Sketching William sketches of a scruffy hound - and sometimes I add a little orange terror called Hamish

The sketches....... often a quick pen outline ~ sometimes a photo and work from that.

I draw what he gets up to, no matter how the finished drawing looks. I hope you enjoy seeing them......ann

I'M NOW DOING 'LOOKING BACK' POSTS HERE, KEEPING WILLIAM'S MEMORY ALIVE ❤️

Chase the mouse

... William was such a good boy.  
I told him 'No, leave it' and he stayed 5 inches behind it,
til the mouse got away in the long grass.

"You make me very proud sometimes lad".

    1. Can't believe you remember Morris mouse! Since I drew those I found some one else has done and published a Morris mouse (different drawings obviously and story) but I don't think I would be allowed to do my Morris now....even though mine was done way back and at the time I found no reference to the published version I came across. Perhaps I should call him a different name!
