Summer is over already and I’ve been very lazy – no paintings yet. Just a holiday drawing or two and more dog studies.

I rediscovered my fountain pens this summer and used them to draw Angus again.

And now to my Nemesis, pastel. I keep trying to master pastels but I have a ways to go. I wasn’t going to post my latest effort because my technique still leaves much to be desired. Admittedly I’m using some old pastels that aren’t the greatest quality but that’s a bit of a lame excuse. I think though, I managed to get this little dog’s personality. I think.
