You Can Count On Me
Black Marker and Felt Pen
Concept: I did this portrait of Mel the Panda, I think he’s less exposed as compared to Ophelia the Owl and Phoebe the Bunny :D Mel is the one whom we can count on when we need a listening ear and when we can turn to for advice when we feel helpless and alone. I chose Mel to be a panda because like the pandas, he’s an endangered animal….not too many in this world :D He always dresses the same, black and white with polka dotted ribbon(unlike the other 2 :D), gives the rest the impression that he’s of a predictable and stable temperament. I decided to put on a special ribbon for him today, hope you like this little tweak :D
