a sketch a figure which is half female and half male

Compare Genders

Just a little sketch I did, to explore a poster idea. The left half of the figure is female and the right half is male. I tried to exagerate the features of each gender, but balance them out too. Her hip is wide, and his shoulder is wide. Her shoulder is narrow and his hip is narrow.

Grand Granny Entrance

Page 2 of Emma and the Granny Fairies is up! This took sooo long. I was using a new program, called Inkscape; so as well as making the page, I was also trying to familiarise myself with some slightly unfamiliar controlls. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out though. In the blue corner is Granny Snip, she's the stern one, who lets you know where you stand. And in the peach corner is Granny Snap, who is affectionate but not very reasonable.

Urban Oddities

Dublin is an old, damp, mossy city. Everywhere you look you are likely to see some vegetation, whether intentionally or not. I took a few pictures today of an old area, full of brick and strange pipes. It's so mysterious. The plants are trying to claim bits of it back for themselves.
