KaRyn's Teeth

Another quick sketch of KaRyn, and this time is just her sticking her finger into her mouth probably because she's teething. This picture makes me spontaneously giggle everytime I have it in my mind, and thanks to my sister having it posted on her Facebook. Had to draw it and share with the group of course. =)
(Moleskine Sketchbook 3.5x5.5")

I can't thank all of you enough for your wishes and comments. My shoulder is getting better...slightly, but I can't expect internal injuries like that to heal any quicker. My wrist only hurts when pressure is applied, at least it's not getting any worse. The cat I think has completely recovered from her surgery, and the coat over her belly has started to grow as well. We were supposed to go back to Louisiana for thanksgiving, but unfortunately my wife and I both weren't feeling well and we spent most of our days off sleeping and getting rested. But I must say though, I have been heavily distracted lately by the new Modern Warfare 3 game which I bought 2 weeks ago. Happy Thanksgiving!

    Sometimes you just have to stop everything and rest!

    Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well, Alex. Sometimes rest is more important than anything. I hope you continue to heal and get stronger.

    Nice to have a model for the adorable sketches. You might consider a doctor to check your shoulder. Just a thought.

    KaRyn is beautiful! You captured her beautifully in this and the last post. You sketch better injured than most people do well! Keep that in mind. :)

    Hope you feel better soon.

    I am with Dan! This is just terrific! She is a beautiful young lady as well. . . but I am sorry that you are a little under the weather. Probably that rest and relaxation (gamesmanship :-) was just what the doctor ordered! Happy, healthy holidays, Alex!!

    Hello Alex,
    I love this sketch...Mmmm...
    Maybe sketch is the wrong word - it is more a full blown, finished drawing.
    Hopefully by now you and your wife are feeling better.

    This little girl is so cute and funny, she eats everything! (my daughter was like that too, we couldn't stay more than ten minutes at the beach, she wouldn't stop eating sand...) I hope your shoulder improves, and as you say, it takes time and patience, and not trying to do too much before you're ready.

    Alex, I hope your shoulder is improving by now and that you've had a chance to get caught up on rest. What an engaging drawing of your darling niece. She'll be a source of inspiration for years to come!

    Wow! Your art sketches are truly inspiring. I love drawing too! It's one of my passions. Anyway, that sketch of KaRyn is so cute! Babies usually put their hands on their mouth when they're teething. =)
