Dog portraits – the perfect picture

Drawing chit chatBy GarryDecember 18, 2017

It’s difficult to get a good photograph of your pet, they move around and don’t naturally pose. Well here’s a device that will help you get that perfect shot. A good, in-focus photograph is the key to getting a great drawing, the more detail that can be seen, the more detail can be drawn.

Drawing chit chatBy GarryFebruary 13, 2017

Pencils are my tools of the trade, it’s what I draw with, simple as that. So like any other good worker I need to look after my tools and that’s where my Derwent pencil wrap comes in. It keeps all of my pencils neatly stored and safe along with an assortment of rubbers and pencil sharpeners.…

Cat drawings the purrfect Christmas present

Drawing chit chatBy GarryJanuary 5, 2017

Another Springer Spaniel drawing

Dog portraits, In ProgressBy GarryMarch 24, 2016
