Welcome!

Welcome to my blog - Make yourself at home and have a look around. Here is my little space to talk about the things I love most - children's book illustration, art, family, friends, pets, wildlife - my own little concoction of life. So pull up a virtual chair I'll give you a virtual topic and we'll have a virtual discussion amongst ourselves.

Need to extend my deadline

Well, it's a good thing I work for myself right now - I had planned on posting a finished colored pencil of the black and white I posted a couple weeks ago. Life and family are just the biggest time-gobblers! Lots of family events and home improvements this month, so the drawing has been put on hold.


This weekend the weather is supposed to be lousy- so as much as the house paint brush needs to be brought out, the colored pencil box WILL be brought out as well!

Well here it is, the promised graphite sketch! I will have a finished color here in two weeks. It's funny how Cosmo seems to look like two different dogs - in profile he looks so much like a basset, whereas in straight on shots, especially when his ears are up, he looks like all beagle. Of course the scars and fractured nose play into it too. Whatever his mix, he's all hound!

Time-stamp on Blogger

I've noticed that the time stamp on all posts on blogger is about two/three hours behind. I've tried to find how to fix this, but it seems to be eluding me......any of you on EST have any suggestions? Thanks! Now back to the drawing......paper
