Yawning Baby
This is day 25 of the A to Z Challenge. The end is near! I hope y’all have enjoyed my Pencil Sketch Inspired Procreate Recreation Art Sketch series. I’m super sorry for not visiting as promised. There has been a lot of behind the scenes going-ons keeping me from participating fully, so instead of bailing on the challenge I decided to get my illustrations done and try to make amends later on. We’ll see how that goes but for now here’s today’s fresh look at an old drawing of a yawning baby.
You’ll find others participating in the challenge on the master list at the A2Z headquarters. Thank you for including me in your day. I wanted to find a song with or about yawning and I found one by Sung Dam, Yawning. The music has a nice vibe but it really doesn’t work with my illustration the way I want, so I thought a lullaby would be lovely and found the Baby Relax Channel on YouTube with Lullaby Mozart for Babies. You don’t have to be an infant to enjoy the soothing, sweet sound of this music playing. This is CAAC signing off, I’ll be back tomorrow to close out the month and this blogfest with the last letter of the alphabet!

Love your sketches, but coloring them brings them to life. Beautiful.
Thanks for the update of Marie. I pray for her every day.
Have a fabulous day and weekend, Cathy. Love and hugs. ♥

Hi, Cathy!
Happy Friday Y-Day, dear friend!
Awww… I just wanna smooch that yawning baby, but he’d probably wake up and start to cry. I actually don’t remember the original sketch, but love the transformation to color. Another good caption for the image would be “Somebody’s Sleepy.” My mother and aunts used to say that to us kids whenever we started to whine about something or even if we were laughing, squealing, “having too much fun” and annoying the adults. Anyway, I like your yawning baby and wish I could tickle his belly, (but he’d probably spit-up on me).
After the grueling A to Z Challenge, I think we could all use a 12 minute “time-out” and listen to the relaxing, calming Lullaby Mozart for Babies. It is a refreshing change from rock and pop. It only takes a couple seconds of that gentle melody to sweep you back to your earliest awareness and start lulling you to sleep. Thanks for posting it!
I know you are dealing with important domestic matters behind the scenes. That’s tough when you are trying to stay focused on the annual Challenge. I hope you get your project done over the weekend. Have a good Friday, dear friend Cathy, and I’ll be back tomorrow to cheer you on as you cross the A to Z finish line!
