I have your 1982 Sketching Book (with Tom Kinkade) and there are a lot of animal sketches there.
By the way, a reprint of this wonderful sketching book would be great.
I know a lot of people starting in the beautiful world of the "new" art of sketching and they've never know about this treasure book. The best one about sketching I have ( and I have a lot of them)

Great Drawing.
Thanks, Master.

Looks like he is really longing for the snack :)
It looks great.
Great job, James. You not only capture a great likeness but the sensitivity of the light and the nuance of character. Makes it a very stand-out piece.
