The Lion



This is something I did circa 1980s during a short-lived fling with using chinagraph pencils as a cartooning implement. I had discovered them in completing a commission to illustrate an audio-visual presentation using acetate with drawings on the surface of the material and colours on the reverse (ala animated films of the time).

This sketch emerged from a practice session and has been retained because it reminds me what can be achieved in seconds when almost everything goes right in transferring an idea from brain to paper.
