This is the original piece that I took my avatar from. He’s about 25×20cm, watercolour etc on canvas. There is iridescent leaf applied to the wing panes but can’t see it in the photo.
He lools sneaky…and cheeky! – love him – It does’t matter that we can’t see the irridescence, he knows its there – that’s why he looks so pleased with himself.
Your works really stand out. Beautifully drawn and vibrant with colour. I like the humour in some too. You’re on my watchlist and I’m looking forward to more.
oh the labyrinth is firedrakes secret place of birth… maybe her dad is really Bowie ;-) i love the fact that this guy is tubby, what a character. his arm gives him a mad scientist kind of look.
This is unbelievably cool. Where did this little dood get his headgear made? Nothing wrog with David Bowie in tights… I think. When you’re David Bowie you can get away with that kind of stuff. It would have broken most men.

Amelia Earhart…I have an awesome leather flying cap like hers. Sometimes I wear it while I’m painting..like a ‘thinking cap’!

cute! great character! tho i would feel unsafe with the fact that he can fly.. wouldnt know what he would get up to
Firedrake, 7 months ago
He flies. But he’s a bit tubby as you can see. So he flies quite close to the ground.

My dad? Ew! I used to have a crush on Jareth..when I was young and innocent and the tight trousers didn’t scare me.
KellyThomas, 2 months ago
haha. tight trousers and bowie will ALWAYS be hot and not scary. well ‘always’ for another 5 years any way ;-)

Heehee! I watched it so many times when I was young. Then I saw it again at about 19…the tights…the horror

Yes I agree, David Bowie is in a league of coolness unattainable by most mortals!
