watching the telly. Looking at this one afresh perhaps it could do with just a little more linework on the legs - but what the heck.....!
