Two Sketches

An attentive dog waits for her master. Based on my own dog, who was rescued from a puppy mill by a shelter.
Battle Angel. I am not yet adept at humans, but I found a way to hide his face and it turned out better than I expected.

Robin Hood Horse

Pensive Wolf

Skyward Song

Potbellied Pig

Potbellied pigs make good pets. Be ready to move fast if one gets mad at you, though. They'll gladly eat leftovers from your kitchen along with their daily portion of vitamin enriched feed, and they talk to you in little grunts and whuffs.

Hunting Dog

Sharpie permanent ink and Walnut Hollow oil color pencil.

Zorro Horse

Pink Dragon

Pillow Fight

From a series I did depicting horses and other animals doing things that humans do.

Sunset House

Blue Dragon

This one got a bid within an hour of listing. I have done several dragons, but not as representatives of evil. I believe our myths of flying creatures with horns and fire are based on real live dinosaurs. Think, for instance, of the large "flying" lizards that glide through the air on skin flaps resembling wings. Imagine a world before the flood of Noah that was warmer and more conducive to life--the lizards that grow continuously might have reached tremendous size in that age. Now picture yourself standing outdoors--you look up, and zooming over your head is this fantastic animal. You describe it to all your friends, and before long the story grows (as legends do) to include details that are larger than life, but still begun on a grain of truth.
