I think it’s a mouse with a paintbrush. Maybe.

Impossible Sketches
When I was trying to teach myself how to draw, I bought several drawing books. I didn’t do much with most of them for a long time. Now that I’m taking drawing lessons and have learned a little bit, I’m returning to those books and trying out a few things. I drew these two sketches based on instructions from How to Draw Cool Stuff by Catherine V. Holmes.
The Impossible Triangle
I decided to try my watercolor pencils to shade the heart. I don’t really know how to use the watercolor pencils, but I read the instructions and took Nike’s advice: Just Do It. I made the heart into a Valentine’s Day card for hubby.
The Impossible Heart
Greetings from Austin
Every once in a while I find one of the iconic Austin sites, like this mural.
Rhinoceros Sketches
I sketched a rhinoceros based on the image in the book The Weatherly Guide to Drawing Animals by Joe Weatherly.
Next I decided to sketch a closeup, on my own: no video, no book, no instructions. This isn’t as detailed as I wanted it to be. It was hard. Actually, they are all hard for me and take a lot of effort. I look forward to drawing this again, when I have more experience.
Silver Heart
A sketch of a silver heart based on the instructions in the book Simple Techniques for Realistic Drawings by Leonardo Pereznieto.
