He is now 9 weeks and we have had him for just over 2 weeks. Needless to say, I am not getting as much drawing done as I should be now that my time is spent chasing around after Brinkley trying to stop him chewing the house to bits! You can now purchase this print as an Open Edition from the Shop. 9 September 2006: I am now only 10 days away from the final deadline for my first book.
