A Bit Rummy...


As my workload begins to ease a trifle, I'll try to get back to the ol' sketchbook and, consequently, the ol' posting semi-regularly on the blog. One thing that has helped me stay sane in the past couple of months is my current obsession with reading the complete works of P.G. Wodehouse, Suuuuuper Genius. The latest was Heavy Weather, and it did not disappoint. So here's a rather quick sketch of Lord Emsworth and his prized pig, Empress of Blandings.

If you need to be further convinced of the greatness of Wodehouse, let me point you to my Favorite Blog Written by a Little Stuffed Bull. Bully's regular posts are also genius, by the by.

Why thank you! And that's a beautiful sketch--you've captured wonderfully their personalities in both their expressions.

Have you ever seen the "Jeeves & Wooster" series the BBC did? They're absolutely hilarious.

Thank you very much indeed, Bully!

Abigail, I think House makes an excellent Bertie, but, although i do love him, I felt Fry was a tad young for Jeeves. But as good as they are, there is no comparison comedy-wise for reading the stories. Every sentence is funny.
