Sunday Sketches - The Squirrel

It's the time of year when the squirrels and chipmunks are scurrying around with their nuts, scampering up trees. I saw this squirrel in the road the other day and was inspired to paint him amidst some decorative grasses. He was holding a nut. It's an acrylic (6" x 6") on cardstock. Enjoy your Sunday!

Linking to Sunday Sketches, thanks to Alexandra for always graciously hosting.

He's adorable! I love the white paint you used. It really pops in the painting. I love when squirrels start running around gathering their winter food....

Love your squirrel! They're a bit of a challenge to draw! We have plenty around here. I like to watch them play in the tippy top of the trees. Have a great week, Christine! xo, janice
