Tucker

Sketch a day - Day 291/365

It's feeling like a bit of a slog today. I am trying to get some short monologue pieces over the line. Taking short monologues down by 1/3 of their length. It's a tough job. But I guess a good exercise. Every single word has to earn it's keep. I am tired. Not much drawing time today. I did snatch a moment to sketch Tucker. He kept moving his head back and forth. From leaning on the top of the sofa looking at me (hoping for treats*) and then out towards the window (hoping Jane was coming home). Would he keep still? No! So I ended up doing two simultaneous sketches. The one of him in profile is actually like him. Like a broken clock, every so often a sketch I do actually is right. The other one, that looks somewhere between a wild hog and a deer? That doesn't look like Tucker. That's the news. Oh. And of course. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

*Reader, he (eventually) got some. I am not a monster.
