As Christmas approaches, I thought it appropriate to upload an illustration of a hot summer’s day.
I did this one for a book called Peigín Leitir Móir published by Futa Fata. Loads of other Cartoon Salooners also contributed to the book. There’s supposed to be text on the illustration but I can’t find the file!
