what the hell is this about?

Several friends have embarked on their own P365 journey but as I have no camera nor an eye for photography I've decided to try to complete "a doodle a day" for an entire year. Most will be in my little Derwent A5 sketch book but some could end up being from the corner of some document or scribbled on a newspaper. As the year progresses I will try my hand at inking them as well?

If some of them don't make sense, don't worry, they're probably not meant to. You may notice there will be certain themes along the way and if you know me you'll know why.

I hope you enjoy.

Okay, here goes, every day til I'm 39.

Day #43 - Happy Birthday Dad


Probably my most difficult pic to date but worth it, Dad turned 65 today and so I decided to draw something for him.

Mum used to tell me how when dad was young (i think around 13) he used to have a Davy Crockett hat and he's always loved both Davy Crockett and Daniel Boon ever since.

Ironically the same actor played both characters in both TV series and both wore the famous raccoon hat.

Happy Birthday Dad, I love ya mate!

  1. I have the Daniel Boone tv theme running through my head now. My dad loved him too... and Grizzly Adams!
