COAT OF SMILES, parody art of iconic symbols. A duck's hat, a mouse's ears and a smiling yellow button. Three iconic things brought together in one artwork.

Breaking down my drawing process with a parody character, McDonald Duck.

It probably seems that I do my preliminary drawings exclusively with a blue pencil, but I also draw on the tradition (thanks to Ken Southworth) to use different colours for different body parts, clothing, layers etc. to keep the sketch more clear to myself.

Happy 75th Birthday, Lucky Luke!

The most classic and influential European comic book character, by far; besides Spirou, Tintin, and Asterix.
