Lost

The young girl that was an inspiration for this drawing lost something this week. My idea was to make her look nostalgic, but if she doesn't that's OK, I like this portrait anyway.

Sketchbook, pen.

Illustration Friday - Cracked

My heart is cracked, but my soul is intact.

The latest portrait from my little sketchbook.

Illustration Friday - Contagious

I don't know about you, but I find people's smiles most contagious.

Ohhh, I can't believe this!


I was so happy that Illustration Friday had a topic that inspired me to make an entry. I took out my watercolor pencils and started working using my old favorite watercolor pencil drawing/painting technique. I finished and was all so happy I'd be participating once again only to find out that what I saw on the site this morning was in fact last week's topic and was changed to a new one. Disappointing, but it's all my fault, I know. Serves me right for not paying attention to the date and not visiting the site more often. Anyway, I had a great time making this dog painting. It's always fun to make paintings of cute dogs.

Waiting For A Sunny Day

When you can't get yourself to sit down and draw anything else - take a pen and doodle. That's what I keep telling myself and today was one of those rare days when I actually listened.
