Neffie and PG
It's been a good week this week. I think spring has finally arrived. The sun has been shining, i've been out in the garden planting and its beginning to wake up.
I have been busy trying to keep up with everything and doing fairly well with that.
I gained some more followers on Facebook and I finished and sent off a Pet Portrait to Australia. Here it is.

A Very Busy Week
It hasn't been a bad week weather wise, a little colder than last week, but overall not bad.
I managed to get out in the garden where I did as much weeding as was necessary ( I only have a small garden), and put in some more plants. I want to add more structure to the border and so some small shrubs were prescribed.
The sun did shine a fair amount, although the wind made it rather chilly. The plants don't seem to mind though and they are growing. Spring is beginning I think, even if it is late.
Most days too, I went for walks up over the hills with my lovely, soppy German Shepherd dog, Honey.
Good exercise, as most of our walk is up hill through the fields in the beautiful countryside around our home.
She enjoyed herself immensely, especially when she spotted the rabbits having lunch in the hedgerow. She gave chase and spent some time waiting for them to emerge from their burrows, to join her for some play. Needless to say, she was disappointed.
Then half way across the field two deer were standing in full view. She couldn't believe her luck, and then again disappointment, when they legged it at top speed. Much too fast for her!
She didn't give up hope though, she kept looking behind as we walked on, to see if they were following us. Never mind.
I started a graphite pencil drawing this week too, a Lioness resting. I also have a commission, two lovely cats, a digital hand painted pet portrait that I have almost finished.
Both will be posted in the next few days. The painting will come first as the drawing is going to take quite a few days to finish.
The kitty drawing below is a graphite pencil drawing that I did a few weeks back. I hope you like it.

A Beautiful Day Here in my part of the UK
Well, it has been a beautiful day here in my part of the UK (Southwest). The sun was out and there was a pleasant warm breeze, I think spring may be on its way!
I took the opportunity to do some gardening, for the second time this week.
We moved to this house just over a year ago and the garden was a wilderness. I spent a lot of time last year clearing and planting it and it looked OK, but didn't do too well because we had such a wet summer.
Now, after a long freezing cold winter, the plants are beginning to poke their heads up through the soil, and many of the shrubs are amass with new shoots. This year, they should all look good, even if the weather lets us down because they have been in for almost a year.
I haven't done any drawing or painting for a couple of days but will be over the weekend. I am going to draw a Lioness resting on a log on A3 paper. It will take some time to draw, because there is a lot of detail in it. As soon as it's done I will post it here.
This lovely little fawn, I drew a few weeks ago. Just because I loved his sweet face.

When I saw the photo of this cute little dog, I thought I have to draw him. His big wide eyes and dishevelled hair were beckoning to me.
I think he is a cross between a Beagle and a Poodle. Don't you think he is just Adorable? I do, that is why I have used him to head my page here and on my website

Boxer Dog Graphite Pencil Drawing
I am still in the process of revamping my blog, and today I managed to tackle my Home page. I think it looks much better now, more streamline and easy on the eye.
I have also started another drawing, this time of a beautiful long haired cat, a Maine Coone. It should be finished in the next day or so.
This is another drawing completed recently.
I will be posting it on my Graphite drawings pages too.
