Ah, if only! I can sketch an actual loon though! This lovely creature caught my eye on TV and after a bit of Googling, I think it's a Red-Throated Loon. It has really striking red eyes too. There will definitely be a few more TV sketches to come, I'd forgotten how much I enjoy it and it fills pages quickly.
I'm starting to enjoy filling these two sketchbooks now. The guilt of having too many half finished sketchbooks is ebbing away page by page. Above, on the right, a little dog drawn from an image in a free calendar that was put in the postbox, and left, a drawing of my messy bed. Drawing before you even get out of bed is a great way to start the day!

Brava, Felicity. I've been waiting for some birds. :)
That little dog is fabulous and sketching in bed. Please continue sketching like a loon.
Thanks Robyn - more birds to come!
Felicity, thank you for sharing your lovely sketches. Yes like you I also have so many journals started. So okay, more decipline. Love your work.
The loon sketch is spot on, you did really well. I love Loons and their calling they do on the lakes. Two years ago we went on a canoe trip to Temagami in Ontario (we try to go there at least once a year), however on this one trip we ended up seeing over 80 loons on one lake, no lie and it was one of a life time sight (took pictures). Love your sketches, the puppy is too cute : )

Love the loon, and that you're sketching like one - all so beautifully done Felicity. Drawing in bed is a great way to start the day!
Thanks Joan!
Thanks Mari! Lucky you, they have such lovely markings, don't they? I must find out what they sound like now!
Thanks Cathy!
That little doggy is so cute! Great loon sketch too!
