A tribute to Uncle Des Darvell.

I was at my cousin, Kerrie's place, yesterday morning, when I noticed a framed paint flecked photo of her dad, my uncle. I decided to draw a copy in my sketchbook. I used gel pen and colored pencils.

  Here are the scans, one in  black and white and one in color.  I have been doing quite a few colored pencil illustrations in my current sketchbook and will upload more over the next few days.

   Des would have loved this but unfortunately he is no longer here to see it. (As an adult he told me to call him just Des, rather than Uncle Des). I am thinking of doing a series on my uncles and aunties because they were so good to me and very interesting.
