Boxers ATC and Drawing

I created this ATC (Artist Trading Card, a miniature work of art usually 2.5″ x 3.5″ but sometimes larger) entitled “Boxer XO” for an English friend, Theresa (YT: Theresa Carr). However, once I was done with the layering, adding the little tag, baker’s twine and felt words and flowers, I realized I wasn’t sure if Theresa’s boxers had prick ears or drop ears. I crossed my fingers as I started to search her Youtube channel for signs of her pups. Uh oh….

So clearly both of her dogs had drop ears. I knew I needed to draw something that would better represent her fur babies. After all, I had started this project wanting to make something especially for Theresa. I wasn’t going to stop short now.

So here is a picture of the drawing I did of two boxers that I hoped looked somewhat like Theresa’s. One looked smaller and older than the other, although I couldn’t be sure since the videos I watched showed them separately (and one of them only from one side and lying down). Anyway, I know I tried my best. 🙂

The following is a Youtube video sharing these projects:

Aww you are so sweet. I love drawing animals (esp. dogs), and I don’t think I could stop if I wanted to! Someone recently told me she didn’t like pets, and asked if I was going to draw any non-pet digis. I thought, “yes, probably, but not for a while.” LOL There are LOTS of digis and stamps of cute girls and boys, but so few with dogs (IMHO). Thank you so much for stopping by, commenting, and being so encouraging. Much luv, Kristina
