Christmas 1993: Cherubs
pen and gold ink, 5 x 3 inches, 1993.
This card was actually a black photocopied design on coloured paper, with gold paint added to each card, and that was the first and last time I hand-coloured all the Christmas cards…
I made Tony a slightly different set of cards to use - his weren't hand coloured, but he did have a wicked female cherub, too, as an alternative design… Sadly I think this one has been lost in the mists of time and I cannot now find a single image of it.

This drawing has the honor of being the oldest image on the site, unless I ever upload some stuff from when I was very young, and it dates to about 6 years before I started painting - back then I just did the once-a-year christmas card, and this is the first one.
