This is my dog, Elsa. Elsa from Frozen, yes, but we didn't name her! In reality she is more like Anna - feisty, determined and a bit nuts.At first she was asleep, but then she realised I was drawing her. This is her eye upside-down – she was lying like she is in the...
Here are some 30-second animal sketches! I'm drawing a lot more very short poses and it's fun. Plus it helps with the longer poses.Here are some slightly longer 2-minute poses.
