Dogs Eating Tacos

Huh...that subject sounds kind of like a lost painting by CM Coolidge.

Anyway, the last suggestion I got for the recent HADSSD, made by crazykiltman, was for a dog eating a taco. So here it is:



If anyone else has any ideas for things for me to draw in my sketchbook, by all means feel free to make a suggestion.

I'll be doing at least one sketch a week in any case, thanks to something I found out about through a recent entry in ceruleanst's LiveJournal: Illustration Friday. Basically, the idea is that every Monday a topic is chosen, and every Friday participants post an illustration of that topic.

This week's topic was "gluttony". I figured I found out about this too late to do anything about it this week, but then I realized...hey, I was drawing a dog eating a taco anyway. It could be eating the taco gluttonously, and I'd kill two birds with one stone.

Except that by the time I realized this I had already almost finished drawing the dog eating the taco, and it wasn't eating it particularly gluttonously.

But I had finished that early enough I still had time left over for another sketch, so I decided to draw another dog eating a taco. But this time, so it would be illustrative of gluttony, it would be...a really big taco.

Yeah.

So here's that:



The dog turned out looking kinda weird. As in, not all that much like a dog. Granted, this was done without reference material while sitting on a train, but still...you'd think I'd know what a dog looked like well enough to draw one without having to have a picture of one in front of me. Apparently not, though. Ah, well...

(I also realized I had neglected to sign either of my two previous sketches. I made sure to rectify that omission this time. Not that I suppose it really matters, but...well, there it is.)
