Having taken a break from sketching, the other day I felt it was time to pick up my sketchbook, pens and pencils again.
Who / What to draw though?
and
What medium to use?
It wasn’t too difficult a decision as I love drawing/sketching with Pens. You know how some people have a thing about Handbags or Shoes….well, I have a thing about Fountain Pens! Yes, it is possible to draw with fountain pens. My favourite is a good quality Lamy with metal casing. It feels so nice to use.
Subject matter? On this occasion it had to be young Dottie.
Here are 2 sketches so far, done over the course of a week from her antics.
I’ve tagged on a third drawing not dog related, but as I’m adding ink sketches, thought I would include it in this blogpost. It’s of hubby walking daughter’s horse back to the field.

Eileen.....Thanks so much, it's certainly nice to get back to some normality around here 😀
I've missed you and your sketches, Ann! You have such a way of capturing your furry friends that always brings a smile to my face.
Welcome back!
