Mickey Visits Aotearoa



This was drawn for a fellow I was randomly selected in Postcrossing.com, he lives in Portugal, so I had to send him something handdrawn, even though I don't know if he will appreciate it.

He collects Mickey postcards, so here is my rendition of everyone's favourite cartoon mouse in the New Zealand forest. Clad in his swanndri, his stubbies (ugh) and tramping boots, he has met up with a kakariki and a kiwi. That's a cabbage tree and a silver fern with koru in the background.

Because Mickey is harder to draw than one might think, I used a "how to draw Mickey" lesson for this illustration. If you want to draw Mickey yourself, here is the link: http://www.malanenewman.com/mickey_mouse_fullbody.html
