I swear he sleep walks


I swear he sleep walks since Monday I have been sleeping in the living room looking after my dog. And every night he get up and paces back and forth from the living room into the kitchen. Back & forth, back & forth, back &..... Grrrrr! I look at him ask what he is up to? And nothing I finally put my hand on his back as he passes me for the one trillion time and then he settles back down on his bed and falls asleep with his ducky,

If he paced before the seizure I didn't know about it. He likes to sleep away from every one else so I have no reference point All I know is I'm grumpy!

Anyway, the illustration is a pen & ink with water color I did back in 2007 or 08? called "Sleeping Under the Moon" I have used it as my avatar ever since and never get tired of looking at it.

Hamlet

(click on the drawing to enlarge)
I have decides to post sketches, drawings, and photos of Hamlet that I have created or taken over the years. They will not be in any kind of order just whatever I dig up first.Since his seizure on Monday, he has been getting stronger and is starting to stand on his own again. Also Hamlet is taking longer walks with the aid of a harness for his back legs not bad for a dog who is 14 years old, over all I am happy on the progress.
This is a water color sketch it is part of an idea I had for a picture book called "Tricks for Treats" Hamlet is the one with the flower costume in the lower left hand side of the page pulling his wagon. The wagon is a on going joke in his life part because he is half Husky and could pull you down the street. The closes thing he ever really got to pull was a red plastic car that my nephew was sitting in when they were both very young

Memorial Day


On Memorial Day while most was out and about I was at the NYC Animal Hospital with my eldest dog. He is 14 years of age and has several health issues all under control until yesterday when he had a Grand Mal Seizure that freaked the poop out of me he is doing better today still not 100% back but better I really thought I was leaving the hospital yesterday with out him ever coming home. But now only time will tell if he will re coop to were he was before the occurrence. They did a great job taken care of him I thought they were very caring & professional I feel very lucky they are located in Queens.
