Quick gesture sketches of a squirrel on my balcony eating the seeds I had set out for birds. Very lively and expressive little guy. He only held each position for roughly 2 seconds, so I didn’t have a lot of time to jot down more than the essence of the pose.

Drawing a Bear in 4 steps
From Illustration School: Let’s Draw Cute Animals by Sachiko Umoto. Part of an adorable series of drawing books. I just adore Sachiko Umoto’s charming illustrations and whimsical approach to making cute animals that’s simple enough for anyone to follow. Reminds me of the Ed Emberley drawing books I loved so much as a kid.
