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 #253 - Gong hei fat choy


I was watching 'Warlords' on SBS 2 tonight and it got me thinking about Chinese New Year, I think the thing I love about Chinese New Year is the animal assigned to the years and how people associate to each other.

It's probably the only time I can openly tell somebody that I'm a rat and get a positive response and sometimes a "ooh me too".

It's only tonight that I realised that Mika and I are both rats.

Anyway I was going to draw obscure cartoon characters all this week but I couldn't get the rabbit out of my head, damn rabbits, they tend to multiply until you can't ignore them.

Tomorrow I'll draw the Maxx instead.

I think Chinese New year begins on thursday? I love how it's a different date each year.

and everything is red, which is the coolest colour.
