Hi all!
Got this one finished! The top part of the big circle was the most time consuming. I used a really thin pen, a Micron 005 for details which makes this small A5 sized drawing look a bit “bigger” after scanning. There’s a photo at the bottom with the pen beside the drawing to give a sense of scale.
Hope you enjoy this one. Any kind of feedback is welcome. 🙂

The Da Vinci clan journeyed to Killarney and the shores of Georgian Bay to holiday. On the day pictured above the water was to cold for swimming, but just right for a leisurely walk.
Now the best we can do is twitter.
For most of human history, people used to write letters to talk to someone who was not immediately present. They’d frown, murmur the words slowly appearing on a sheet of paper in front of them, gnaw at their quill, agonise over synonyms, and smile at the postscript. Today, there’s no need to describe the beautiful sunset you’re witnessing: it can be snapped and twittered before the sun sets down.
There’s no need to think while talking to the other “party”. Eavesdropping on phone conversations is a sure way to join a local chapter of the Reverse Darwinism Club (the fraternity of people who believe other people are getting dumber with each passing day).

The pace is hectic around the Millbank Trading Co. and after a hard day sometimes the boss just crashes on the floor. Don’t let that deter you from grabbing those good deals. Just step over his inert form, taking care not to step on his tail.
Robert Vowles’ famed Will-o-the-Wisp is being displayed at the Millbank Trading Company store in Lakefield, Ontario. This dynamic sculpture is embellished by a large canvas print of the elf queen in action. If you visit the store make sure you read the Will-o-the-Wisp poem.
If expeditions to the wilderness in search of woodland elves has been fruitless The Da Vinci Brothers suggest you go The Millbank Trading Company in Lakefield, Ontario. Mark O’Reilly the proprietor is an old school shopkeeper who dedicates himself to putting the customer first. To this outstanding quality you can add class and flair. His store in Lakfield, Ontario features high end outdoor fashion and accessories for the discriminating shopper and….. get ready for this, the fantastical early art of Robert Vowles. We’re talking deep woods elves of the gnarly variety and for the more refined taste, a lady elf riding a frog. If you’re a techno enthusiast of the twenty-first century and elves aren’t to your taste then check out Robert’s cutting edge Robot.
It’s definitely worth taking a trip to Lakefield just to see Mark’s store on the main street. But you can spend a day in the town enjoying its fine selection of shops and restaurants. If you get shopped out grab an ice cream cone and enjoy a stroll along the scenic river.
According to the Da Vinci Brothers the Inca King’s head will someday reunite with his body and he will return from the underworld. On that day the Spanish had better watch out! Click through for more on the Incas.

Any modern bracelet would probably contain sneaky electronics.
“Honey, let’s talk about a metastable allotrope of carbon”
“What?! Now?! I couldn’t care less about it!”
“Good-good… So a diamond wedding ring goes off the list…”
The wedding ring is an important symbol of love (both are endless, at least at the start), bonding, and financial status of the new family.
Wedding rings also signal to others that their owners are wed. There are people who believe it is the rings’ most needed function.
Challenge your man if he can take off his ring with one hand while his hand is in his own pocket, and if he’s doing it fast and easy, start talking to your divorce lawyers.
In the 19th century, as I discovered at a temporary exhibition hosted by the Hermitage (in St.Petersburg), women were wearing wedding bracelets as well. These bracelets would have a portrait of their beloved husband. If you read my post on the
