5 minute sketch
Fluffy is actually a black cat, but it was the expression I was after. To colour it in would have spoiled it. Or put another way, I was just too chicken.

I forget where this sunflower field was... somewhere in Suffolk.
Sunbathing blackbirds...
I have a wee friend who comes over for breakfast....
Did you know that owls were made this small?
Seagulls near Limerick Castle.
It took 3 years to get the goldfinches to stop off at our garden...
THank you to everyone who sponsored me and helped me raise over £200 for Cancer Research! (sorry but no, I can't run again this year- I'm afraid last year's effort wreaked my back!!! It was great fun but- never again!! LOL!)

Very fluffy!!
How cute is that cat - great sketch Helena.
Thanks for your comments btw. Yes, I think your brother's Christmas card philosophy is a touch on the cautious side! LOL.
Oh, I very much like this sketch. Black cats can also be difficult to photograph. I like how you suggested the body with few strokes.
I can just imagine that drawing black animals is as hard as photographing them! Whenever we have to photograph a black alpaca, we really have to work hard at getting the lighting right, or else the features just melt into the black!
Cute, cute, cute!

"I like how you suggested the body with few strokes"
yeah, that'll be where I ran out of steam.
;^)
Casdok,
She is!
Apart from when she's just woken up from a deep sleep. Then she's a bit lumpy and dishevelled.
:^)
Papoosue,
Thank you!
& Yes, I think he is a tad, er, mean!
:^)
Rachelle,
Yes but at least when you're drawing a cat you know they're not going to launch into a pronk!
:^)
pronk? Ha-ha. What does it mean?
Hi Dilly and BT's mawmaw!
You have oodles of talent - all joking aside, I really am VERY jealous!
Well done!
Chewy,
"pronk" is when the alpacas are jumping about for the fun of it. It's a cross between a bounce and a forward jump.
:^)
HULLO MEANIE!!
Shrinky,
My elder sister is a brilliant artist - art runs in the family and it had almost run out when it got to me. I'll have to put some of her work up, then you'll see!
;^)
Colleen!
THanks!
:^)
I love this so much!! It's a perfect likeness of a fluffy cat.
I am really enjoying your sketches, the ones below, too, even if I don't comment on them all.
I don't think I could do that in 5 minutes! (In fact, I know I couldn't!)
It's very cool.
