SKETCHES and PHOTOS



ArtMuse Dog Asian Sketch



Welcome to our blog where we view life through the eyes of the artist's soul and explore what creativity can do to enhance the inner spirit.





SUNDAY SKETCHES and POST CARDS from PARADISE


     

Today we are exploring and linked to Sunday Sketches hosted by Sophie and joined with other versatile artists. We are also linked to photographers at Rebecca's Post Cards from Paradise. We are also linked with Pet Photos (click the highlighted links to go there.)

The above sketch (for Sunday Sketches) is done in Asian brush style. It is a sketch of ArtMuse Dog and I have yet decided whether I will add color to it or not.
        

The photo below (done for Post Cards from Paradise) is one of an ever popular photographed place 'Motif Number 1' in Rockport MA where tourists have already begun to flock to this little Paradise in MA. ArtMuse Dog and I were just down there yesterday walking around and enjoying the sun and briefly stopping by to see an artist friend who already was busy with people coming in and out to view his art work.

  6. I first thought it was a cat, too--also being a cat person--LOL! Cute, though.

    What a packed harbor or whatever they call it. (You can tell I have lived land-locked far inland!)

    Beautiful! Hope you are having a great weekend. :)

  19. The sketch of the dog looks so simple (and so endearing) that even I might be able to do one like it!

  20. Your little Asian sketch is almost (but not quite) as cute as your Art Muse Dog. (Lindy says she likes the sketch best because little dogs make her nervous, but that's because she doesn't know any very well. She actually gets along fine with our Jack Russell granddog.)
