Day 48: A Puppy!

I knew there would have to be a puppy. Everyone knows you can't have a good farm scene without a puppy. I tried to make sure this puppy had a few, very important, features:

1. He had his head up in the air. Every puppy I've known had a habit of throwing his head in the air when he was playing a game.

2. He had to have a long tail. Dogs are cute no matter what, but I love the long tails.

3. He had to have his tongue sticking out. What dog doesn't have his tongue sticking out?

Without further ado:


So, how did I do? I think I struggled with this one the most, because I really wanted this to look good.

I'd love to have a dog myself. Unfortunately, I don't have a big yard or the time to take care of one. Hopefully in the future I'll get one. My husband thinks he prefers cats, but that's just silly.

I've also updated my personal information. I've also signed up on Technorati. Apparently my blog is 27846th. Yay me!

Edit: Oh, I forgot! My husband got his bonus recently so I will soon be getting a new computer! I want to run out right away and buy one. I'll be a good girl and do my research. Weeeeeee doggies!

Day 47: A Family Member and Some Farm Scenes

Ever had a day where you couldn't find anything you need? I have a few days during the month that aren't like that. Today I couldn't find any markers, but I found the pastels I was looking for when I was doing the Humpty Dumpty images (don't worry, no more Dumpty for now... that egg has cracked). I used watercolours instead to colour my Farm images. The final images may be different (No, I didn't get a kid to draw them. These drawings are all me, baby!).


And then there's the family member, Mr. Ducky! There were several people who laughed hysterically when they heard what my married name was going to be. I don't see what's so funny. Duck is a perfectly dignified and classy last name. Quack! ...excuse that.
As you can see I finally have a nice new template. I'm sticking with this layout until I design one of my own. No takebacks! I like the fact that it's raw and a bit messy. Reminds me maybe too much of myself.

If this is your first time visiting my blog, welcome to you. You may not want to read some of my old posts, because I've just now gotten warmed up (after only 40 odd days). If you have been here before, then keep checking back because there will be lots more stuff soon! Please stick with me, because things are just going to get better from here.

A Sleeping Cat

So I did get my kitty done today. I've been meaning to draw a kitty for a while now, so I'm glad I got him all done.

Day 46: Issues With Formatting

So I tried to upload a new template for my blog, but it didn't take. I tried to revert to the old settings, but that isn't working either. I'll have to look into things later so I can at least put things back the way they were.

A Little Bit of Love

Here is a Valentine for any of you who need a little bit of love. No words, just art.

Day 45: A Cow

Today's drawing is a cow. He was supposed to be a kitten, but there you go. Sometimes things don't end up like they're planned.


Maybe more stuff later tonight. We'll see how my plans end up.

Day 44.5: The Pig and a Flower

So I did a pig and a flower. I'm going to be using all these images in the illustrations that I will be working on in the near future. I've decided to do three drawings with a farm theme. I've got solid ideas for the first two, but I haven't decided what I'm doing for the third, so I'll be posting that tomorrow once I get it figured out.




I think this style is really well for me right now, because my computer can't handle a lot of information right now. I don't like the idea of skimping on things or making a file too small just to work on it on my computer. My husband should be getting a bonus next month, hopefully it's lots and lots so I can get a new computer.
