Bosco

My sister-in-law's terrified of dogs. I am not sure why and I did not ask. But when Bosco came into their lives, Bosco changed her life.
Because of Bosco she found the kindness, the loyalty, and the child that dwells every dogs that people love about. Because of Bosco she started to appreciate and collect Snoopy merchandises. They almost lost Bosco once in the park, but she was the one who insisted that they must get Bosco back after searching for hours. Bosco did come back and Bosco is definitely staying with the family as well.
(Moleskine Sketchbook 3.5x5.5")

This is my brother's special request, to sketch Bosco for her birthday on the 30th this month. I knew that I wouldn't have time to draw this entire week so I did it on Sunday in that tiny 2-3 window of time that I had left. Thank you all so much for your comments and visiting.

Happy Birthday my dear Sister-in-law.

    I had a Bosco! He was a brown poodle and I loved him so much. I'm glad your sister-in-law got to see the good side of a dog. Nice work on the drawings!

    He's completely adorable! Your sister in law is lucky, for the dog, and for the gift! Your composition is great, and your drawings are (as usual!) awesome. I particularly love the bigger one, where Bosco is sleeping, it's perfect, even the fine dog hair is visible!
