Creative Tuesdays - Lighthouse

This week's CT challenge is Lighthouse.  Now I want to apologise in advance if you think I may have lost the plot, all I can say in my defence is that since having a bad bout of the flu, I have doubted my ability to be creative. So to try and overcome this, all I knew was that I wanted to draw a whimsical lighthouse, which I roughtly outlined but then the rest of the picture emerged.

I think this must be the land of the rarely seen egg shaped tribe who sport red noses and hair, who just love enticing playful fish.  It is the job of the bewildered blue bird to ensure that the candles are always lit, although I am not quite sure what happens when his match goes out!

I hope that at least I bring a smile for you.


Subconscioulsy as this is my 50th consecutive entry in Creative Tuesdays, it may be the reason for the candles, who knows, it wasn't intended!

Marker pens on bristol board.
