Moon Shot!
I was listening to the news about the Indian moon shot yesterday & got distracted & drew these mousetronauts (with a hat tip to George Méliès' Trip to the Moon from 1902) I REALLY hope the Chandrayaan-3 finds cheese (or even paneer?) while they're up there! (Pen & ink with wash A4 300gsm watercolour paper)

Werewolf? There wolf!
One more lycanthropic image inspired by Friday 13th's full moon (which I completely failed to see due to my impossibly glamorous social life ; ) - Happy Monday!

Full moon tonight! Altogether now... "AAAAWWWWOOOOOOO!"
I know LOTS about werewolves but very little about astronomy but apparently...
'A full moon coinciding on Friday the 13th is not all that uncommon, occurring every three or so years.
But having the combination of a honey moon and Friday the 13th is rare, last occurring on June 13, 1919, according to the popular astronomy site Universe Today. We'll have to wait until June 13, 2098, for the next one.'
(thank you National Geographic)
