IF"sour"





This weeks Illustration Friday was a good excuse for just playing around with shapes, colours and texture. No very deep interpretation or wordplay I'm afraid, just having fun and working up a few ideas as quickly as possible. The sallow chap with the puckered pus was my first thought and I'm satisfied with him as an interpretation for the topic. I don't know if a theme is establishing itself with these but if you take the 'baby' and the 'worry' from previous IF posts and mix them up a bit you pretty much get this 'sour'...hhmmmm... can a worried baby be sour sometimes...?

    what an AWESOME excuse for playing around with shapes! lovvvve these, matt! clearly the first, the most expressive, but if you look, 2,3,4 are doing the same thing...

    wonderful! oh and yes babies can really get sour, too. especially if you let them sit in things for too long. (yyeeesh!!!)
