I love the quirky expressions that some animals can come up with. This guy was sitting on my clothesline one day so I just had to draw him.

The original is coloured pencil and ink on board. I carved the background pattern out of lino myself, but credit must be given to Rhonna Farrer for the use of her stamps in the foreground.

    - I love the detail in the feathers.
    And the light blue outline adds a very nice touch.
