Christmas Gift Illustration

This is an illustration that I did for my Dad this past Christmas. My Dad was a Fire Fighter for about thirty years up in Thompson Manitoba, so it seemed an appropriate subject. I did it in conté and chalk pastel on an orange paper. It was kinda rushed as I hadn't had an idea for it until the 25th and had to deliver it on the 27th. I am out of practice when it comes to illustration but was pleased with it overall.
