Red is my all time favourite colour. I like to dress in red and I usually pick the red crayon first when I’m drawing with my granddaughter.

In the Cubby?
….had to ask where the cubby was
When our granddaughter saw today’s drawing she said it had to go in the cubby. We know that at preschool she has a cubby to store her personal items. Maybe all Valentine related things need to stay there until the big day.
What Special Day is Coming Up?
….it’s Valentine’s Day, Papa
In honour of Valentine’s Day, you’ll see a heart theme for the next few days. The first is a Valentine’s Day Bear.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Eyes
…thanks to Travelling at Wit’s End for hosting the Weekly Photo Challenge
From the family dog, to Albert Birkle’s The Acrobat Schulz V, a golden retriever, a cow and finally our granddaughter, the ‘eyes’ have it.
“It’s Fishy Friday!”
….that was Winnie’s only comment today
Personally I think it’s Kevin’s best fish so far.
A Dust Bunny?
…does a three year old even know what a dust bunny is?
When Winnie saw today’s drawing she couldn’t wrap her head around a ‘dust bunny’. She immediately declared that it was a cat.
Gong Hei Fat Choy
….two days late but celebrations are taking place all week
It’s the Year of the Pig on the Chinese calendar and celebrations are in full swing all over the world where Chinese communities exist. To honour the Earth Pig I decided to create a collage over a quick sketch of a pig I had done last year. I actually love drawing pigs and this one was one of my practice pigs. There are actually other ‘pig parts’ on this page as well but I chose to cover them with some printed transparency film.
Gong Hei Fat Choy to all my colleagues and friends who celebrate Chinese New Year.
A Scratchy Bowtie
….today’s drawing is another dog with a bowtie
Kevin introduced this dog as Angus. When he asked Winnie if she liked his bowtie she said: “No, it’s too scratchy.” Then she looked outside at the freezing rain (schools were closed in Hamilton because of the weather) and declared, “It’s a good day to go for a bike ride.” What a kid!
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge – Orange and Pink
…thanks to Cee for hosting the The Fun Foto Challenge
Orange and Pink? Together? Now that’s a challenge.
Papa Can You Draw Me a Butterfly?
….a quick change in plans…the prepared drawing can wait for another day
Usually my husband draws one or two drawings ahead of the day he sends them to Winnie. Today she made a request that he couldn’t ignore so he quickly whipped up this lovely butterfly. Her comment: “It’s a beautiful butterfly. Is it a unicorn butterfly?”
