Illustration Friday - Brave

Bunny was feeling brave when she approached Leo at the costume party!
My take on this week's Illustration Friday.  I thought it would be fun to play with the idea of the brave lion and put a twist on it!
I've gone for a very pared down palette too which I'm going to try and do a bit more often...

  2. I like the idea of a "pared-down palette" — I was thinking something similar myself (less is more)

  6. Oh, I wish I was as brave as Bunny to wear that swanky costume! Love the linework. I've linked to you on my blog as my favorites for the week, let me know if you'd rather I didn't!

  9. Leo…the mane man?

    Great idea, fantastic line work and the limited pallete works a treat.
    I came across a piece of yours in an old magazine at the Docs just this week. So much wonderful work.

    Thanks for the comment.
