Just thought it was high time I did some live-drawing for you. It’s been a while! These are scenes that just came to mind as I was drawing, mostly scenes about summer.
I hope you enjoy this.
Enjoy your Tuesday, see you tomorrow!

Love the man and dog in the boat. They seem very sensible, and I don't think the boat will capsize, but OK if it does -- they're both good swimmers, and welcome an excuse to cool off.
Ms. Donnelly - My very first drawing pen was a Hunt's Crow Quill, pretty much like what you're using in this video. My dad, who was (what they called then) a "commercial artist", gave me the pen when I was about 12 years old; he also provided some patient instruction in its use. Inspired by New Yorker cartoons and Mad Magazine, I very much wanted to be a cartoonist, but that changed over time; ultimately, I gravitated towards hand lettering and calligraphy.
