A-Z Challenge

#AprilA2Z Art Sketching through the Alphabet “R”

Hello, Kitten & Dawgs, Easter was this past Sunday. A sketch of Christ’s resurrection is an awesome idea but my brain was thinking about animals and so with the letter “R” prompt, I sketched a Mr. Rabbit.

You can see he’s been hiding eggs for little boys and girls.

Hopefully, what I share with you every day will encourage you to do something that interests you that you’ve long put off because like me you just don’t think you can. My advice is, just do it! Maybe, you’ll be surprised. I know I was! 🙂

I can’t let y’all head into the weekend without giving you a bit of comic relief with some Friday Sillies and I sketched another cartoon for ya.

Wile E. Coyote is none the wiser as to what that clever Roadrunner is fixing to do. Kittens & Dawg, cover your ears for the big boom!

I’m heading off to link up with other fellow AtoZers and you’re invited to come along.  I’ll see you on tomorrow for the next installment of Art Sketching through the Alphabet!

    The rabbit is a cutey and I like the eggs I. The back. I love Wiley E and always wished he caught the road runner. I am bad…I know:)

      Donna, thanks for the re-visit and I agree it’s great to be back to sketching. I never did work like this when I was younger, so I’m delighted with my progression over the past few weeks. I’ll be by to see you soon. It looks like I need to do a little catch up with you.

  • Debbie D.

    That’s a very good rabbit drawing, Cathy.. Nice touch with the Easter eggs! 😀 Your Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner look exactly like the cartoons. Well done! Have a good weekend.

    • Cathy Kennedy

      John, the Roadrunner always has the last laugh, doesn’t he? I always thought the Roadrunner looked silly yet he outwits the coyote every time. 🙂

  • messymimi

    Your rabbit looks like he’s ready to hop off and do more deliveries, a very intent face. Wile E and Roadrunner always make me smile.

  • XmasDolly

    Sketching your way through from A to Z so proud of you & you’re doing a great job my friend… not sure if I’ll be around tomorrow because of Willy’s benefit, but I’ll try, but it’ll be late I’m sure. hugssssssss

    • Cathy Kennedy

      Marie, thank you for the sweet compliment. Don’t worry if you can’t visit tomorrow, I understand. I hope the fundraiser goes great! Have a good weekend, dearie!

    Hi Cathy

    Wonderful rabbit sketch. I remember watching Wyle E Coyote and Road Runner as a kid. Great memories. Thanks for that! See you tomorrow, looking forward to your ‘S’ Sketch

      Mary, I figured most of my readers are old enough to appreciate Wyle E. Coyote & Road Runner sketch. I believe I misspelled both in my post and comments. *bang head on wall* Anywho, thanks for checking out today’s illustration, my friend – you rock!

  • lorigg

    I like both the rabbit and the roadrunner. Two different styles yet they are both fun. Thank you for sharing them with us and putting a smile on our face.

    • Cathy Kennedy

      Nick, I haven’t heard of Watership Down but I gathered that’s a program aired in the UK. I did see some images of the rabbit and I see why you think my rabbit reminds you of the rabbits in this show. 🙂 Thanks for visiting. Have a good weekend!

  • pam

    Grew up with those to silly critters! Love it. And to think that today they call the Roadrunner and Coyote a bad cartoon cause of the violent behavior of both. I turned out okay watching it! Great drawings! Think I am heading to the store for pencils…thanks I needed another hobby!!haha

    • Cathy Kennedy

      Pam, I think most of turned out just fine watch those hilarious, outrageous, over-the-top cartoons. No one in our generation is jumping off mountains or trying to blow up the neighbor’s cat or light a match in a room full of explosives. We know all that is stupid! Thanks for complimenting my work. I can’t wait to see your sketches now. 🙂

    • Cathy Kennedy

      Linda, The Looney Tunes was a favorite of mine, especially Bugs Bunny. It makes me wonder how we ever survived our childhood watching the violent antics of Wylie Coyote, though. lol Thanks for visiting.

    Hi, Cathy!

    You did it again, dear friend – two more excellent sketches! That bunny rabbit might be the most naturally rendered animal you have presented so far. Once again I look at the eyes and they are kind, gentle and innocent. You have a gift for conveying that impression in the eyes of your subjects. His size, shape and stance all look correct and I appreciate the added elements within the frame, the Easter eggs, tulips, tree, hills and clouds. The Roadrunner and Wylie Coyote drawing is also wonderful and whimsical (a-mewsing). Great job, Cathy!

    As promised, Kathleen Mae left a lovely reply to your comment on my blog last evening. I am sure you will want to read it.

    Have an awesome Friday, dear friend Cathy!

    • Cathy Kennedy

      Tom,

      I’m glad you found time to stop in this morning. I agree my rabbit sketch is my most realistic animal drawing yet. Sketching Wylie Coyote and the Roadrunner was pure fun! I’ll stop by to read Kathleen’s comment in just a bit. Have a good day, dear friend!

    • Cathy Kennedy

      Kimberly, I’m so glad you joined me today. Sketching my way through the alphabet has been a fun experience and one I didn’t know if I could pull off. Taking this step has fueled me to wanting to do more. Hopefully, I’ll keep improving with every illustration I create. 🙂

  • Arlee Bird

    The resurrection picture would have been pretty amazing, but the rabbit is nice. The resurrection would have been intense so maybe you can save that for something more epic later.
