Olive Oyle goes to COOKING SCHOOL in Italy

Olive Oyle goes to Italy, 9″x12

This is a pen and ink wash drawing from a long time ago. Done with walnut ink and simple dip pen nib. I’m posting this to put a smile on somebody’s face if possible. Aren’t you just sick and tired of this sad world some days? Anyway, here she is in all her glory going to a famous cooking school in Tuscany. She believes she can turn a new leaf. What do you think?

Birdhouses

Birdhouses-WEB

These birdhouses are made of recycled materials found in anybody’s garden shed.  Whether wood or discarded metal fixtures or old roofing materials, the birds enjoy the shelter.

They are feeding on a gigantic sunflower center.  I took a little artistic license with the scale of the seed pod…because I can.  Moths and butterflies join in on the party.

The pen and ink is done in India Ink and an old fashioned crowquill pen nib.  The original is drawn on Bristol board paper, and has been sold but read on to purchase the image on various mediums.
