When the weather is nice, I like to do artwork on my screened-in porch. I often find myself distracted by all the wildlife around the yard. There are a variety of birds with their young using the bird feeder, hummingbirds on the flowers, gray and red squirrels chattering, as well as about a half dozen chipmunks running here and there. The chipmunks are especially entertaining for my cat as they run right under her nose as she sits safely behind the screen. I did some quick pencil sketches before choosing this pose to draw for today's post.

I like how the plants frame this cute little guy!
ReplyDeleteJane - this is gorgeous! It feels very summery. And makes me feel even worse about accidentally running over this little guy's friend yesterday. )o:
ReplyDeleteIt's ironic, yesterday afternoon I had to stop my car on a back road to let an indecisive chipmunk live another day! I think there is a surplus this year.
ReplyDeleteI am drawn to anything with yellow-green. I love the smooth plants in contrast with his textured fur. Great job Jane.
