Another perfect portrait by Hercule! 🤣

Re-sharing this old portrait as the ‘customer’ saw me in the pub yesterday and came over to say hello to me.

She was also really nice to me, which is surprising given that I’d drawn her dog!

I don’t get to meet many of you in ‘real life’ very often, but when I do it’s always so lovely to have a proper conversation/interaction that isn’t just words on screen.

This portrait was requested by the wonderfully lovely Ursula Firth.

I don’t know what he’s called, but I’ve named him Thin Diesel.

Diesel likes celestial herring, doing blow-offs that sound like a duck on a rusty trampoline, and saying ‘sorry, he doesn’t normally do that’ whenever his owner runs over to people and yells at them in the park.

I’ve obviously drawn this one in my ultra-realistic style, so usual reminder that my portrait is the image on the right.

Review from the customer:

‘I’m aghast and furious’

GreyFest 2026: Summer of Love! is this coming Sunday! This Greyt event runs on 100% volunteer-power, and we still need several people to sign up to help make the fun happen in short shifts; from set up, to tear down and everything in between. Our greatest need right now is help in the kitchen, and help in Speed Alley!

We have a shaded hound corral with a dog sitter, so you can freely lend a hand in making this our BEST picnic yet!

See link in comments and in bio for info on opportunities to help out! Thank you in advance to everyone who signs up to help! 🥰

We can't wait to see everyone on Sunday! 🤩
