This was the first artwork that I'd drawn in years. It was inspired by Valentine's Day and the many friends I had made through the movie CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY. Although I like both adaptations from the book, Burton's movie has had a deep impact on me for its breath-taking visual effect (I've watched it dozens of times and I see something new each sitting), Depp's multi-faceted performance, and the inner pain that it touched within my own soul.

A few comments on my own art:

1. Yes, it is freehand (only way I draw).
2. No, I don't use drugs (not even caffeine this time).
3. It's a pencil doodle that took on a life of its own.
4. A surreal study of how I imagine the candymaker's mind to work; how the world might appear when viewed through his eyes.

Everyone always asks me if I use drugs when I draw my Willy Wonka pics.... XD But really, Willy Wonka isn't Willy Wonka unless it's trippy looking! Creativity is the best drug. :P

I'm not commenting honestly, well not properly, if I say everything I'll be here all day ;) But my God those eyes are so beautiful. WOW. :wow:

The glimpse of the Golden Ticket is a fabulous touch. The detail on the chain, all the clockwork imagery and all done freehand too. Stunning. I love the look on Charlie's face, it's a great mixture of excitement and adoration and Willy seems so vulnerable, excited and apprehensive. God there are so many things this picture suggests to me. There is something of a labour of love in this piece which really shines through, something strangely gentle in your pencil work :D

It's wonderful.

I'm sorry it took me a bit to respond to this. I've been rather lost in a daze lately. People like you are a blessing. Truly. Thank you.

Oh no, don't worry it's okay, I just hope you're alright :hug:

I've put this picture on my wall because it makes me smile so much. It's not often you come across something that conveys such an emotional mixture.

You're always welcome and thank you, you're too kind.

(Oh, next time you wander off in a daze I'm giving you a piece of string so you don't get lost :D)
