'String of Pearls' - 2004. My half Spanish pirate character 'Red Jack' Talbot and his African Grey Parrot 'Noah' admire their plundered treasure; strings of white, black and cream pearls to be squandered later! Technical pencil & watercolour on white paper - A4. Pirates! © Leona Preston 2003.

I've gotten official permission to post some of my more recent work art, but this one's still about a year old. It's one of my favorite things I've done for the company - it's one of the character classes, the spelljack. Please don't redistribute this picture. It don' belong to me no more. Thanks.

The first and best real media piece I've done in a while. Started out with just a gradated wash, then threw in a lotus, decided a betta would look kind of spiffy. ALl very stream of conciousness kind of thing. I love my aquarelle/arches 140 lb hot press brilliant white acid free watercolor paper!
