Sorry not sorry.

Twinkle, a beautiful ginger tabby.

Border Terrier. Beautiful little lady called Berry.

A close friend recently lost their family pet, Joey. As a tribute gift, I did his portrait. I usually just draw people, so this presented quite the challenge for me. I have never attempted to draw animals/pets. Bic4 Ballpoint Pen, Sanrio Novelty 10 Colour Ballpoint Pen on Archival 8.5" x 11" paper

Not a famous quote per se (as requested for this week's prompt), but my own little phrase I often think about and consider.

Not finished yet! The curliest dog I've ever done!

Dearly little man! That face! Another pet commission!

My final entry for Stage 3 of the doodle addicts challenge! I have loved doing these challenges. They have not only got me drawing things I wouldn't have considered off my own back, but they have brought me out of my comfort zone too. Drawing steam is harder than I thought!!!

Sketching these two dogs in my sketchbook by pen and ink.

Swanky cats was a commission I did recently. The image is A3 and was sooooo much fun to do!

This one is a big'un! A3! 13 hours so far and still a way to go. I do love the curly hairy ones!

A naughty cat by all accounts!

I try to capture macigal mood of Monica Rathkes photo from Yellowstone

Bigger version of dandelions sketch

Part of a series of drawings following characters on a journey through strange and chaotic zones of a gigantic metropolis. I really enjoyed using the Sakura brush pen for this one.

Drawing homes is my new form of meditation. I get lost in building the structure slowly, line after line. I could do this forever...

Just a doodle of moi with morning coffee

5"x7" pen and ink on paper

In response to last week's doodle prompt.

This sketchbook is my therapist. Not this one specifically, but any single one small enough to fit in my pocket. I tell it everything, from quirky thoughts and funny notes to abstract concepts, drawings and positive reminders. Keep it analog folks… a doodle, sketch, writing, poem, or scribble every day helps to keep the brain fit and the thoughts flowing. ✏️
