Hey Paul! Really enjoy your work and style. This one reminds me of a teacher i once had. A good one, which I guess is rare!

Keep drawing. Love to see more.

Sorry, haven’t read the book yet. But Dr. Dillamond looks very wise – in a goaty sort of way!
Great drawing! :)

Let me guess.. you were drawing the goat in your kitchen and he knocked the tea pot over !

Its getting so bad.. I knocked a cup of coffee over this morning and spent 10 minutes studying its artistic possibilities. I’m feeling a tea stain inspired work coming on !

Go for it Andy – embrace the spillage. Thanks for commenting.

Andy Mercer, 2 months ago

Does it have to be any particular tea ?

Paul Compton in reply to Andy Mercer’s comment, 2 months ago

Not decaffeinated. I like a nice Earl Grey or Chai but the choice is yours.

tea drawing… as in painting with tea??? confused

Paul Compton in reply to mindylynn’s comment, 2 months ago

I’m sorry I confused you. The eyes, tone around the head and splashes were made with tea and applied with a brush.

mindylynn, 2 months ago

so… i could paint with tea! =] have you heard of the guy who does ‘puke paintings’? they’re really gross, but its kinda cool how he has a gallery and people buy his art…

Paul Compton in reply to mindylynn’s comment, 2 months ago

No, I’ve never heard of the “puke guy” – but I know I’ll never be inviting him over for dinner : )

mindylynn, 2 months ago

haha, its crazy, i saw it on ripleys once. i am going to have to try out this tea thing soon.
