A Lunar Chinese New Year Entry - 2018 its the year of dog! Woof Woof~

I was tired of carrying around a bunch of Microns. I want one or two refillable pens so I started with buying a new Lamy AL-Star Fountain Pen. I love it. I got the medium nib and am able to get a nice range of line width from it. This and maybe a fine nib and I'll be all set for a travel kit. This is the first page I drew with it.

Personal challenge to draw 100 pups.

Pasha was a beloved German Shorthaired Pointer rescue dog. He came to us a bedraggled youngster and lived to become a "grand old man." This pencil drawing was done as a tribute after he "crossed the rainbow bridge."

This is a totem I did of all the pets I have/had. I used Copic Multiliner SPs.

Dogs will always make me feel better, especially the big one when you can just snuggle into that furry body!

Rapidograph Pens used to create this image with lots of crosshatching. Drawn from my head.

This happy pup is made with collage materials, pencils, watercolor and water-soluble pastel sticks on a cardboard twelve-pack container.

This week, I've been doing pencil drawings of dogs---usually while listening to the news on my computer. Cardigan Corgi, Bloodhound, and Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound). Various graphite pencils on Canson Sketch pad paper. Random on-line photos as reference.

Times goes by so fast when you're too invested of your phone...but I got my dogs (or cats), napping beside me. It's comfy.

These were drawn by hand without lifting the pen, then colored in Illustrator. Did I get your dog?

Animals always cheer us up and make us get off the couch, because no one but us will pick up a fallen Christmas tree after a two-hour cat race

It's good to laugh.

The one that guards home.

Have you ever woken up from begging "I wanna pee-pee" whimpering closely to your ear? Or from a barking alarm because the birds are singing loudly outside? Yea-ah, dogs are the best alarm clocks... We're sure you'll have a woof-derful week, guys!⁠

Another little practice run - drawings from my head with no sketching beforehand. A bit risky, but results can astonish.

Casey the Puppet. This painting captures the essence of a puppet lots of older Canadians will remember. A strange genderless creature with a dog puppet companion. A puppet with an outspoken personality that I remember as a kid wondering how it got away with saying what it did. The painting has a Canadian stamp to commemorate the puppet's roots.
