How depressing is this summer turning out to be, she says sitting typing this blog post with the rain pouring down outside again! I know our summers are nothing to write home about but can't remember one with SO. MUCH. SODDING. RAIN! Need a holiday somewhere with lots of sun and blue skies I think - Michelle, if you're reading this, I'm getting more tempted by the day and you may see me (and Jo) yet.
Back to the drawing board. Just finished this pencil drawing of two lovely Labs, Winnie and Tiber. Regular readers of my blog will know that I LOVE Labs and they are definitely one of my favourite breeds to draw - just adore everything about them!
Work in progress

Laura, Your labs are very handsome, beautifully drawn! If it makes you feel any better our summer here in New Jersey so far has been pretty poor too. The heat (upper 90s) high humidity and no rain make it pretty miserable to try to do anything outside. I hope the sun shines for you soon!
ReplyDeleteYou are SO VERY lucky to be having rain! I live in Iowa in the middle of the US and we are having the worse drought ever! Our farmers are losing all their fields of corn and beans and I can only think of how the prices of everything this fall will soar for so many places around the world because of what's happening in the US now. Next time you have a rain drop, consider yourself lucky. I am in a quandry as to what we will feed our horses all winter.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE labs too, we lost our elder lab, Miss Shelby this spring but still have our very elderly Winston Churchill (yes his name) and our yellow lab Harley. Enjoy your blog VERY much...

OMG I dont know how you do it!!
ReplyDeleteLabs are so hard, especially black ones!!!
Beautiful work!!!
Thank you Christine. I can't do too hot so have complete sympathy with you there - maybe our rain isn't too bad after all :)
ReplyDeleteCarol, having read what you're going through and Christine in New Jersey I agree, our rain isn't too bad after all and I should stop complaining! It would be nice to have some blue sky and sun now and again though seeing as it is summer :) Hoping you get some rain - if I could send it over I would x
