Urban & Wild

Urban

Last week, the topic for Illustration Friday was "Urban."  An image of mice below the subway was my solution.  I worked about half way through the drawing before the dreaded thing happened -- knocked over my entire ink pot.  Hours of masking and inking were gone in a single nervous twitch.  Above is attempt number two.  It pairs nicely with the "Wild" mice, originally illustrated in February.

Wild

Let's call the pair...

City Mouse and Country Mouse

Both images are ink, graphite, and pastel on Rising Stonehenge.
