Birthdays and travel pics

Firstly - Happy Birthday borgmama1of5, hope you have a lovely day! Here's some Demon!Dean for you.

A pencil sketch finished off on PS. The original is in my sketchbook back in Shrewsbury so it won't get finished until I visit my Mum again.

Totally unrelated...

While I was up in Shrewsbury a week or so ago, we had a day trip to Ludlow. Mum has to have her morning coffee fix, so we went in The Feathers, which is a gorgeous 15-16th building. It was built as a house, but has been an inn since the 1600s. I took a few snaps with my phone to show y'all.

This one is famous for it's wood carvings. In Ipswich we have the Ancient House which has one of the earliest depictions of a tobacco plant in Europe in its pargetting.
Africa is represented by a naked man holding a spear, Asia by a horse and a mosque-like building, Europe by a woman with a horse and castle, and America by a man with a dog at his feet.
Here's the whole front (if you click through to Flickr the chap who took this put loads of info about the building with the photo)

And here's America - the twig thing on the right is supposed to be tobacco.
