Decades ago, on our honeymoon, hubby and I camped, hiked and enjoyed nature in Jasper, Banff and Waterton National Parks in Alberta, Canada. I confess, not knowing any better, we fed some of the animals while we were there. In Waterton, a Big-horned Rocky Mountain Sheep ate tidbits from my hand and a young moose…

Fox Ink sketch
I always loved foxes. I long thought I would love a pet fox. There is something that seems magical about foxes. The way they bound and pounce with their tail swaying wildly. Noses diving into snow. Ears alert. Almost like little puppy wolves, but even better than that somehow. They are just super cute. Not…
Rabbit (Ink Sketch)
Aren’t rabbits just the cutest? My kids once had a rabbit. She was a black and white Netherland Dwarf, but didn’t turn out quite so dwarf as I expected, as it turned out. She was very tiny when we first got her but she grew to be quite huge! It was my oldest son who…
Two Happy Pigs (Ink Sketch)
Once upon a time and long ago, far away, a friend of mine was completely enthralled by pigs. So, with her encompassing love for pigs in mind, I decided to do this sketch (I seem to recall that she adored her copy). I understand that pigs are intelligent and can make fine pets for some…
Lioness and Cub (Ink Sketch)
Since I was very young I was fascinated with the way cat and dog mothers would pick up and carry their kittens and puppies with their mouths. The teeth and fangs of carnivores that were designed to kill could also in effect cradle the delicate furry skin of the infant young to transport them to…
Tiger Ink Sketch
Cats are fascinating mammals. I think I could say that my hubby’s favorite animal is the cat. Cats of any kind. Tigers, lions, and all other cats (and including the domestic cat) are amazing hunters. Their abilities are truly stunning. I think the tiger a striking cat. The leopard is lovely too. The Cheetah seems…
Caribou Ink Sketch
When I first finished this ink sketch a little over a couple of decades ago, I left the room where my drafting table was to juggle one or two of my four children for a few minutes and when I came back to the drawing board shortly thereafter, I discovered that one of the little…
Zebra Foal Ink Sketch
Horses are and have always been my favorite animal. Zebras fit right in as a favorite for me because of their close relationship to horses. I find zebras fascinating in many ways, but mostly their similarity to horses. The black and white stripes of the zebra are especially attracting to me since I’ve always appreciated…
Monkey Ink Sketch
This monkey amuses me. Many monkeys amuse me. Some seem cute, and some, not quite so cute. I think the squirrel monkey is one of the cutest. The proboscis monkey is possibly one of the monkeys that I could not call cute at all. When a youngster, I once briefly knew and loved a monkey….
Lioness Watercolor Painting
It’s not a very good photo of a framed painting behind glass, but this is one of my larger watercolors from some years ago. (Maybe I can get a better and bigger shot to share later.) I used to do a good deal of portraiture, wildlife and scenic paintings in watercolor, one of my top…
