Freehand art, meet Halbert Hare!

Hello to all.  I have just finished my first hand drawn and hand coloured image. 
This is Halbert Hare and he is now on a card!
 I used Spectrum Noir ColourBlend pencils and I am so pleased with how this hare has turned out.
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you would have seen him as a work in progress.


I have not attempted freehand drawing before and was delighted as he began to take shape.  It was so much fun creating his face, features and fur!  I used Spectrum Noir ColourBlend pencils for the drawing and a touch of white gel pen for highlights.
