I love Gibson and all the pictures you post of her. I wish I had more time to draw. I'm going to need more shades of brown, grey, tan, ginger etc. in my pencil collection as I never seem to have quite the right tones when I'm in the mood to draw pets and it's annoying. The perfectionist in me is rarely happy unless the colours are just right.

I'm glad to hear you say that because sometimes I feel like I'm spamming the thread lol

I'd love to see some of your drawings if you feel like posting them?

@Gibsonisafluffybutt @PeelerSheila Maybe I'm just being a crazy cat lady, but I love your photos of Gibson 😻

And given the number of other people posting photos of their fluffy babies on here, you're definitely not spamming anyone 😊

I did this picture of CEO'S dog when she bought him a new jumper, and I did this picture for a woman on Reddit who seemed like she could do with some cheering up. As you can see with CEO's dog pic, his head isn't how I'd have liked it because it's hard when you don't have the right colours to do the shading. Also it has to be good daylight and I have to have the right picture and the time to do it sighs.
