Generally, I prefer my horses well mannered and sedate…
So, unfortunately, these playful horses were just too much for my calm, even-keeled personality…
Thank you, dear 1970’s. You were oh, so very important in my life…
But, time passes and we must needs move on…
I just kept thinking how much I love Hardees while I was painting this…
Have you tried their Chicken Tenders?
OH. MY. GOODNESS.
And what about that new Memphis BBQ Burger.
That, my bleeps…sigh. I have no words.
But I have the ever widening hips to prove just how amazing it is…
But that is totally off the subject. Major.
I’m trying to talk to you about Art.
Art is subjective.
And my subject {hehehe}, however much I complain…
Is loved.
{But don’t tell Morgan I said that. I wouldn’t want him to think I’d like to start taking this monster for walks…}
My challenge to you… Pick up a pencil.
And see what flows out. Just for fun, eh?
What a cool idea for matting!! And I didn’t know you can sketch…this is awesome G!
Thank you, crazy girl!
I TRY to sketch! I took one art class in high school, and I sooo wish I had kept on that trajectory… Never too late, I guess!
Oh Gwenn, you are so talented. Believe me if I pick up a pencil, it would not be pretty on paper. I can barely draw a stick man.
Thank you so much, Debbie!
Start with some scribbles… it’s very freeing!!! hehe
that is amazing and i LOVE how you framed it out!!! i am thinking instead of picking up a pencil i will email you some photos of charlie and jake, k?
THANK YOU, my friend!!!
Send them, yo. I love to sketch critters!
Amazing!!!!!! Truly an artist (said like – arteest)!
Oh, gosh… thanks! I need some mo’ practice, though!
Great drawing, Gwennie, and great idea for the mat.
My abilities in this area would require depositing my sketch into another receptacle in the POTTY room. My dad is an artist and architect and I cannot draw a thing. ;(
So sad.
Thank you, Tina! Oh, how awesome your dad is an artist and an architect! I wanted to go to architecture school, but it never happened… and that’s ok. I’m happy!
I can’t even make stick people good, but I’ll meet ‘ya at Hardee’s for some tenders and you can teach me how to draw.
~Bliss~
Ha! Hardee’s it is!!!
Awesome in so many ways…I love it! I am pretty sure my pencil cannot do what your pencil does. So cool!
Oh, Bonnie! Thank you so much, girl! I wish I had more time to sit and practice…
Very cool! Great job!
Thanks so much, Kelli! How are you doing these days! I hope you are feeling OK…
The frame makes the art extra special – really! OMG! You make me laugh….the Memphis BBQ burger? Does not look good!
Ha! I thought the same thing until I took a bite of Morgan’s… OMGSH! It was divine!!! Hahahaha!!!
Thanks, girl!!!
you are very talented Gwen! I did a pencil drawing in the 70’s of my first love…Donny Osmond…wonder what happened to it? think I like your dog better 🙂
Ha! Oh, Donny!!!
Thanks, girl!
How can you not love that! Sweet puppy! Love it!
Sometimes…. Oh boy!
But, in the end..he’s our Hot Shot!
I love the picture of the dog and especially love the challenge to pick up a pencil. Thanks!
Oh my goodness! I am no longer a virgin for blogs! You swept me off feet with you glorious color! I love color and came from a Mother that was VERY afraid if it. I have no idea how best to use color in my little home in a way to please my eye and make me happy while avoiding chasing off my friends! I am a lover a greens (not olive greens -blech).
