Dog Days of Summer…WOOF!…Notes from Wilbur…

Summer is here. What has she been doing?

She’s been making dummies for a book about me. Lots of them.  This dummy is tiny.

It’s just 5 and 1/2 inches. What’s the big deal? Why does it take so long to make a picture book?

Somedays… she walks me to the library. She gets books. I get ear rubs and dog treats.

Happy Summer…WOOF!….from Wilbur

Penguin Sketches…

Brrrrr….it’s cold outside. Penguins are coming out of my pen!

Penguin notes…

I was recently in Santa Fe. I wish I could have brought an original Georgia O’Keeffe back to Vermont.  Although I did bring home this lovely book of her watercolors from 1916-1918.

It’s keeping me warm on this cold winter morning.  This one is called “House with Tree” (red). It was an inspiration for my penguins. I wonder what Georgia would think of that.

I’m having fun making a mess in my studio with my watercolors….tcp
