a mixed bag

A submarine, a frisbee playing elephant and a stir fry was what I promised you.
So here they are:

The submarine was an attempt to do something completely different, a realistic looking Antarctic wreck in the ice, with only digital tools.

The frisbee playing elephant was naturally enough composed for a member of the family who plays frisbee and is surprisingly light on his feet when in sports-mode.

And the stir fry was inspired by my maternal grandparents, one of whom gets extraordinary delight in surprising the other with the ingredients and equipment required for a stir fry all laid out and waiting to be used.

There hasn't been a whole lot of new work done recently for three reasons:
A road trip holiday where we didn't stop long enough in any place to draw anywhere but in the sketchbook, and not much of that either.
Doing a whole lot of preparatory thinking and initial sketching for #Inktober which begins tomorrow. The plan is to get a black and white drawing done each day of October according to the theme for each day and to share them via Instagram (@cavanaghcreative). It is going to be my first attempt at this drawing challenge. Would you believe that Socket Head decided that he wanted to be part of it too?
I'm in the midst of a commission for a trio of drawings. 
.....So there should be plenty of new stuff to show to you soon.
