The old dear behind me said “didn’t you hear the lady at the door when we came in? You are NOT allowed to take photos”.
I apologised to her in my own way and kept snapping.
The King found his immortality of course. These will be standing when we are all dust.

It was quite strange to crunch through this beatiful scene then hours later to be walking amongst the Qin Shi Huang’s soldiers. Walking though a scene from Hero.

In London today I went to see some of the Emperors soldiers at the British Museum I stubled upon this beautiful statue and was frozen in awe.
I had to draw.
There is something to be said about going to a museum on your own, you have time to stop and find your own pace.

I took a few pictures Quentin Blakes seriously big work (16m high!) to celebrate the arrival of the Eurostar, whilst I was passing through Kings Cross in London this morning. If you click here you can see the other photo’s in this series.
It looks awesome and will bring illustration to a wide range of people as they step off the train St Pancras station.
It forshadows Quentin Blake’s brainchild, the Museum of Illustration which should become a reality in 2011.
There was something magical about standing next to drawings where the lines are thicker than your finger and you can see the detail, spirit and movement on an almost microscopic level.

As part of the Big Draw, founded by Quentin Blake, we take our annual trundle down to the town hall in Newark. Where models, materials and media all await us free of charge and we unleash our whirlwind of chaos and crayons amongst frowns from arty types.
This was a quick sketch of Ella doing her thing.
