Illustrated in Deleter #3 Black Drawing Ink with crow quill pen and brush on Strathmore 9x12 Smooth Bristol Board.
This illustration is based on one of my favorite characters from the Doctor Who novels: Iris Wildethyme created by uber writer Paul Magrs. Iris is a fellow Timelord of the Doctor whose TARDIS is shaped like a Double-Decker London Bus. Unlike the Doctor's TARDIS, Iris's is in fact smaller on the inside than it is on the outside because it was dying when she found it.
I have her appearing with the Eighth Doctor in this picture because she appeared in quite a few of the Eighth Doctor Adventures published by BBC Books. I based Iris's costume directly on the illustration famous Doctor Who costume designer June Hudson did for one of the covers for an anthology of Iris Wildthyme short stories.
My interpretation of Iris is based on Björk who I could imagine playing the part of Iris if the character appeared in the current television series.
If Iris is to be believed (and she probably shouldn't be believed) she's "had" the Doctor. In a brief exchange with Bernice Summerfield in "Professor Bernice Summerfield and the Plague Herds of Excelis", Bernice asks Iris if she knows the Doctor (although his name is never spoken, it is heavily implied).

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

"Know 'im?" replies Iris. "I've 'ad 'im!"
