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 #350 - Rejected Mr Men


Today was Roger Hargreaves' birthday, not familiar with whom he is? he wrote and illustrated all of the Mr Men and Little Miss series of books in the 70s and early 80s.

I grew up on these books and Hawk and Mika have their own collection, they truly are timeless, great little books for kids and fun to boot.

I thought I'd have a bit of fun making some rejected ideas for Mr Men, I could have made about 50 of these but for a lack of paper and time.
