Wow! and I didn't even know I was pregnant! Here's our new baby , held by our human baby, C. We had the unexpected chance to get this darling golden retriever from a kennel nearby on Saturday. (We had been on their July list, so this was much sooner and so much more fun!) Her name is Abby and she was born on April 4th. If she ever stops wiggling, I'll sketch her from life. You WILL see, however, lots of sleeping puppy poses.


I LOVE dogs!!! Unfortunitley, i am alergic... Which you'll clearly see in my next post!!!!
At any rate, this is wonderful. There is so much great work in this blog it's staggering for me.
I just love it!!!!

What a lovely portrait! They both look so happy. You're so good at this (which I've said before).

I really love this drawing. You really captured a lovely moment and it is so well done. You really have a lot of talent for drawing people. And congratulations on the new puppy. She is so adorable...I will be looking for some more drawings of her!
