Illustration Friday: Swell


This week's word is "Swell".  All I could picture was some kid from the 40's saying "Ah, gee!  That's swell!"

I bought some small art trading cards to draw on at the convention.  I've never tried them before and I also have some new grey pens so I tried out both with this drawing.  I also got a sweet silver pen to sign any prints people buy so I tried that out too.  They're swell!  Sorry, couldn't help it.

  1. Your interpretation fits so well with what I think about when I think of someone saying 'gee swell', that wholesome goodness and open enthusiasm that you see in the old movies :-), its great!

  4. OK, so this is great. You manage to capture it just right through expression, gesture, and the great black and white color palatte. Nice job
