Sharing my morning drawing/watercolour of my ginger cat Puss:

The coming Summer is one of my busiest times. Besides increasing my painting time and art quantity, I also have two little cottages that I let for Summer weekly lets, as we live in a high Summer holiday area. Today I am attempting to do what I can with my stumbling bumbling ways, thanks to my toe.

I always make the morning my art time and that is often a sketch or roughing out ideas on pieces I am either working on or planning.

It can often be a sketch of the animals that share my life, from chickens, to dog and cat. It's no wonder I often draw or paint my cat, Puss, she is such a great model.

Monty, my little chi, has often appeared in my works as well. And his daily antics often amuse. Here he is 'christening' the new terrace project I made.

We are also lucky in our variety of shore birds we are lucky to watch here. The blue herons and Snowy egrets always return in Spring and stay for the Season. This is a pretty poor shot with my phone, but one of the pair of blue heron and a snow egret are hanging out on what we call the 'spitting rock' (the water spits through the crack at high tide when we have waves.

I have much better photos of these fellows I'll share another day, but they are on the phone that is not with me here at my little cottages. Yes, I am taking my lunch break (just mowed the lawns with my limping foot) and finding time to post. I do try.

I hope all are having a lovely Friday and getting ready for and even lovelier weekend.
