Pug Loving - for the rough start in my day

in art •  7 years ago  (edited)


I needed some Pug loving after the universe showed clear signs that I’m not meant to finish drawings in time for contests. 😭 Excuse the dramatics. I’m always a tidbit sensitive when I’m not feeling well. I’ve got the body aches and major congestion, so this foxy gal has turned into the worst pout monster. 

I started this sketch after taking a glance at the guys playing Magic. I’m full of envy because they both made a modern deck for gameplay this evening. I wasn’t able to finish my deck in time because my mind was out of it and I found myself drifting.

I decided to draw a pug for two reasons- 1) grumpy animals heal my soul & 2) @donnadavisart has influenced me after I saw her “Blue Frenchie” painting. Give @donnadavisart a follow if you aren’t following already! 

Check out those glossy eyes! Don’t they just melt your heart? Before finishing the drawing I made some minor adjustments to the eyes and made them bigger.

I threw in some quick textures before drawing in the heart. I considered putting clothes on the pup but changed my mind since I already spent an hour sketching this loaf shaped critter. Maybe I’ll do for my next animal drawing.

I’ll keep up this momentum that I’ve got going and continue to fill my night with sketches before I have to started on the next fox tales image. I’m excited to read everyone’s stories and their take on week #15’s story image. If you haven’t heard my fox tales writing contest then you can check out the most recent post here. Be on the look-out for my next announcement post if you love writing and are interested in participating! 


Thanks for dropping by to receive some of this puppy’s love!

What accessories should I draw on my next animal sketch? 🦊

A little cupcake hat would be awesome!
Haha
Oh this pug is definitely one of my favorite of your drawings!💕 got your Steemit chat message, expect something soon!

Hahah! That sounds silly. I could image a pup looking at the hat longingly, wanting to take a bite!

Thank you! I’m excited and I hope it arrives safely. We’re getting snow for the next 3 days.

Cute pug Looks very friendly Thumbs up

I'm never sure how I feel about accessories on animals (even the anthro ones but it mostly comes from overthinking things and wondering how they got the things on in the first place XD )

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well, must be a pretty awful head cold/flu thing if it's hard to put together a Magic deck D: Glad you were still able to draw though, the pug is so cute XD There is something about grumpy looking animals that can draw a smile isn't there.

I found that one at a beach some years ago, the owners had just dumped it in the water for a bath before putting it back up on the beach and it had a full on pout going XD

Hope you feel better soon :)

Thank you. I’m feeling a little better today.

Aww, poor little pug. It looks super cranky! 🤣

Nice picture, and good post.

It's funny when I saw this the first thing I thought of was @donnadavis. It's a cute little pug. Hope you get feeling better, and get a better deck😂

I hope to build a better deck too! 😆 Oh, I saw that you send me STEEM. Was that an accident? If not then I’m going to use that towards my contest and I’ll give you a shoutout. Might I also interest you in a guest judge position or maybe help me throw in a new theme idea?

No mistake, I really like your contest even though I don't enter often, and I was feeling philanthropic the other evening so gave some steem to good causes. You owe me nothing. I don't feel I get enough time to preform as a guest judge, however for a theme idea... Maybe a comedy week? Story has to make you laugh? Or a dirty story theme, something to make the boys and girls cream.

Thanks for the ideas!! I’ll definitely throw those themes in. :) and thanks again for the Steem.

Np, keep up the good works😄

Animals are the closest and most devoted friends of a person. They are more sensitive and loyal to people. They are ready to be from the very beginning, and some of us do not understand this ... and the animals are on the street.

Great artwork and steps.

Ooooh very cuuuute!:)))

Thank you!! It was really fun to draw.

Cute pug. Nice drawing. Keep it up.
Check out my pug too. But he's blind unfortunately. He's an old dude.

Ah, yes. I took a look. He’s very adorable and I like all the wrinkles in his face. :)

HA! He's so adorably grumpy-looking. I could see where drawing something so cute would be sort of therapeutic. I like that you've got the basic folds in there, but it's not too overly detailed, so still very soft.

I know! I’m currently searching for the next grumpy animal to sketch.

I totally see the @donnadavisart influence, what a great tribute!

You've made the eyes so dreamy, they really pull in the viewer. As for animal accessories...what about glasses? Or a toothpick?

Best drawing ever.

@bonni told me that you’d like it.
