    Blind Pew ( Treasure Island ).

    This is just my own visualisation of what blind Pew may have looked like, in the story he terrified the victim to be by passing them the dreaded black spot,(this was like a death sentence) in the pirate code. Anyway enough said, here's the picture..........Jack.

    I like the simple use of colour here, excellent portrait. I always found blind Pew to be quite frightening in the book, with the tap tap tap of his stick.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    Quite excellent. I really like how you let some of the areas breathe, leaving it to our imaginations to fill in. It creates a very good description for the character. It looks so real it put me in mind a little of Tom Petty cast in that role. Of course he couldn't really be singing "You got lucky babe, when I found you. . ." certainly not in Treasure island where it's rather unlucky. . .

    And the expression does tell something of a story. This is a really good one and definitely shows a how much you've learned and mastered. Bravo Jack!

    Quite good character, ugly and sneaky, and the Black Pew, a sort of pirate's Mano Nera doom ...
    Panta rei (everything flows)!
