  This little dog is called Scufita Rosie. She has an amazing story about how she was found for sale on the roadside, her puppies already sold and  rescued from who knows what fate. She is a sweet delicate dog and it is a privilege to draw her and share her story. Now she has the happiest life ahead of her. So moving.

 I came across some old pastel pads recently and took some photos of my drawings. Thry must be 15 years old I think, still there is something pleasing in this quickly sketched tulip picture. I like is looseness and the fact I have not tried to make it more perfect, simply an impression, quite loose. As I have got older and even more limited, I feel the need to control and perfect more.

I am very ill at the moment.  A very very sad story about dogs killed overnight. A one finger drawing about dogs needing homes, a name tag, loving absolutely! Now delighted to have it featured on PennyPaws website Home page! https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/

  I love this drawing I did of a white Lilly. It must be eighteen years old or there abouts. I love the fact it goes off the side of the page so you don’t see the whole of it. It is bigger than can be captured. It always touches my heart in an inexplicable way. Recently I found it again after years of not knowing where it was. I share it with a poem about loss that perfectly captures how I feel about our beloved corgis as well as so many people we have known who have lost their lives down the years.This is the truth, love never dies. OUR TEARS CANNOT BE ASSUAGED Your pain, is my pain, is our pain Your suffering, is my suffering, is our suffering Your grief, is my grief, is our grief Your loss is forever my loss, is forever our loss. Our tears will flow Till the oceans are full and still they will weep. This is the amount of honour due to you To recognise all that you were, all that you have been, all that you will ever be to us. Our tears cannot be assuaged Your loveliness still echoes

I find it more difficult to draw a fluffy dog. Maggie though has such a  sweet gentle nature that I wanted to try. . Happy to have a go. This is the result. Hoping she finds her permanent home soon.
