Wild Child's sketch prompt this week was 'The Wizard of Oz'. My choice of character was Toto, played by a Cairn Terrier in the 1939 movie.

Morna and Alistair
Morna and Alistair are from a story I've been working at over the last few months. As they both get older in it I've been trying to find characters that work at different ages. These quick doodles I did after work are the first ones I feel capture their characters.

Desert

Dogs
Last week I drew some gesture drawings of dogs from Line of Action and here are a few of the results! I enjoyed trying to capture the attitude of each dog. Most of these were drawn in 30 seconds. The ones with more detail were done in two minutes.
Practice, practice, practice
Last year I came across this tweet, which challenged me to start thinking differently about how I draw through the week. For artists big and small, in school, at work or chilling, remember about your veggies! pic.twitter.com/hRPdVuX1fo — trish (@enankaheta) March 2,...
