Portrait Painting

Portrait painting is quite a skill! So is being able to sit still for a portrait painting. Because you could be spending that time eating snacks, y'know?

 

Safari Animal Pals Coloring!

It’s been too hot where I live and I also visited a lot of animals recently at various places! It made me think of how fun it would be for the Princess Pups to go on a safari adventure, which made for a great theme for this month’s coloring pages! Plus, it meant I got to draw the pups in safari vests and hats!

In this month’s first coloring page, TeaCup Pup, Scruffy Pup, and Corgi Pup are visiting a baby giraffe! They also are feeding it, which I got to do with my kiddo a few weeks ago at our zoo in St. Louis! (The name of one of the giraffes we fed was Honey, she was so cute!) Corgi Pup is quite astounded at the height of the baby giraffe that TeaCup Pup and Scruffy Pup are feeding a giant lettuce leaf.

Another animal event I had recently was feeding parakeets, which lead to drawing Fluff Pup and Pug Pup visiting various birdies that may or may not be parakeets? I kinda…winged it a bit on the bird anatomy (see what I did there?) While Fluff Pup is happy to stay on the ground and observe with binoculars, Pug Pup seems to be wanting to get extra close!

Pug Pup might make that branch break if she’s not careful!

Here’s a timelapse for the pups and the baby giraffe coloring page. I found myself adjusting the legs of the giraffe a few times over! If you need more coloring pages, be sure to visit the Coloring Pages section to grab previous sheets!

Beach Friends Coloring Fun!

It’s summer! The pups have gone to the beach again for coloring goodness! And because it’s the coloring ideas that popped out of my sketchbook doodles saying “Yes! Draw these ideas!” 🙂 This month’s first coloring page features Corgi Pup, Fluff Pup and TeaCup Pup hanging out with a sea lion! They all want to learn how to balance a ball on their nose, but they each have a different range of size that they’re practicing with!

Meanwhile, Scruffy Pup has found a new pal in the form of a wandering hermit crab! I’ve always kinda wanted a hermit crab and after looking at reference images for them to draw one…I still do! But we have three pets in our house currently that are all much bigger than a hermit crab. (I don’t want to have to worry about one of them trying to eat it! ) It looks like Pug Pup is also on the beach near Scruffy Pup, but is kinda stuck in the sand? She’s happy with it though!

This month’s timelapse was hard to pick, but I really like how the hermit crab turned out so that’s the one I’m posting! Originally, I was going to go closer to my sketch from my sketchbook and just have Scruffy Pup with the hermit crab. But the page felt too empty, and since Pug Pup didn’t make an appearance in the sea lion page, I wanted her included here! Don’t forget if you need other coloring pages besides these newest ones, you can nab them on the Coloring Pages section!

Even MORE Space Based Coloring Pages

The Space Pups, those good sibling pals of the Princess Pups, will be making another appearance soon in the comic! So they get to star in this month’s coloring pages! They made an appearance in February’s coloring pages in case you missed it and this time they’re having more spacey adventures!

In our first coloring page, the Space Pups take a sweet ride on a shooting star through space! They even pass one of their alien pals riding on a different star! Just make sure the lil’ dude eats the correct food…

In the other page I created for this month, the Space Pups are hard at work in their lab! They’re digging through boxes to find just the right parts for their spaceship repairs.

What parts do the Space Pups need for their rocket? The parts that distribute snacks?

I’ve also started prep work to collect another batch of Princess Pups coloring pages into another full coloring book, where there will be extra activities, including some featuring the Space Pups! No set date yet since I’m in the early planning stages, so for now keep heading to the coloring pages section to get the latest pages and any you’ve missed!

Here’s a swell timelapse of the shooting star coloring page. I like this one so much, I’m going to see if I can color it myself and make some stickers 🙂

Flowers and Froggys to Color?!

Last month I got sidetracked from making coloring pages by strep throat! I don’t recommend it, so don’t let allergies build up irritation that allowes for strep! Instead, have your flowers in the form of…Scruffy Pup dressed up as a giant flower?

Meanwhile, we got enough rain to assume that frogs were comfy where I live which made me think that Pug Pup might try to have a staring contest with a frog. Or maybe she might just like to stare at one. Either way, you could color it!

If you need more coloring pages, you can always head over to the Coloring Pages section to download to your heart’s content!

This month’s timelapse of the first coloring page is below! I originally doodled the idea in my sketchbook but recreated it later in the Clip Studio.
