my reference pic (yay! a kitty!)

thirsty for inspiration because the person (Axil62 you know who you are) that I have learned the most from watching and who inspires me the most has been too busy to draw much lately, so I looked at this pitcher of water and I drew it. (pun intended) :)

If you look really really hard you can see me sitting in a lounge chair on the deck :)

I used a reference pic for this, of course I don't have these in my backyard. Umm, as a matter of fact, I jacked this magazine from the lobby of a place in Fort Worth the other day because I saw this picture and I couldn't bear to leave him. :) The photograph is so cute that it made me smile everytime I glanced at it while drawing this, and if I captured even half of his cuteness, you should smile, too.

Here is the reference. I didn't really want to post it because the photograph is so much prettier than mine. However, I wanted you all to see that the neck is supposed to be curved around. Hope you like, I had fun drawing it :)

Its somthing i saw in a dream...it reminds me of illness....

With a twitch of his tail
and a purposeful paw,
down by the river
crept Scarface Claw..

Does anyone go to subeta.org? This is one of the minions, my favorite one. X3 Not done yet..

"Red Halla's royal scouts roved forth
Explored the Pain's edge east and north,
Sought scarlet dragons' Smoking Hills
Beyond bare Saltlands' bitter rills.
Four scouts fared forth, fast shoulder-friends,
Climed clouded cliffs where world ends,
And, ragged ranks reduced to three,
Were wared of wyvern trechery
By Melintelinas, lite queen
Of dragons languid, long, and lean.
One scout sped south, strove to return,
Lest Halla, herd, and homeland burn.
His fellows fallen, stranded here,
Have heard no word four hundred year.
Their daughters' sons bide, yearning yet
For news of Halla's offspring's get
That wryms lie vanquished, Hallows freed
By valiant victors' distant deed.
Come outlander with tidings and
His name shall be the Firebrand.
More swart than midnight swept of stars,
The moon athwart his brow bescars.
One heel whicked white by wyvern stings,
His flame the final firefall brings.
We dragons' denmates must remain
Till Firebrand fetch us home again..."

A line of unicorns appeared around the bend...

I drew this from a photo that was digitaly altered. I just wanted to give credit to Thomas Bauer who originaly "drew" this...don't know who he is but thought I better say something.
