A woman on the bus this morning was drawing on her tablet

 – a picture of a greyhound carrying a small lantern in its mouth and running through falling snow to a light source somewhere out of frame. The dog’s eyes were slightly more cartoony than I liked, but the modelling was very nice; she had started with an outline sketch and worked on it over twenty minutes or so. I think it may have been a gift for a friend because at the end she wrote “Happy Birthday” (I think – I was reading it upside down) at the top.

 

I should probably get back to using my own Sketch app – I used it a couple of years ago to do the illos for Jason’s re-issue of Sensible Stories, so it’s a more powerful tool than you’d expect.
