Jingle Bell Rock

For the past two months, I've been super busy playing 'Elves' at Hamleys in Central London during Christmas - so it's no surprise that it's inspired me to draw this as a fitting Christmas deviation

Everyone there is equally mad but very kind, and I've certainly learnt a lot during my time there. This elf in question is a mixture of a few colleagues who I've come to know, each recognisable by familiar quirks - one wears stripy stockings, one has heterochromia (different coloured eyes), one wears 'false' freckles, a couple have piercings (though I exaggerated here as a nod to the "Five Golden Rings" ) and a few are redheads.

Now all we need is a real-life guitar made to this design

But whatever happens to me at Hamleys, I intend to make the most of it, however tiring it may well be! Though I'll try to keep up with the drawings when possible


Happy Christmas to you-all, and see you there for 2015!
