December Doodle – Doggie Doodle

"Doggie Doodle" Drawing by BZTAT

A Facebook friend has a pup named Zorro. She offered him up as a model, so here he is as today’s December Doodle!

This drawing is a doodle, which is, according to Wikipedia, “an unfocused drawing made while a person’s attention is otherwise occupied. Doodles are simple drawings that can have concrete representational meaning or may just be abstract shapes.” My doodles often have some focus to them, but they are less formal than a regular drawing. Sometimes the images are somewhat cartoonish and sometimes they are just scribbles and line formations.

For each day from Dec. 1 – 15 (2011) I will make a December Doodle drawing and hold an auction for it here on the blog. These drawings will make nice gifts, and if you want, I will gift wrap and mail to whomever you would like the gift(s) to go. And since animals always are in greater need as winter takes hold, I will donate 10% of the proceeds to a registered animal charity.

Which charity? You help me decide! Post the charity that you would like me to support on my Facebook Fanpage, and I will randomly select from all the submissions on Dec. 15, 2011. (Charities must be for animal rescue, in the United States, and must have a 501(c) non-profit status.)

Here it is – the first of the December Doodles! Since I get a wild response from my turtle loving friends every time I draw a turtle, I decided to make an amphibious doodle for the holidays!

The Okey’s October daily artwork promotion to raise money for my latest Okey’s Promise: Celebrating the Human – Animal Bond project is complete, however, there are still some auctions running. Yesterday’s auction will be active until tonight (11/1/11) at 10pm ET, and I have reopened bids until Wednesday, Wed. 11/2/11 at 10pm ET on the few artworks that did not receive bids by the deadline. Those include works from the following dates: 10/28/11, 10/27/11, 10/25/11, and 10/11/11.

Don’t forget, everyone who bids on one of the Okey’s October artworks here on the blog (during the announced bidding time frames) will be entered into a contest for a free artwork! You don’t have to win a bid, just make a bid. All bidders will be entered into a random drawing for a special artwork, which will be selected and announced the day after the end of all auctions.

Thanks for following and bidding on the auctions! And thanks to you, we have raised over $2,000 for Okey’s Promise! Remember, you can donate to the project without participating in an auction by using the ChipIn widget in the right sidebar.
