Toothy Grin



Is anyone else scramblig to finish their Sketchbook Project by January 15th??
I'm scribbling my way through the best I can and I'm not even halfway done!
So now I'm copying pet food ads! haha!
I do love this happy guy though.


I'm also tracing some of my old drawings (suggested by our dear friend Marianne.) I was copying them in color and glueing them in. Tracing is much better because it's still "original."


Of course, I'm changing them up a bit. I love the aura I gave this cat, hence the name!
And the Queen is still the Queen.

Slowly but surely I hope to fulfill this obligation. But I did read today that they want them to travel even if only partially done.

WHEW!!!!

And so far I'm keeping my promise and showing up "for myself."
Feels kinda nice ;)

    It will be wonderful when you are finished with it Lolo. You can do it. It seems that everyone I have read about that is attempting this challenge is struggling. You aren't alone.

    I love the toothy grin! LOL! Kinda feel that way today, grinning but chasing my tail!
    I'm barely keeping up with my stuff I'm doing as *real life* has seeped into the mix.....
    Ah well, we show up for US. Nuff said!

    These are great. I bet a lot won't finish them or will only do half the book. But you are giving it a try so that's a positive.

    That dog illo at the top is awesome. I love the expression on his face. He looks just like my sister's dog who is such a character!

    Yes, it's a great grin,,,he's definitely been up to no good, but he looks great!

    Exactly why I talked myself out of doing that project,,,,I'd be still on at the very last second.I know how I am,,,
    I still have one more heart to finish for a commission of eight.
    You're doing a super job on it, and I'll bet you finish!

    I guess I have totally failed to do this challenge. I bought the notebook and all, but did nto get more than three or four pages done. I think I got intimidated seeing another artists so superior art in her sketchbook on her blog. I know, I know we are all unique, however I let that happen t his time.
    YOurs all looks fun and so well done.

    Now that is a tooth grin. I have no idea where my notebook is. We won't finish undecorating the house until sometime next week. I'm so ready to get my stuff back in order.

    What a face! Love those "teethies"! Hmmm..... who could the model have been?

    All these sketches are so "Lololo-ish"..... and whether you complete your book - or no - it is bound to delight and amaze all who see it!

    Love,
