Better late than never - right? It's my contribution to Illustration Friday's challenge, 'chicken'. The last couple of weeks have been silly busy with life and skating. This is the first chance I've had to get myself across the street to photograph some chickens at our neighbour's house - so my challenge entry is two weeks late. Does this still count for keeping my resolution to draw more? I hope so.
Now to do 'Dusty' (last week's challenge) and 'Surrender' (which was in my inbox this morning).
It's going to be tough to focus on the drawing today as my neighbour sent me home with another one of his fleeces - black this time - and I'm looking forward to knitting his daughter a beret with part of it!
Last weekend I was not drawing on Saturday morning because I was here:
...at Nelson's first Speed Skating Comp. Our club hosted, and the day was fun and friendly. We each skated 5 different races, the distances based on our age categories. Both of our boys skated, too, and DH was an official timer. It took all of the available parents, grandparents and friends of the club to make this happen - would the world still spin on its axis without volunteers to power it?
:)
Now - off I go to rinse out the soaking fleece, then figure out what I'm going to draw for 'Dusty'. Hmm. I have some lovely pictures of sheep here, maybe I want to draw one of them??

You said you were going to draw more in the new year - and even if it's not as often as you had hoped as long as you are drawing more it's a good thing. You can work up to as often as you had hoped. AND as crafty moms we have to admit that our children, their lives, and the lives of the rest of our families often take first priority over our wishes. Don't beat yourself up - be proud that you are making progress. BTW - your illustrations are beautiful!
