Now fully recovered following the extreme sport squirrel (he jumped 20 feet from a tree, narrowly missing my head - I may have mentioned it) I've decided to try a little loosening up exercise.
I've been agonising over every minute detail of my art recently, I'm not sure it's entirely healthy. I'm about embark on a toucan and a penguin illustration, so, with the hope of avoiding another tortuous few days I decided to give myself 30 minutes to draw, colour and upload a toucan and penguin to my blog - and to approach the art in a new way.
I had to extend my deadline very slightly, as the penguins at Cincinatti Zoo made me giggle too much.

I don't know if it was an entirely successful exercise but I've definitely taken something from it - and I think it's sharpened me up ahead of the work ahead. So that's nice.
Wish I'd coloured the toucan at the bottom, mind you...
