Wild Vermont Transit

 My 3rd puzzle in partnership with Vermont Puzzle is now available.

Wild Vermont Transit features a quintet of bow tie clad Vermont animals waiting patiently amongst the fall foliage for the bus to arrive. If you are interested in purchasing one for a friend or yourself you can visit my website at barclay-studio.com

New Weekly Bow Tie Guy

Enfield (enˈfēld)

The Enfield is a raptor fox similar to the griffin in concept. They can be found on medieval coat of arms. Some of them have wings some do not. All have the bird like fore arms. In my version I altered the snout to be a beak. It gave it a more bird like feel. 

I have set a new goal to post a weekly bow tie guy. Life has been busy. It has taken me a few weeks to finish this based on the few moments here and there that I have had. I have found again the need to take time to draw. It helps me to focus more effectively on all the other demands in my life and it brings me joy.

I.F. Pattern

Just reposting my latest bow tie design for Illustration Friday's word of the week pattern.

Two New Bow Ties Available

Two more of my bow ties are now available at Beau Ties LTD of Vermont.

For the fox lover you can have the tie “Fantastic.”  And if you love Dinosaurs you can have a tie replete with various dinos called “Dinomite.”

They are also available as neck ties. 

Beau Tie Cover

The catalog for the Beau Ties LTD of Vermont catalog is now out so I thought it was a good time to finally post the illustration. The ties worn are actual ties from the catalog. Again, if your interested in looking at the selection of bow ties or seeing the one I designed you can visit Beau Ties LTD here
