The meerkat is my favorite of these sketches because, well, it's a meerkat! :) I think they are the most anthropomorphic animal I know. I can't see one standing as such without picturing a little, flowing, colorfully robed outfit and cap on it. lol All the sketches are just lovely!!

I feel like the fall has knocked me back to square one of healing. :( <br /><br />Yes, I feel so happy that I'm vegan and no longer contribute to the suffering of animals in the food industries.

The whole debacle was inexcusable, especially the way those injured pigs were treated with such apathy by the company. <br /><br />The mother pig and baby were done mostly with ballpoint pens but I should have mentioned that I did add a very light wash of watercolour to just a couple of spots on their bodies which tied all the pen colours together.Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4166133926661022482.post-8694947755234684912016-10-10T11:18:00.927+10:002016-10-10T11:18:00.927+10:00Thanks so much, Merle. :)Thanks so much, Merle. :)Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4166133926661022482.post-87360094920049613502016-10-10T11:17:39.934+10:002016-10-10T11:17:39.934+10:00Thanks, Barbara! :) I also liked the ink bottles b...Thanks, Barbara! :) I also liked the ink bottles because they somehow seemed more lively.

The way animals are raised for food and treated is why I initially went vegetarian. Absolutely great sketches!! :) Have a wonderful week, my friend. :)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4166133926661022482.post-67584974243930986732016-10-10T11:13:06.197+10:002016-10-10T11:13:06.197+10:00Thanks, Emma!

The are so smart, but factory farms treat pigs and cows so horrifically.
