Illustration Friday (Saturday for me - I'm in the southern hemisphere): REMEMBER


Other ideas I had: somebody sitting by a gravestone or a cross, like a small boy or a dog; somebody looking into a glass of wine, smiling; somebody digging out an old mandolin from a dusty box. Come to think of it, I like those ideas better than the one I ended up with, especially the mandolin one.

I really love your style. On the subject of ideas v. reality: of course the drawing in your head is always better than the one you just did! That is the way our artist brains work, I think. But, this drawing is wonderful!

You do have such a great style, it´s so fresh and full of life and feeling. And you certainly have lots of great ideas, including the one you used for this drawing!
