I'm a Model! Saturday Pet Blogger Hop

My mom does draws digital pet portraits with her computer and her mouse. @Cheshirek's mom, Robin, draws with Copic markers and her hand! Trippy, huh?

So check this out! I won a custom portrait from Robin at a PawPawty. Mom was taking forever to decide which photos to send Robin for her to model the portrait after, so Robin suggested she could just look at my blog and get some ideas from there. Mom told her to go for it and surprise us. Boy, did she! First, she drew TWO instead of just the one, and second...

They're WONDERFUL!

This is a 5x7" drawing of me with my catnip tomato. Mom and Dad LOVE it. It's by the front door now, so they look at it every time they leave the house. 

This is a 5x7" drawing of me giving them 'the look.' I have a pretty good 'look,' don't you think!? It's usually pretty effective. She got my eyes just right and they love this one, too. The colors and shading in both of these are perfect. Dad doesn't think this one looks 'just' like me, cause my chin isn't as point as this. My face is actually fuller, but Mom says it's 'stylized' and thinks it totally looks like me, in a little more abstract way.

If you'd like Robin to draw a portrait for you, or look at her other great artwork, go to her Art Fire website - her artist name is 'Chezcheshirek' - and tell her Cokie sent you!
