Pet Sketches - Gus

Gus's picture had to go in the mail--his human ordered his picture on Thursday night of Calgary Expo, but I was so tired that the picture was not going to turn out well. Oooof! I have it sitting on my desk and it just wasn't happening at 8pm!

I'm thankful to everyone who lets me mail their picture after the show--it's well worth it!

Pet Sketches - Tynk-R-Belle

This is a special commission of an OTRB chihuahua--the customer provided me with many photos and the one that caught my attention was one of Tynk in a ballerina outfit.

I constructed a doll and added the dress. It's a simple paper art picture, but so effective and heartwarming. Our pets spark imagination in so many ways!

Pet Sketches - Andy

Andy's portrait challenged me to really pay close attention to fur patterns, and doing so made a world of difference in my drawings this year!

Thank you to everyone who ordered a drawing. You've really helped me grow my skills this year!

Pet Sketches Progress Post

All initial customer emails have been sent--and I'll follow up when I'm close to drawing each customer's pet.

Check for updates on Facebook and your spam folder--don't worry, I persistently follow up :-)

Also, be aware of a potential Canada Post strike starting around May 22--if that's the case, I'll be in touch about pick-up/drop-off options.
