Illustration Friday: Pet Peeves






This pup's pet peeve is not being able to dance with his owners. So he howls instead.

This brings tears to my eyes. We had a black lab who used to do that. She'd howl when we danced. I don't know if she thought she was accompanying us, or if she was scared we were fighting or something!

I miss that girl. She was such a sweetheart. Thank you for this wonderful memory. (The cat is adorable, btw).

Looks and sounds like a beagle to me. I knew a Barney Beagle that bellowed for what seemed like hours. Beautiful mood in your rendering. Really like it.

So, so beautiful and moving, Paige. As always, great lines and beautiful, clean, bright colors. Your characters have so much gentleness, and of course, I do love that beagle! :-)
