New Month = New Photo in our Caption Contest at Linden Line Designs, LLC. This month's photo is "Ryker". Isn't he extremely handsome! What a great photo. Wanna enter the contest?? It's easy ... All you have to do to enter our monthly contest is submit a cute or silly caption to accompany Ryker's photo - and you will have a chance to win a FREE collar for your family pet.
I would like to thank Sandy - Ryker's mom for submitting this beautiful photo of Ryker for us to use for this Month's Caption Contest.
There are so many wonderful blogs out there in blogland, and Ryker Rules is one of my favorites. Sandy takes such beautiful photos of Ryker. You will have to stop by and see for yourself. She lives in Alaska, and just wait until you see the scenery - extremely stunning.
Here is another drawing that I finished. Currently, I am taking an online Sketchbook Delight class with Alisa Burke. I am truly having a lot of fun. Normally you can find me at the sewing machine, however, I am branching out...and now I am learning how to draw.
My husband bought me a book recently entitled : 50 Artists You Should Know, written by Thomas Koster, with contributions by Lars Roper. In this book, they included this painting by Picasso and I immediately fell in love with it... so ... I thought "what the heck"...let me see if I can draw this using colored pencils. Oh my gosh, I couldn't believe how it turned out. I was totally surprised. Here is it...what do you think? Not bad, for a total, and I mean total beginner:
Oh, and I am using a book that we purchased from a used book store as my sketchbook. (my drawing Picasso's painting isn't a part of the online class - I just drew it for fun.)
Anyways, I better get back to sewing and completing the orders that I have.
Don't forget about "Follow Friday 40 and Over" hosted by Java:
Wishing everyone a lovely weekend.

Your sketch is awesome! Great job! I am sure your teacher will be very impressed. I love drawing, and your posts on your class are urging me to pull out my sketchbooks.
Ryker sure is a beautiful pup. Such gorgeous blue eyes and markings. I will have to check out his blog, and think of a caption!

Love the caption for Lucy's flying picture! That's so funny! And Ryker is gorgeous!
Thank you for your comments, but for some reason, even though you think you are, you're not following me yet. I'm adding myself to your followers, so I can keep up with your art and those adorable pugs. Later this month I will be ordering a harness for Dustin. Very nice blog.
Hi Joan,
Thanks for stopping by my blog and for the sweet comment. It's nice to hear that you used to live by here :) I am originally form Toronto, Ontario but I now go to school down here and I just love it!!! I do visit home every 2-3 weeks which is why I allowed the giveaway to be open to those that live in Toronto as well. Thanks for following my blog, I love reading through yours and I can't wait to see what you will make next!
That was a very nice idea...Caption contest is cool especially the picture is great and can give us lot of ideas...^_^
