Wonderful work. I don't know if there was an influence, however, the drawings of babies reminds me of the drawings of JH Dowd from the '30s ( http://www.collectorsprints.com/artist/dowd/sketches.asp ) BTW, you mentioned having trouble with show through when scanning from your sketchbooks. Just put a piece of black paper behind the sketch and that will eliminate show through when you scan it. Best, gordon http://thesoftpen.blogspot.com/
Hi Kat, I'm just looking through these posts and rediscovered your comment. I remember you and Mayday! It's funny how things connect. I was just going to put up a post about Zephyr. I'm sad to say she died just a month ago of really sudden and really awful cancer. I was just going to put up a few pictures of her. My dog Moxie is still doing well, though I think he's really lost without her. He doesn't seem to know what to do with himself and hates to leave me for even a minute now. But it's good to hear from you. I'd like to reconnect with all the pyrshep people I know one of these days. Thanks for the comment on my work! Hopefully we'll meet up again one of these days. Anik
Hi Gordon, I went to your website and I love your work. And I loved the link you sent of those sketches - they are absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the high praise!! What's more, I tried the scanning tip you gave me and it works wonderfully. Thanks for all the good stuff! Anik
Anik - would love to get back in contact. I lost my beloved aussie to cancer last year. I miss him every day and am still lost without his gentle soul.
I do have a younger pyr shep, he is a little over 18 months and is NOTHING like Mayday. He's confident, outgoing and very funny.
Please feel free to contact me at: furflying@yahoo.com whenever you get around to it.

Hey Anik!
My daughter is a graphic designer and told me she was a picture of on a design website of a lady with a pyr shep who had an unusual first name, Anik.
I can't imagine anyone else but you that fit that description. How is Zephyr doing? How are you doing?
I met you at a pyr shep national in canada one year with my then puppy, Mayday.
I really enjoyed viewing your work, thank you for putting this up on a webiste for everyone to enjoy.
