Not much or a breakfast type but this has been it lately. Almost always kombucha. And frequently a honey crisp apple til they run out. And if I have them a croissant from Costco. Love Costco croissants. Thank goodness the fattening deliciousness aka croissants are gone.

Pentel brush pen Lamy EF for fine lettering Stillman and Birn Alpha and Ted Nuttalls transparent colors plus Andrews Turquoise.

It took me a couple of hours to draw all these crows. Lots of fun. I was trying to keep them fairly loose with line carrying the impact. Stillman and Birn alpha Lamy EF and that filled the sketchbook up. Yeah.

And most people’s favorite.

also known as really bad dog. Caught honey with her head buried into the new 16 lb bag of cat food. Now half empty. No wonder my dog is getting fatter and fatter. Otherwise she’s an rgd. Really great dog. More often found as a dog rug on the floor sleeping or hopeing for hand outs. Not stealing food or eating like a pig.

Painted with ultramarine blue burnt umber aureolin and cad red light.

Well unless you use non permanent cartridges for your pen. Oops. They ran a little when I started painting. Double oops.

Just little bits of birds out of my brain. Been reading and watching Felix Scheinberger on YouTube.

Was not to wild about the angle that I had on the model today so I moved at first break. This was done in about 40 min. Ink because it’s Inktober! Her hip was the biggest thing that I could see. And I cut off her left foot. Story Ilania!

So I moved the easel and started over. Maybe it’s better?! Not sure. But there was no view from the head end at all. I used white gouache to add highlights.
