Wrapped!



Thanks to Illustration Friday for preventing artist block! Being a commercial artist I get use to someone telling me what to do and how to do it. Sometimes getting started on my own idea or project is hard and of course the "Blank sheet of Paper" can be an artists worst nightmare. The suggested topic this week was "Wrapped", heres my stab at it.

  2. Clever idea! Very cute. I can relate to artist's block. It happens to every artist at some point or another. Love the illustration!

  13. Genius, man! I love it. Smart and funny, a perfect combination. I know exactly how you feel being a commercial artist and getting used to someone else dictating the subject matter. Well done, man! Also, thanks for the kind words on my mummy for this week's topic. I appreciate that!
