I don’t know about you, but when I watch cows graze, I wish I could eat big mouthfuls of grass too~

Remember, remember!
The month of Bovember!
A time to post cows and whatnot!
I know of no reasons, why cows in all seasons,
should ever be forgot!

Here’s to hoping that your Halloween is filled with even a fraction of the mischief and fun that these little critters are having 🎃

If you haven't taken your yearly frolic with the little creatures of the night, this is your reminder~

Reminder that your local foxing society will be re-commencing their annual meetings this month! They meet from dusk to gloaming in the spooky, autumnal wood. This week’s topics of interest will be yowling, yammering, and, of course, yippering!

One last run with the friends of summer, as the sun starts to tilt away~

(this was a custom illustration from last year’s Kickstarter!)

I know in my heart that where I live we don’t get real fall weather until mid-November, but mentally, I am this pony.

Though it’s still quite hot, I saw the first patches of goldenrod blooming along the road this week – almost time to break out my plaid flannels and dance with the scarecrows~

Sometimes I just get a hankering to break out the Lisa Frank colors~

They're not exactly your traditional herd-mates, but they all seem to love a good frolic in the meadow.

While I recognize that it is currently 100 degrees outside, two weeks ago it rained and I got slightly chilly and that means it’s FALL!

I went to an Urban Sketchers meet-up over the summer at a car and toy museum – found some excellently weird looking little guys in the toy section~

Ok, your favorite dragon designs in media GO!
(runner up medals to Nico Martlet's creations, Falcore and the dragons from that one spread in Graeme Base's Animalia)

Some teeny little animals for a future project – felt so nostalgic drawing these because the size reminds me of Pokemon sprites :p

Little guy number eight, having a little nap – and that’s it! That’s all the little guys! It’s been a lovely Smaugust!
