Puppy in a Blanket

This week I decided to draw my brother-in-law's puppy. This was the day they picked him up all wrapped in a blue blanket - SO cute!  He's a poodle / maltese mix and has has a nice temperament.

I really have been wanting a dog for a long time but it just hasn't been the right time in my life for that.  I will look for a hypo-allergenic breed when the time is right. I've discovered a website called petfinder.com which has a huge listing of pets (not just dogs) for sale, and have heard good things about them.  For now I'll just have to be content with "drawing" puppies :(

I decided to add a poll to my blog this week to get a consensus of how "green" readers have been.  Let me know how green you've been and we'll see how everyone's been doing in a few weeks. Our community has begun a huge new recycling campaign this year where we can leave out recycling AND composting each week.  So far I think it's been a huge decrease in the amount of regular garbage we put out each week.  I hope all of the community is taking advantage of this new program since we need to really reduce our garbage.

Have a great week and stay as "green" as you can :)

Hey Sheri - I love your drawing style! Thanks for your comments about my site. I am feeling a bit more comfortable, but there's so much that doesn't work and I spend hours trying to figure out why. I wish I could have met with you and Linda, but work forbids me from getting away during the day. Maybe we could do it sometime on a weekend?
Keep up with your art - it's wonderful.

Hi Anne, Thanks so much for your nice comments. I'm sorry we missed seeing you last week too. I should be able to do a Saturday morning sometime for coffee, that would be fun to catch up! We could talk DW and other stuff. Let's try to connect soon :)

  And finally... here is my next hand drawing!  Been quite awhile, and 2020 has been quite the year. I can only say I'm glad I haven't given up on my goal of #100DaysOfHands. I liked the composition with the 2 hands holding the rose softly. I used Micron black pens to outline the hands/rose, then used colored pencils to finish it off. I think the lines have an expressive quality, and the soft colors add an extra layer of expressiveness to the drawing. Hope to have another drawing soon!

Here is my hand #63, another attempt at using a thin black drawing pen. I am still struggling with perspective and want to continue trying to get better at it!  I like the feeling though of the dark outlined areas, it helps give the hand more strength and emotion.  I will probably continue black ink again next time!
