Last 2010 sketches

I did these at 4pm on the 31st... then went to a NYE party!

Owl with mouse

I wanted to give the viewer a confused feeling. Like your feeling sorry for the mouse but at the same time you can understand the owl because it's his food for the day and otherwise he will die in the end.
So he's looking at you holding the cute mouse by it's tail and saying... he, i'm gonna eat this thing if you like it or not.

Windy voyage

This illustration is the result of me playing with a new kind of oil pastels I just came across. Pretty fun! They look like rouge make-up containers, and have make-up utensils within the same box: little smear sponges. Love those paints! And I kind of love the illustration too, I wonder what story it has behind it?

These are my first steps in children illustration, feedback welcome!
