Art meme answers

Rather than do it in the comments and have the formatting go all weird, where posting a pic is appropriate I thought I'd try replying in journal entries.
So here's tha answer to chomaisky's request for #3. Show us your oldest piece of art you have on hand.

The one on the top right was drawn a month after I turned three, so that seems to be my oldest extant masterpiece. I admit, I don't remember my Granddad ever smoking anything, let alone a pipe! I drew the other three interesting portraits when I was a couple of months off four years old. I'm not sure there was an improvement there!!! My Mum didn't get buttons or a weird bobble hat, but she did get high heels.

And de_nugis wanted to know 8. What is your favourite piece that you have done?
Which is actually hard to answer. When it comes to fanart, I tend to be most fond of  the last picture I did (though only if it went as planned, obviously!). But I am quite proud of this drawing of George Harrison I did when I was sixteen. I was a tad obsessed with him and had been trying and trying to draw him from different photos for months. This was actually the 30th portrait I'd tried and the most successful likeness.

Is it a bit sad that this was so long ago??? LOL!
