So much pain
So much genius
So much.
Just last Wednesday I visited the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. Spellbound. I didn't think that much could make me love the man and his work even more. I was wrong. If you're ever in Amsterdam you must, must, must take the time and trouble to visit.

One Sketch 225) Guido Fawkes (5th November)
Poor old Guido
You'll be quartered and hang
At least, every bonfire night
Goes with a bang
I literally had about 10 minutes today due to being exceptionally busy with work, and being as it was bonfire night this was the most obvious and quickest thing I could come up with. It's from the contemporary engraving of the plotters.

One Sketch 224) The Doctor
Ring in the new
She is the Doctor
And bloody good too
I sketched this after watching the latest episode of Doctor Who, starring the fabulous Jodie Whitaker. When it was announced that the next actor to play the Doctor would be a woman, I withheld judgement, I'm so glad that I didn't say anything stupid at the time, because she is just brilliant.
