Hedgie!

Furious posted a hedgehog coloring page on the Picture of the Day and it was so cute I told her I was going to try to draw one myself and color it. She expressed an interest in seeing it, so here it is!  It's based on various clip art I looked up since I didn't have a live model!  :my_smile:

aww he's adorable.  He's natural color...are you feeling ok @Tikobaby;)

If the streaking in the background is what you were talking about when we were discussing different types of paper, I think it actually looks great and adds some texture to the picture.

If you did that on purpose, well good choice ;)

Thank you!  So glad you like Hedgie.  :my_shy:   I thought his quills would look good in a variety of browns so I went ahead and did him in a more realistic way than usual...but he would have looked good blue & yellow!  Glad you don't find the lines in the background color distracting. It's really hard to control that...sometimes it looks good and other times I don't like it at all. I like a solid flat color for backgrounds, vivid, but flat. The paper in the sketch book I'm using is smooth and slick and shows the marker lines more than I like, for the most part, but watercolor paper roughs up the marker tips. Am looking for a happy medium.    :marker:

That is adorable! I like the quills. I hardly use markers, I like the look of bold colors. It makes me think of draw blank picture a day groups. If I get some sleep I may try a hedgehog. I tried an owl not too long ago and it was disastrous- I'm so out of practice!

Thank you!  I'm glad you like Hedgie. Those quills took forever! I like vivid and bold colors as well.  Give drawing a hedgie a try!   :marker:

      My Dad has dementia - and while I'm sure my mom will pressure him to vote (she doesn't see his dementia AS dementia). I just think if you can't recognize your kids - maybe it's time to NOT vote... 
      But he was dyed in the wool Repub - hated the Clintons, I'm a little surprised they hate Biden this much since they're all Catholic, Mom didn't like Trump - but I think she figured in 2016 that he was the lesser of two evils. Not sure what she thinks now but I know she feels strongly that people are coming over the border by the millions (don't you think if millions had crossed the border every day since 2016 - we'd have more PEOPLE in the country?)
      Also - she won't listen to "so tell me what he is going to do to change the economy that he did NOT do his last term..." 

      It's just sad. And there is no arguing with her - she's in her mid-80s and is convinced.

      "To bring home our gifts". Gifts for herself, probably.

      Faith is also on a grifting tour of France. 

      Can anyone explain why skydiving over Normandy at a D-Day commemoration is an appropriate tribute? Sure seems like an elaborate and expensive form of cosplay to me.

      It seems a good chunk of the Phillips family made the trip to France!  
       

      Switching gears.. did you know, allegedly, Liberty’s boyfriend is also a Phillips! And his family is from, wait for it.. Texas! he was adopted at some point, but his biological father is a Phillips.

      I am an American living in Canada - and cannot even express how distressing it is to find SO MANY Canadians that support him. I know I live in a very WHITE part of a very white province (which we didn't realize when we moved here - it didn't factor in) but are you KIDDING ME? People around here seem to really like Trump because he's a good business man (uh - how many failed businesses?) and he "tells it like it is" and supports their rights. (you live in Canada! He's not supporting YOUR rights at all!!)

      I know some Canadians support him. In fact one of my good friends (at the time) I went to college with is now a very far-right winger and spouts out some crazy pro-trump rhetoric on social media. That being said, I do not think he and other Trump supporters are very big in numbers. At least not in my area.

      And I don't get it either. We have a direct look at the US, as one of their closest neighbor. Politics are such a mess south of the border. I don't know why would anyone wish to emulate that here.

      PS: @OldFadedStar I wouldn't be surprised if Trump TRIED to extend is mandate though. That man doesn't believe in democracy and the vote of the people and that is scary as hell.

      Braggie had a shitty international experience. No surprise there. She seems to only post all the problems. But honestly most people have some issues when flying overseas.
