No pastelling possible today but discovered an pastel art app, so had a bit of fun drawing an imaginary corgi. It’s actually as much effort to smudge in as it is in real life.
This beautiful dog was saved from immanent death in a kill shelter. She had no name. PennyPaws rescue asked for donations to help her and name her. We named her Mollie. What a wonderful privilege to name such a special dog. She is now looking for love here. https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/2025/08/19/mollie/ It is wonderful to see my drawing on her page. https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/2025/05/27/sponsor-a-pennypaws-dog-dog-of-the-day/
Still sad Three years on With you gone Yet stills we feel you all around Your smile still lingers here And still we see you everywhere Your bark still lingers on the breeze And honestly, I am still afraid to sneeze Incase you bark at me again No dog to poke a wet nose at my paralysed arm So many special ways you charmed us Your ball lays silent in the grass No football played here anymore Your bedding and your toys all gone Your leaving us is not quite so harsh Though painful memories still Can jab and stab at us. Mostly we feel your love And happiness Tenderly surrounding our Now quiet lives And are just so glad we knew you Even for a shorter while than hoped for Our Precious little dog.
Poor Nellie has a sad story. She is still patiently waiting for a home here. My husband, moved by her story asked me to draw her. It is a huge challenge to get the markings right enoug, with my coordination so poor and my eye so blurry. Each picture takes many hours and days with my very limited ability. I hope the picture foes her justice. I hope she finds someone to love her. You can read her story and see more photos and video here. https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/?s=Nellie
