So here's my Illustration Friday submission for the week. The theme was 'ripple' and the illustrations made can be purchased from the artists as an effort to raise money for the oil spill cleanup. The image is my take on the Japanese creation story, wherein Izanagi and Izanami formed the islands of Japan when water dripped off of their spear into the ocean. So perhaps it's a bit of an abstract connection to the oil spill, but even in a seemingly dead ocean of oil life still exists.

So here's something a bit new, I haven't done something for Illo Friday for a while but this week I was going through my art as I was putting it into our new flat work drawers and noticed some old illos I did a few years ago. What do you think?

Something to note, the A symbol is the sign they use to mark the applachian trail for those of you far from the eastern US!
