MUDDY IF


This illustration is from the book "Poodle and Doodle" I couldn't resist using it for the prompt, "Muddy". The big dog, Scruffy, digs holes all over the yard and poor little Angel is always falling in them and getting all muddy.

  5. Such sweetness! Your colors are always so fresh and clean! Having had two dogs that dug up a very small yard, I feel for little Poodle!

  6. I love those expressions, Jack..Scruffy's super sweet, and Angel is a little rascal, right? How cute..I think you captured this silly problem of falling into holes so perfectly. Thank you for stopping by! You always have kind words for me which I appreciate very much. : ) Have a great week ahead - Shirley

  9. Took me awhile to make my visits - thanks for stopping by Jack you are such an inspiration to all of us! It is so much fun visiting your site, your characters are a treat & you execute them so well with such personality. These guys are a riot, I'm guessing angel is pretty annoyed by most everything Scruffy does? I still need to know how to get a copy of your book!

  10. I think this is interesting, your choice of focus and soft focus. Could this be the start of a new direction? The eyes are crisp and clean and alive!
