Original Drawing - My Boy Carlos - Bichon Havanese
Carlos is quite the character, quite comical at times. He doesn't play fetch like normal dogs, he prefers to play fetch with himself tossing toys into the air and catching them himself. The breeder warned us that Havanese dogs have sensitive stomachs and to be careful with the food we feed him, didn't think much of it, but learned how true this is rather quickly. Anything the slightest bit different from his regular chow would most often result in nasty tide marks on his behind, and all the objects (floor, people, walls, couch, you get the picture) he may come in contact with. Unfortunately, Carlos is also the dog who will plot all day to steal some particular food item he should not have. Closed Fridge? No problem, a smart dog uses the tea towel to open the door, or maybe his pointy nose. A large prime rib roast, yummy? Pound of butter, yummy? Quite agile of a dog, I have seen him high jumping to eventually pull a loaf of bread off the counter.
Carlos quirks don't stop there. He only likes love and attention on his own terms, if you pet him too much, he will get up and move out of your reach. All that being said, he is a wonderful dog and we love him.
Here is my final drawing. This took me many hours over several evenings, using an Ipad Pro, Apple Pencil, and the app Procreate.
A few hours in.
Original photo taken by me.
P.S. If anyone has a highly detailed photo of their dog, I would love to draw him/her for you and make a post like this.
It's so awesome! @braveheart29, you're really talented. I'm glad you got back to drawing ☺
Carlos sounds like a really fun character. I can just imagine all his antics 😅
Thank you, I am so glad you like it. I find when I am drawing time just slips away from me, same thing with writing. Before I start something else I should pay Clarabelle some attention.
Clarabelle can wait. She needs a really really reeeeally good plan anyway :P Shouldn't go storming around recklessly :P
Clarabelle is unstoppable, and you can’t put a cow in jail. Besides cows can’t fly?
But.. But...
Security cameras! :O
Don't forget tapes can be doctored, bro. Which is easier to believe, that the corrupt cop has actually gotten proof of a flying cow or that he's got something up his sleeve?
Which makes me really wonder how Clarabelle will be stopped, if ever.
But what about the other cows? Mary and the rest who escaped with her? Will we ever see them again?
Perhaps we should create a Slaughterhouse discord channel ! :D
Yeap! I'm interested in what happens and what the police throws her way next! ;))
Hmm. It is coming to be a rather long story with many plots indeed.. and Slaughterhouse sounds pretty cool. haha :P
I’m thinking those tapes might wind up cut with the movie Chicken Run.
Oh, I'm eager for more Clarabelle! She really grows on you doesn't she? :D
A total of 3 dogs, you say...?
If I'm not mistaken... We need a drawing of one more! ;D
I have drawn my third, the “bitch” Lucy, our Shih Tsu, but wasn’t happy with it. She is our oldest and she is quite temperamental. Fifteen years old. Cataracts. Fat, potato shaped. Barks needlessly at you, and then backs up when you try and pick her up. She is lovely.
Hahahahaha :D
hahaha Thank you! This made my day :D hahaha :D
That's a lovely drawing ... and a lovely dog! :)
Thank you very much! Has Thomas Cat fully healed now? Did you get that lady to pay eventually? Nice to have you stop by!
Oh, thanks so much for asking! Thomas Cat has healed physically, but has reverted to baby cat-hood and is insecure if I take my attention away from him for too long. And unfortunately, the lady not only hasn't paid the vet bills - she is disputing that it was her dog that attacked Thomas. I filed in Small Claims against her at the end of October ... and am still waiting for a "facilitator". Apparently it will likely be February before anything else happens! Grrrr!
