A day at the animal office with horse typing and manager hippo.    © MARTIN DAVEY 2011 This was painted in photoshop in 2011 to A4 size. As can be seen in my work I like to place animals in mundane human situations. An office is a good location and I'm sure I will visit this theme again. Its fun to have such unlikley animals in these roles, such as the Hippopotamus with dress and bright red lipstick and the horse typing at the six keyed keyboard, with her hay sandwich to hand. A similar horse can be seen at a supermarket checkout here. In the background some office gossip is in progress. An image like this is drawn on the computer, then painted in a traditional, layered way similar to conventional painting media.
