Illustration Friday - ENVY

I thought I'd try to do something very quickly this time as the my last effort was very time consuming. This quotation from Gore Vidal has always amused me, so a quick scribble of his high cheekbones and we're done.

This is a place where I regularly post personal artwork, good, bad or indifferent.
The characters that crop up regularly in this blog are husband – Robin, eldest teenager and only daughter – Flo, next teenager and eldest son – Tom, teenager second son – Hugo, five year old third son – Xavier, and red Staffordshire Bull Terrier – Rufus.
I'll try to reply wherever you comment but if I don't it's only because I'm overwhelmed with running a family and earning a living.
My two eldest have started a business venture selling artwork (mainly my paintings) to raise money for university. Please visit their site, Oakley Gallery to see what they are selling now.
If you want to buy prints of anything you see here or have any requests please send an email to flo at oakleygallery dot com

Wow ! Look at those envious green eyes. I've always wanted to have goreous green eyes. Great sketch and idea !
Thank you for your kind comments. Just had a look at your stuff - I particularly like your corner series so will be looking out for that!
This is a great sketch, and the quote is very funny!
I love Vidal's waspishness. Something I couldn't possibly be, if there was any chance of victims reading this, sadly for the reader.
