Illustration Friday - Contagious


Here's my submission for this week's Illustration Friday theme - Contagious. A quick pen and coloured pencil sketch of some unhappy pooches - looks like a dalmation's spots are contagious now!

I was too late for last week's 'Parade', but thought I'd post it here, anyway. My version is a red carpet parade collage.



And last, but definitely not least, I was honoured to receive this award beautifully painted by the lovely Laurel of Studio Lolo. Thank you so much and apologies for the delay in posting this Laurel! If anyone's blog is uplifting it is definitely Laurel's - be sure to visit - it's a delight to read and there is always wonderful art and photography to enjoy.

  13. Me, me! I want spots! Spots are the new black. Very cute contagion. And Parade is so chic. Lovely ladies you have there. My daughter went to a birthday party with a movie theme, and the mom had laid out a red carpet runway all the way to the front door. It made the girls feel so special. Heeehee!

    Congratulations on that fabulous award!
