Artfully: Day 4

Dog sketches
Drawing dogs – and a cat! for my son

On the fourth day of Christmas, I gave to my true love: five dogs, and a cat.

I’m sketching dogs for my son, who wants me to illustrate a story he’s trying to write, about five dogs who are in fifth grade together, a cat who is their friend against the odds, and another dog who bullies the main character. Last night we went over what each dog should look like, and he told me he wanted to add the cat. So here they are, just pencils for now, the five dogs, and a cat! for my true love who is nine, and growing fast.
