Dogs are so much fun to draw, and surprisingly good models. I was ecstatic when they brought this guy over for me to draw

This past weekend I was at the Fine Arts Festival in beautiful downtown Golden, CO. Here are Caliste & Shena, two wonderful huskies, probably the best behaved of anybody I drew all weekend - canine or human!
It's always fun to draw animals!

In the past week or two, along with dozens of caricatures of people from Russia to Finland to Mexico to Korea - and even exotic places like Denver - I have been doing quite a few live caricatures of peoples' dogs.

Just like what you'd think of when you see a schnauzer, only he's taller than a doberman! He also had a spotted tongue. That's a first for me as an artist. I mean, I've drawn children with ice cream on their chins, but...
