C is for… Cat!
C is for… Cat!
“C”, is for, “Cat”, of course. And, “Castle”. And, “Cream”. And, “Cushion”. And, “Crown”. And, “Chain”. And, “Claws”. It’s hard to stop thinking of things that begin with a, “C”, now.

L is for…. Lizards!… and a Lightbulb
L is for…. Lizards!… and a Lightbulb
How many lizards does it take to change a light bulb? I have no idea, but I’m guessing three?

N is for… North Pole!
N is for… North Pole!
The North Pole is very cold and dark. Deaf Inuits had to dispense with mittens and invent special gloves in order to sign at each other.

Just realised that this is the second “M” that I’ve done. whoops!

W is for… Witch!
W is for… Witch!
Witch! Or Wand? Or Worm?… So many potential Ws. This is a pertinently Halloween-themed sign-letter drawing. W is the most difficult letter of the alphabet to draw. It’s all those fingers sticking out all over the place. Here’s another witch, but I didn’t think she was characterful enough to make the final cut.

O is for… Octopus!
O is for… Octopus!
Not sure about this one…. I’ll sit on for a bit and see what I think in a few days time… I did try a more “anatomically correct” version of the octopus (below), but everyone in my family seem to prefer the octopus with the silly mouth. Boo to anatomically correct(er) octopuses!

A is for… Alligator
A is for… Alligator
If one tries to add alligator scales to human hands, they start to look like they belong to the Creature From the Black Lagoon (sans webby bits). Who knew this would happen?

B is for… Binoculars
B is for… Binoculars
Ok, I know I’m going to have to come back and re-do this one, in order to shave Sailor Bob’s Beard off. Also binoculars might be a bit over-ambitious. Maybe it really needs to be something else that begins with a B (a bee?). I’ll let it go for now though! Here is an earlier, […]

T is for… Train!
T is for… Train!
T is for train. A steam train, obviously.

Putting stripes on the hands was probably a mistake… I’ll go with it for now though!

K is for… Knight!
K is for… Knight!

R is for Rockets!
R is for Rockets!
How can a, “R”, ever stand for anything else?
November 11, 2015
Q is for… Queen!
Q is for… Queen!
Those watercolour washes weren’t really washing it with me. I’ve tried to pare it back a bit here. I think it looks a bit better.

You can never go wrong with dinosaurs.

The Letter “M”
The Letter “M”
Ok, here’s me trying something a bit different. I’m a bit worried that those hands are looking a bit too, “Hands of God”, though….
