I thought I would try my hand at another graphic novel-like illustration style. My montage of Alan Rickman portraits - Snape (Harry Potter), Colonel Brandon (Sense & Sensibility), Alexander Dane (Galaxy Quest) 😊 #alanrickman #Watercolour #penandink

Thought I would try to capture some amazing frogs which exist on this planet of ours, before they are no more 💗. I plan on painting a plethora of different frogs, but here are the first three 😊. Watercolour & pen/ink #frogsoftheworld #ilovefrogs #watercolour
