Drawing Llamas

Leave a reply

I am now working on my llama skills. I think llamas are so adorable. I love their big, beautiful eyes and long necks.

Interesting Facts about Llamas:

  • Llamas have an excellent sense of smell, hearing, and eyesight.
  • Llamas are expressive animals. If they are unhappy with another llama, they will stick their tongue out or spit on them. 
  • Llamas are similar to camels in that they can survive for weeks without water because they collect moisture from their food.
  • Llamas manure is almost odorless. Wow!
  • Llamas can live to be 20 years old.

The digital version of Oliver, in progress.

Introducing my newest owl. His name is Oliver.

I created him on paper first, and now I’m creating him digitally. That way I am able to offer this piece of art on a variety of products, via Product on Demand websites.

Oliver will be #10 of my Wildlife Series. I’ll be sure to post here, once he is available for purchase.

Have a wonderful week, everyone!

I used to walk past this beautiful tree on my daily walks. It always caught my eye. I am glad that I was able to capture it before a storm came by and damaged it.


My Two Furry Sons

2 Replies

I want to introduce you to my two furry sons, Indy (right) and Junior (left).

Indy and Junior. Two lovable dogs that fill our home with much love and chaos.
Junior and Indy

Indy is the larger and older pup. Indy is a nine-year-old English Labrador. He is the sweetest and loveable dog. He loves the ladies and sleeping. Junior is our four-year-old Labradoodle. Junior is our Energizer Bunny. He is constantly going all day long. He seriously sleeps only at night. If he does take a nap during the day, he always has one eye open.

Our family named these two knuckleheads after the main character from the Indiana Jones movie.

It gets pretty rough for our pups in the wintertime. They do not get as many walks as at other times of the year. This photo of the two of them is right after a walk that was way overdue for them. As you can see, they were wiped out. 😂 We all get a little out of shape during the winter, at least in our household.

I’m very close to finishing my latest piece, Ernie the Naked Egret. I’ve been enjoying creating this sweet bird. I started this on pencil and paper, then finished it digitally with my ArtRage software. This painting is part of my Wildlife Series.
