That is so true Kate. It is what got me started in art back when I was little and it is very relaxing to return to.
Thank you for the nice comment.

Very delicate and wonderful. I like the pose of the little girl and just the indication of the water tub, to let the viewer know the story. Very appealing!

Aww, this is so beautiful, I love it! I think this pretty much me when I was little, always toting some poor puppy around…

This is adorable!
I know that there is nothing heavier than a puppy that does not want to have a bath

Beautiful work. And there’s a great iron here. Though the image depicts weight, and the topic is heavy, your lines and use of value depicts a delicate lightness. Brilliant!!

You have hidden your talent from us for too long. We now know who to go to for an illustration at work
This is beatifully drawn. You can really feel the heaviness of the doggie. And I like how you have left out the unimportant parts fading into the background.
