Look what THEY drawed... Me!

I'm frequently drawing people on the train/tube/DLR/Overground.
I find it's a good way to pass the time during journeys and also is good practice for drawing different faces and expressions.

But today I was drawn by someone else while I was on the Overground to Wapping! I look very sophisticated! haha

I noticed that he was sketching, but didn't know he was drawing me! Then before I got off, he tore the page out and gave it to me, with his facebook page to upload it to. You can check out his page here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Inexmetris/358371295376?sk=wall

Look what THEY drawed - Happy Birthday to me!

So yesterday was the 30th anniversary of my arrival into the world, and some of my very talented friends made me some amazing birthday cards!

I'm starting work at the National Gallery at the end of the month as a Gallery Assistant, although after seeing the gallery bought to life by Agustin Coll in this brilliant illustration, I'm a bit scared about starting work there... hehe



Aine Cassidy made me this gorgeous card...



Paul Giles (A.K.A. Mister Giles) drew this awesome portrait of me (complete with Super Mario mushrooms!).



Jo Cogan drew this great caricature of me...



...inspired by this photo of me when I was a kid (I haven't changed a bit...ahem)!



And Yuki Nishimura made me this amazing Scott Pilgrim-inspired card! Love it!! :-)



Thanks a lot! And to everyone else that sent me a card and wished me Happy Birthday yesterday!

Look What They Drawed...

So, yesterday was my birthday, and I got a lot of hand-drawn cards from my friends which I wanted to share. As someone who is always drawing cards for other people, it was really nice to get some of my own, so thanks to everyone!
