I hope that you UK dwellers did not suffer too much in that dreadful heatwave that we had yesterday ? I have just been away for a short trip to spend some time with me mum and yesterday I returned travelling by train, and I cannot tell you how glad that I was to get in, drop everything grab a long cool shandy and a shower...don't get me wrong I love the heat, but not like that, it was way too much for me.
The picture above is the one that I blogged about in my last post and here it is finally finished. This does not do it just justice as I had to photograph it and I am useless at that when it comes to art, with the size being 16 x 20 inches, just too big to put on the scanner.I know the dog personally a labdoodle, hence all that nutty curly fur, and a bit of ladies man when it comes to girlie dogs. He is adorable, full of fun and mischief, but also quite nobel looking which I hope was caught here in the picture with his two human grankids.
My husbands just emailed me a photo of his cars thermometer- 40C!!!! Buts it's grey outside! No sun, just heat. Not nice at all- especially with a baby on board and a crazy toddler. Lots of water being drunk here!
ReplyDeleteDogs are amazing at posing aren't they? I've known some right characters yet get them to pose and they look positively refined.
I completely understand about the troubles of photoing something to large. Wondering the same issues now as I have to snap a 11x14 for a show.
ReplyDeleteOh and I hate the heat too.,
Beautiful work Vic
ReplyDeleteBeautiful drawing. Have you put up a market place of your pencil (and otherwise) art work? Glad to know a lot of artists from the UK :)
ReplyDeleteI am trying to put up a site for promoting my pencil work and lessons too.
I love the drawing. The picture is very sweet and tender. A wonderful and beautiful artwork.
