Sketching a Tiger

Charlie has all sorts of ideas about what I need to do for him. He loves to decide on things I can draw so he can paint them. We spent a little time in the studio in hopes I could hang some new paintings for art walk while he played. He demanded a tiger. So I sketched and loved him instead of working. We have had a tough few days. I hope he keeps enjoying coming to the studio with me.

I haven’t had much time for acrylic painting. I had a tiny canvas and a giant one. Chose the tiny 4 inch canvas. We made it to Nashville to see David before he jets across the pond to England. We will be missing him most of September. Sitting around on the holiday working, playing, painting and kissing.
