Pet Portraits and Art by Cherri Blazek

Working on some original animal cartoons...

Figured I needed to practice drawing more...I don’t do it near as often as I should. This was sketched on my ipad with the Apple Pencil... there is so much potential with that tool! It could use more blending, but I’m trying to just do a quick sketch from a photo. Of course Cody was mad I drew him. Go figure

My latest portrait... Blue the Blue Heeler 8x10 Charcoal For Julie and Steve Gelfarb

This isn't a pet portrait, but a side art job I'd like to share...This is a quilt that I hand painted with my mom for my cousin's baby...first I drew the cartoon kids, which represented my cousin and her husband's childhood...then we transferred the drawings to fabric and then handpainted each one with fabric paint. After they were dry they were sewn together to complete the quilt. The photos in the stream include the original drawn cartoon kids, the painted squares and finally, the finished quilt.

Just adding some photos of past artwork
