A Boy and his Bird

Inked...

...and coloured...

I'm not exactly sure what I was thinking when I drew this boy's nose?

One thing is for sure though, that bird is definitely not the ugly duckling here.

Ha, ha, ha. I like your always funny words. Beautiful combination of shorts and boots.

Looks like his nose is slipping...The expression on duckling's face is so funny.

I believe this is the only blog where someone would leave a comment like "beautiful combination of shorts and boots". Tomás' comment made me laugh almost as much as your drawing!

You can tell they love each other.

I like how they both have a slightly plucked sort of look. I also like the teeny boots on the bird. And the eyebrows.

I *am* a little suspicious of the look they're exchanging, though. They clearly know something I don't.

Tomas - Michael's comment really stole my thunder in terms of my response to you.

Justdoodleit - I'm sure this kid wouldn't mind if his nose slipped right off his face.

Michael - You and me both! I almost fell off my chair when I read Tomas' comment. I find it amusing to imagine "A beautiful combination of shorts and boots" being said at a fancy-pants art auction.

Robert - Probably because nobody else does!

Voz - I personally think that kid is up to no good...I just hope it doesn't involve fried chicken.

Whenever I think I love one of your other doodles, another great one comes along and becomes my new favorite. This is truly incredible. I think it might be the colors and line weight and little details. NOT THAT I STOP LOVING THE OTHER ONES. You know what I'm saying. I really do enjoy this though. Keep it up!!!

Chelsea - Wow, thank you so much. I really appreciate your kind words.

Im liking the bird and the undies! His nose looks like old chewed up gum... delicious!

Abz - Ha! His nose does look like chewed up gum, that's hilarious.
