Description My first serious drawing since the stroke. I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out. Just frustrated that it takes me longer to complete anything

This is Splash (CH Majestic Whole Town's Talking) owned by Jennifer and Emily Fish. Many thanks to Jennifer for letting me use her terrific seaside shot of Splash for a reference. Splash is a lovely blue & white Border Collie.

Graphite on 9x12 Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper.

Thanks Katerina!!! I was winging it on the shells and the starfish, but thought it was an appropriate theme for this dog (besides the fact that the photo was taken at a beach). He got the name Splash because he almost drowned in a swimming pool as a puppy

Thanks! I'm getting there - just have to try doing some water color work and see how that goes. I hope you won't stay away from DA for long - you will be missed!!!
