Drawings of my Dad


Tomorrow is my Dad’s birthday. To commemorate, I asked a few people to draw pictures of my Dad and the things that remind me of him. Then I stuck them all on a blog. As I was putting them all online today, I was overwhelmed and honoured by how much time went in to them. I hope my Dad likes them!

(I’m still taking submissions, so if anyone out there wants to contribute, please get in touch: vic @ lost.net.au)

I’d contribute but you know how appalling my drawing is. It would just end up offending him.

This is such a wonderful, fabulous idea — what a great looking guy. :) Hope he loves seeing all of the drawings.

[...] And while you’re commissioning, get a portrait of them from a talented artist or from a group of loved, less then professionals. [...]
